Tallahassee, FL (Sports Network) - Drew Weatherford threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns in leading the Florida State Seminoles to a come-from-behind, 34-24 win over the visiting UAB Blazers in a non-conference affair.

Weatherford was 22-of-35 passing for the Seminoles (1-1), who trailed by a two- touchdown margin in the second quarter. Although Weatherford was not sacked in the game, he did throw a first-quarter interception that was returned for a touchdown. He hooked up with Greg Carr four times for 82 yards and a touchdown.

For UAB (0-2), Sam Hunt finished the night 17-of-35 for 226 yards, two touchdowns (one rushing) and one interception. His favorite target, Joe Webb, caught six passes for 89 yards and a score.

The Blazers got on the board first, when Swayze Waters booted a 27-yard field goal with 11:08 to play in the first quarter.

Less than a minute later, UAB went on top, 10-0, after Will Dunbar stepped in front of a Weatherford pass and returned it 21 yards for a TD.

Later in the quarter, the Seminoles narrowed the gap to 10-3 on a 28-yard field goal by Gary Cismesia.
