Florida State is one of four ACC teams inside the top-25 alongside Clemson (11), Miami (18), and North Carolina State (22). The Seminoles took down the Tigers and Hurricanes en route to winning their first ACC Championship in nine years in 2023. The program will also matchup with the Fighting Irish, who came in at No. 7, in November.

There are only a couple of weeks remaining until FSU opens its campaign against Georgia Tech in Ireland on August 24. The Seminoles will look a lot different this season with the team replacing 14 starters across both sides of the ball, including a new starting quarterback, running back, top-two wide receivers, tight end, defensive end, both linebacker spots, and three positions in the defensive backfield.
