TALLAHASSEE, Fla.(AP) -- Florida State quarterback Christian
Ponder's bruised ribs were feeling better than even he expected.
Florida State spokesman Bob Thomas says Ponder told him on
Sunday that his condition was improved.
Ponder, who ranks third nationally in total offense per game,
was injured early in Saturday's 45-42 win over North Carolina
State, but played with the pain.
Coach Bobby Bowden said coaches will monitor Ponder closely at
practice this week to see if the injury effects his throwing
motion.
The Seminoles (4-4, 2-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) play Clemson
(5-3, 3-2) on Saturday and need a victory to keep alive any
hopes of winning their division and sneaking into the ACC title
game next month in Tampa.
