Florida State is preparing for the 2026 NCAAF season, starting with quarterback Ashton Daniels under head coach Mike Norvell. The Seminoles, who have struggled with a 7-17 record over the past two years, aim for a successful season to avoid the consequences of continued underperformance. They hope to improve on their previous two seasons and secure a bowl game appearance, leveraging a returning core of talented players. Daniels, now tasked with leading the offense, must demonstrate better decision-making, especially given his previous challenges with deep passes. FSU's success hinges on both the quarterback's performance and the defense's potential improvements under new coordinator Tony White.
