Mike Norvell reviews Florida State performance after New Mexico State win
Summary

Florida State head coach Mike Norvell met with media on Tuesday to discuss his team’s season-opening victory over the New Mexico State Aggies. The Seminoles finished the contest with a three-score win, though Norvell noted several areas for technical and communication improvements following a review of the game film. Quarterback Ashton Daniels completed 60 percent of his passes during the matchup, which included a 40-yard gain to Micahi Danzy and a late-game completion to Jayvan Boggs. Norvell emphasized that while the team demonstrated potential, they must refine their execution before the upcoming conference opener against the SMU Mustangs. The Seminoles are preparing for a Monday night home game at Doak Campbell Stadium to begin their ACC schedule. Coaching staff are focusing on defensive alignment and quarterback rhythm in practice to address issues identified during the week zero performance.
