FSU football: 5 major predictions for back half of 2024 regular season
By Kelvin Hunt
Offense will average 24+ ppg in over final six games
Some may think I'm basing this solely on Brock Glenn replacing DJ Uiagalelei at quarterback. That is a major factor, but most of it centers around how FSU matches up with the teams on the back half of the schedule.
Notre Dame will have the best defense that FSU will face over the final six games. Duke, North Carolina, Charleston Southern, and Florida do not have great defenses. Miami has a solid defense, but we've seen it get lit up by teams who don't necessarily have good or great offenses.
FSU coaches have had a week to self-scout and get back to the fundamentals. Some guys who had bumps and bruises have had time to heal up. Brock Glenn will have had two more weeks to get first-team reps and continue building rapport with the starters. FSU has started a shift towards more talented young guys playing, and the additional reps should help the transition on the field.
The combination of favorable matchups and these other aspects leads me to believe we'll see an improved offense in the back half of the schedule.
