FSU football: 5 narratives Mike Norvell destroyed in 2023

Final Thoughts

I know the Orange Bowl will take place next week, and FSU is a heavy-betting underdog, with tons of players opting out to declare for the NFL Draft or entering the transfer portal. This game means nothing since they got robbed of their opportunity to compete for a spot in the National Championship game. Defeating Georgia wouldn't have changed anything, because we would have heard the usual SEC excuse they were not motivated to play. There will be a ton of young and talented FSU guys playing in that Orange Bowl.

However, it won't be close to the team that went 13-0. I'm sure those guys will go out and compete like Mike Norvell's teams do. However, I hope you don't allow the results of that game to tarnish everything this team achieved. The narratives discussed here are no more, and Mike Norvell must continue to build on the foundation set over the past four years. FSU looks to be among the top programs for the foreseeable future, and it's largely because they have the right man for the job.
