FSU football: Best and worst case scenarios for 2024 schedule
By Kelvin Hunt
Best Case Scenario
These are the games where FSU will be an underdog or potential underdog depending on how the first few games shake out:
- Notre Dame
- Clemson
- Miami
These are the games where FSU will be sizable betting favorites(10+ points):
- Georgia Tech
- Boston College
- Duke
- California
- Charleston Southern
- Florida(counting on UF imploding and Billy Napier getting fired)
These are the games where it’ll likely be a toss-up or less than a -9.5 betting spread:
- North Carolina
- SMU
- Memphis
I expect FSU to win its first five games, with the toughest test coming against Clemson. If FSU wins that game, it puts them in the driver's seat with two more tough games on the road against Miami and Notre Dame. In a perfect world(like last year), FSU would win all of its games, but the odds they'll repeat that feat are not in their favor. Let's say they beat Miami for the fourth consecutive year and lose a competitive game on the road against Notre Dame. That puts their record at 9-1 with two games remaining against Charleston Southern and Florida. I expect FSU to win both games, which puts them at (11-1, 8-0 ACC) competing for another ACC Championship.
