2025 Florida State Seminoles CFB Betting Lines
Following a spectacular 2023 season that concluded with an undefeated regular season record and an ACC title, it was widely believed that Mike Norvell had proven to be the answer as head coach of the Florida State Seminoles. Norvell inherited a nuclear waste dump upon his arrival for the 2020 season. Attitudes were bad, and there were plenty of locker room lawyers. But Norvell broke through with a 10-3 season in 2022 and followed that up with a 13-1 campaign in 2023. Most fans believe that Florida State deserved to be in the College Football Playoff instead of Alabama, and it's something that FSU fans will never forgive or forget. But the good news was that Norvell’s program had been validated. Or so it seemed. However, the 2024 season was an utter catastrophe, ending with a 2-10 record and a severe loss of credibility for Norvell.
Norvell relied too heavily on the transfer portal for his success, sacrificing recruiting in the process. Last year, the bill came due. Now, Norvell and his program need to redeem themselves. The jury is out as to whether the Seminoles can return to glory in 2025.

2025 Florida State Seminoles Preview
From 13-1 and winning the ACC in 2023 to 2-10 last season, Florida State has experienced a crazy swing in performance in just two years. Last season’s disaster prompted coach Mike Norvell to make major staff changes, and another sizable portal class is coming to Tallahassee to help the program get back on track.
A lackluster offense (15.4 points a game) was primarily to blame for the ‘Noles' decline. Whether it was lackluster play by the quarterbacks, poor performance by the offensive line, or receivers failing to get open, every area of the offense contributed to the issues. Solving all the issues in one offseason is impossible. Still, Norvell took steps to find improvement by landing UCF head coach Gus Malzahn as the new play-caller and selecting quarterback Thomas Castellanos (Boston College) from the transfer portal to direct the offense. Expect transfers (Duce Robinson and Squirrel White) to improve the receiving corps, while portal additions from ‘25 could take four starting spots on the offensive line.
The offense wasn’t the only area in which Florida State underachieved last season. After limiting teams to 19.3 points a game in 2023, the Seminoles allowed 28 a contest and struggled to get off the field on third downs. New coordinator Tony White is one of the offseason's top hires and won’t lack talent to generate improvement. Up front, Darrell Jackson and James Williams should be All-ACC performers. The linebacker play should improve thanks to transfers and the development of Omar Graham. Cornerback Jeremiah Wilson was a key spring pickup out of the portal.
No, this won’t be like 2024, but it won’t quite be like 2023, either. Even with the Alabama game, it’ll be a strong start - it’ll lose to the Tide and flip a coin on Miami, but the end of November will be a bear.
This will truly be a wait-and-see team, but with this schedule and this program, anything less than 8-4 won’t do.

The Florida State Seminoles are a modern power with three national championships (1993, 1999, 2013). The Seminoles have won 18 conference championships and six division titles. They are a proud program with a passionate fan base that will travel.
The late great Booby Bowden built the program into a national powerhouse from 1976 through 2009. Bowden is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. Great Seminole players include Fred Biletnikoff, Deion Sanders, Charlie Ward, and Jameis Winston.
Before the arrival of Bowden, Florida State toiled in relative obscurity. They never finished in the Top 10 from the program’s founding in 1954 until 1977, when Bowden led them to a final ranking of 14th. From 1987 through 2000, Bowden led the Seminoles to Top 5 or better finishes every season.
Jimbo Fisher led Florida State to its last national championship but left in 2017, reportedly out of frustration with his relationship with the administration.
