It's Florida State vs. Wake Forest in Week 10 of the 2025 college football season. Who wins? See our predictions and picks, plus odds for the game.

Outside of those within the Florida State football program, very few people have been in Mike Norvell’s corner of late. Just about everyone was when he won 19 straight games and led the Seminoles to their first ACC championship since 2014.

FSU celebrated a dominant win over Wake Forest, but whether it is good enough to justify giving Norvell a seventh year remains uncertain

But now that the college football regular season is just over halfway finished, Florida State's biggest surprise this year was perhaps its biggest weakness during the 2024 season (and there were a lot of weaknesses last year). Despite being 3-4, the Seminoles possess the second-best offense in the country in terms of total offense.

Florida State's athletic director publicly supported head football coach Mike Norvell despite a four-game losing streak. Financial constraints, including a potential $59 million buyout and other capital projects, complicate the decision to fire Norvell.
