Florida State fans had every right to be embarrassed with the way their team played in the second half of the Rose Bowl. They did not, however, have the right to express their anger by destroying the property of players.
According to Florida State linebacker Anthony Valdes, several players returned to Tallahassee the day after their loss to Oregon and found that their cars had been scratched and tires slashed.
People actually keyd our cars and slashed our tires

As Deadspin noted, at least one FSU fan also tweeted that their car tire had been slashed, though the tweet was later deleted.
Again, the Seminoles played horribly. If they hadn’t, Jimbo Fisher would have never had this exchange with Jameis Winston. But if someone went around vandalizing cars because Florida State got blown out by Oregon, that person needs to get a life.
