Florida State football has had an up-and-down season in 2025, where they defeated the likes of Alabama in the opener, but then lost to an underwhelming Stanford squad on the road.
The victory over the Crimson Tide seem to put unreasonable expectations on the program that they realistically could not achieve. However, in the offseason, many around the program thought that this would be a 7/8 win football team.
Florida State is sitting at 5-5 with games against North Carolina State and Florida remaining. The problem is that the Seminoles have not won a road game since the 2023 meeting against the arch-rival Gators.
