FSU football will face some solid teams in 2021, but some are getting too much love from the media. Here are my three most overrated teams FSU will face.

The Noles have done themselves no favors the past few years playing ridiculously tough schedules while not getting rewarded for it.

Last year’s abbreviated schedule was tough as usual, but not having an offseason made it more difficult than it should have been.

FSU’s season has been over after the first month or so the past few years, but the 2021 schedule finally gives them a chance for sustained success beyond September.

In the earlier part of the last 10 years, FSU football fans would look at this schedule and say there are 2-3 competitive games on it.

The schedule has some tricky games because we don’t know what to expect from the Noles after last season’s COVID-influenced season.

FSU’s performance against Notre Dame in the opener will tell us a lot about this program as a whole.

Although we don’t know what to expect from the Noles, I expect the team to improve over last year. Will that result in more than three wins? I think so, and there are teams on the schedule getting too much respect going into the season.
