Marco Rubio is using his presidential campaign trail to dump on Florida State

Marco Rubio, a U.S. senator from Florida running for President, gave his firm stance on the Florida-Florida State rivalry while talking to Iowa’s KXNO 1460 AM, which you can hear around the 1:50 mark:

“Look, I don’t have anything against Florida State. I think there has to be a school where people who can’t get into Florida can go to college.”

Oooooohhh buuuurn. Although, with Rubio being a University of Florida and a University of Miami alum, this isn’t too surprising. Pretty good one, senator.

Also of note: this isn’t his first time being involved with a sports-politics collision!
