RB OUSMANE KROMAH

Florida State's football coaching staff made an attempt to hype up the rushing attack. After the 2023 season's success with Trey Benson and the veteran offensive line that the Seminoles possessed in 2024, I thought it was a slam dunk that Florida State would be able to run the football.

However, the Seminoles were only able to average 89.3 rushing yards per game, which was one of the worst in all of college football. 2025 is a new year where the coaching staff added former Oklahoma transfer Gavin Sawchuk and former four-star prospect Ousmane Kromah to the position group.

Many fans were nervous that Kromah wouldn't be up to speed since he enrolled in the summer, but the Georgia native has been as advertised. I cannot wait until the true freshman stiff arms an Alabama defender. In all seriousness, the highlight of him running over veteran linebacker Blake Nichelson in the fall camp video was telling of how he is as a player.

True freshman Cam Akers had 1,024 rushing yards and seven touchdowns in 2017, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Kromah have a similar impact.
