FSU defense should average no more than 24 ppg allowed

The FSU defense hasn't been great, but despite its flaws, have only allowed one team to score over 30 points(and some of that was the FSU offense turning the ball over three times. Other than their struggles on third down and against dual-threat QBs, the FSU defense has been solid and played well enough for FSU to win at least three games, and likely four.

However, they've gotten zero help from the offense and have not had much to play for. Frankly, I'm amazed they haven't downright quit because the offense can't score and often takes no time off of the clock with their possessions.

The offenses FSU will face in the back half are manageable for the most part. Duke, North Carolina, and Charleston Southern have offenses outside the top 40. Notre Dame or Florida's offense isn't elite and Miami's offense isn't elite if you can get pressure on Cam Ward.

If FSU's offense can start to score 24+ points, I think it'll help this FSU defense out a ton.
