Watching the Gus Malzahn offense at Florida State in 2025 was a frustrating experience. At times, it looked like Gus Malzahn was in his prime, and other times, his offense was stuck in the 1950s.
Was his offense terrible? There was an improvement over 2024, no question, but the stats get propped up by FSU beating up on East Texas A&M and Kent State:
FSU averaged 25.3 ppg this year when you remove the two cupcakes and 21.8 over the final six games with teams who had an average FEI defensive ranking of 54 nationally.
