FSU football gave up 30 passing touchdowns and 3,224 passing yards last season. Both are the most of any FSU defense in over a decade while allowing opposing offenses to average 31.5 ypg.
That’s also the most points allowed average since I can remember and possibly ever. I expected the FSU defense to give up big plays here and there because of the emphasis on stopping the run.
The cornerbacks had their struggles at times for sure, but one of the biggest culprits was the safety position.
The personnel struggled in the scheme and was exposed as the Noles progressed through the season against better teams.
