Florida State put forth its most disappointing performance of the season on Saturday night as the Seminoles were ran over in Dallas to the tune of a 42-16 loss. It was one of the largest margins of defeat that FSU has faced in years under head coach Mike Norvell as a highly anticipated campaign in Tallahassee continues to go down the drain.

Nothing will get easier from here as Florida State enters the toughest part of its 2024 schedule, starting with a home game against Clemson. The Tigers will certainly be looking for revenge after falling to FSU for the first time in nine years last season.

On Monday, the Seminoles released their updated depth chart prior to the contest against Clemson. Florida State made a few changes to the two-deep to note on.

The most significant change is that redshirt freshman quarterback Brock Glenn is now listed as a co-starter with DJ Uiagalelei. Glenn entered Saturday's loss late in the game following a pick-six from Uiagalelei. At the time, trainers were spotted checking out Uiagalelei's hand and Norvell commented on the injury after the game. It remains to be seen if the veteran will miss time.

Outside of that, redshirt senior Kentron Poitier is now a co-starter with Hykeem Williams at one of the three wide receiver spots. Deuce Spann is no longer on the depth chart Plus, Landen Thomas and Brian Courtney have been elevated to co-starters with Kyle Morlock at tight end. Jackson West is no longer listed at the position.

To round out the switches on offense, redshirt junior Bryson Estes is listed as a co-starter with Keiondre Jones at left guard while redshirt freshman Andre' Otto is now a co-starter with TJ Ferguson at the other guard spot. Robert Scott is now a co-backup at left tackle with Lucas Simmons and Richie Leonard IV is no longer on the two deep.

On defense, redshirt freshman Edwin Joseph is now the co-starter with veteran Kevin Knowles II at the nickel position. Earl Little Jr. moves ahead of Davonte Brown at free safety.

The only other change was true freshman Lawayne McCoy becoming the lone starter at punt returner.
