A lot of metrics like their defense and OL. I’ll post some more of Steele’s stuff tomorrow, but I was shocked seeing how highly a lot of metrics think of some key positions (other town QB and WR). SP+ loves them as a consensus T-15 team, so does Bill Connelly and FPI.Perhaps, I’m in denial but I don’t understand the FSU hype, at all. SMU and Clemson have a better shot at making the ship game, imo.
They’re going to grind out low scoring games, run the ball a ton with DJ and chew clock. If they get into shootouts, they lose. If they go down 14+ and have to change the gameplan, they lose. DJ isn’t good enough to bring them back.
A lot of metrics like Clemson though, FSU vs Clemson early in the year will Be a pivotal one to see who has the inside track to the ACCCG. Clemson is in a good buy-low spot due to the chaos last year, but again the advanced stats love their defense. Good group of WRs and they haven’t given up on Garrett Riley figuring out the offense, it’s basically up to Klubnik and if he can live up to his potential..
