OFFENSE HAS A HEARTBEAT

Florida State's offense has let them down this year. The Seminoles had to replace the likes of Jordan Travis, Trey Benson, Keon Coleman, Johnny Wilson, and Jaheim Bell in 2023.

Seminole fans thought that the offense would not take as much of a step back in 2024 by adding pieces such as DJ Uiagalelei, Roydell Williams, Malik Benson, and Jalen Brown. That could not be further from the truth.

Uiagalelei suffered an injury to his finger on his throwing hand and will likely miss the remainder of 2024. Redshirt freshman Brock Glenn and true freshman Luke Kromenhoek have been forced into action before the coaching staff would have liked.

Florida State's offense has not scored 20+ points since their season opener in Dublin, Ireland, versus Georgia Tech. North Carolina's defense has been prone to allow opportunities to opposing teams, such as allowing 70 points against James Madison.

It would be great to see the Seminoles get over 20+ points in this one.
