Florida State came into the 2019 season with renewed optimism after missing out on the postseason for the first time in 36 years.
While having the athletes to compete with any roster in the nation, the Seminoles’ problems in 2018 were glaring: horrendous offensive line play, a lack of discipline and overall lacking any sense of urgency when adversity hit. In response, Florida State hired Houston offensive coordinator Kendal Briles hoping to infuse some life into an offense that ranked 112th in scoring and averaged 22 points per game last season.
It seems an offseason of change hasn’t done anything for those problems as Florida State blew two 18-point leads on Saturday, losing to Boise State 36–31 in a game that was moved from Jacksonville to Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee because of the Hurricane Dorian.
