Florida State Football: Early game-by-game predictions

Vs. Clemson (L)

Boy, the punches just keep on coming. The Tigers certainly struggled with Florida State a great deal last season, but that was before they found their rhythm on the way to finishing their slate at a respectable 10-3.

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has had his fair share of struggles as of recently, losing both coordinators and players. However, his Tigers are still expected to be a top-tier contender in the ACC for 2022. And especially with who all they will face leading up to this game, the Seminoles will fail to stay in Clemson’s way for long.

(3-4)

Vs. Georgia Tech (W)

Finally, we can see a rainbow through the storm. Last season saw Georgia Tech as one of the worst teams in the ACC, and this next time around should see the exact same thing.

The Noles will be coming off of their second bye week to host the Yellow Jackets, and they will be long overdue for a punching bag game. Most GT fans will probably end up praying for this one to end as soon as possible.

(4-4)

@ Miami (L)

Nothing about this matchup leaves the Seminoles with a positive outlook when entering it. Yes, they won the 2021 battle, but the Hurricanes have both hired Mario Cristobal as head coach and held the title for best recruiting class in the state of Florida since then. Not only that, but they also looked like the tougher team last year anyway.

Due to the stigma of any big rivalry, the game will probably be closer than it should be. However, Miami should still be the victor by the time the game clock hits all zeros.

(4-5)
