FSU football will welcome a new offense in 2019. Who are the top defenses they’ll go up against?

FSU football fans should be excited about how the offense will look under the full control of Kendal Briles and Randy Clements.

The two have been successful everywhere they have coached together with instant impact in their first year.

I documented how Kendal Briles has a median increase of 16 percent the last two years when it comes to yards per play.

He’s also averaged over a 50 percent increase in points per game each of the last two years at different stops.

That’s the key, he’s having this type of impact in year one of implementing his offense. Oh, and he’s been doing it with less talented players.

The biggest question mark is the FSU offensive line, but I’m expecting the synergy and coaching experience between Randy Clements and Kendal Briles to be a difference maker.

Does FSU have to face a murderer’s row of defenses in 2019? It’s an interesting list with some teams losing quite a bit from last year.

Let’s take a look at our top five defenses Kendal Briles will have to scheme for in 2019.
