Florida State football beat Alabama on Saturday night by a score of 31-17. I know that the Seminoles want to focus on East Texas A&M and not lose their edge and motivation.
It happened in 2021 after they lost a close one to Notre Dame in overtime, and then ended up losing heartbreakingly to FCS opponent Jacksonville State. You could even look at the 2022 campaign, where Florida State started the season where they beat LSU, Louisville, and Boston College, but then they lost three straight games to Wake Forest, NC State, and Clemson.
Head football coach Mike Norvell and this staff have this squad locked into every matchup week by week.
