- Andre Otto is projected to win the starting left-guard job. - Xavier Chaplin is viewed as Florida State's only currently game-ready left tackle, making that position a significant depth and availability risk. - The tight-end room remains a concern, while a transfer who was injured throughout last season is expected to be healthier and could overtake older options in his position group.

- Florida State's opponent is expected to lean heavily on the run and quick passing to prevent the Seminoles' pass rush from taking over the opener. - The host projects Florida State to record about three sacks but is unwilling to go higher because the opposing quarterback is expected to release the ball quickly rather than hold it under pressure. - If FSU builds a large lead, the expected run-heavy response should shorten the game and reduce second-half possession volume.
