They still did a pretty good job against FSU, but the few times they were penetrated, or thrown over on crossing routes, Carter over-persued, kept his pad level too high, and just flat out wasn't strong enough.
On a related note, I'm really looking forward to Henry returning. Brinkley was in position on a long bomb by FSU, but barely put up any resistance on the ball in the air. Henry has a bit more size, athleticism, (still after the ACL I hope) and competitiveness. Long term I'm not too concerned about having to replace Brinkley. The answers are within.

is Henry going to be back for the Michigan game?
