Observations from Florida State’s anemic offensive performance at Syracuse

Three games into the season we have a clear understanding of what Florida State’s offense is. They’re simply not good right now.

In eight quarters of ACC football, Florida State has managed just ONE offensive touchdown. The running lanes are not there for the running backs, as the backup offensive linemen are not ready.

With the injuries sustained along the line, FSU doesn’t have anyone who can play FBS level offensive tackle. In the rare instances when there is time to throw, Deondre Francois is missing wide open throws. It seems the constant pressure/hits are adding up, and he’s becoming gun-shy, not that you can necessarily blame him.
