Florida State University (FSU) enters its season opener as a 31.5-point favorite against New Mexico State on August 27, 2026. Head coach Mike Norvell has all three running backs available for this matchup, with Tre Wisner expected to return after injuries sidelined him during preseason scrimmages. Unlike previous seasons, FSU will not release a depth chart, promoting competition among players.
