FSU focused on improving run defense ahead of season opener

Florida State University is working to enhance its run defense as the season opener against New Mexico State approaches on August 29. Edge coach Nick Williams noted inconsistencies in the run defense last year, particularly highlighted by a 40-21 loss against Florida where they allowed 272 rushing yards. Williams emphasized the importance of consistency and has acknowledged a team effort in correcting mistakes. The Seminoles, who struggled against the run last season, face a challenging schedule starting with the Aggies and followed by SMU in week two.
