The FSU football offense was ranked No. 2 overall via advanced metrics. We take a look at the top five improvements needed in 2017 to win it all.

The FSU football offense returns an important piece from last season in redshirt sophomore quarterback Deondre Francois. The offensive line could be better if players fully recover from injuries and a couple of guys step up.
