The start of the new College Football season for the Florida State Seminoles has certainly been underwhelming. After an undefeated championship season last year, the team’s 0-2 start this year has disappointed many fans. Even former player and current Miami Dolphins star has expressed strong dissatisfaction with the season’s beginning.

Following their ACC Championship title last season and a preseason ranking of No. 10, Mike Norvell’s squad began this season poorly, leading to significant backlash from fans who had high expectations.

The 28-13 defeat to Boston College further frustrated Florida State fans, who had hoped for a more promising season. Among those who commented on the situation was Jaylen Ramsey, former Florida State cornerback and current star with the Dolphins.

Ramsey, who won the Super Bowl with the Rams in 2021, is one of the most prominent faces associated with Florida State today. Naturally, with his former university struggling this season, he has voiced his frustration through social media.

Florida State and a rough start to the season

After a relentless performance last season, expectations were high for Florida State to start the new season on a similar note. However, the current reality has fallen short, and there is a strong hope for an immediate turnaround.

The season debut for Florida State began with a misstep, as they narrowly lost 24-21 to Georgia Tech. In their most recent game, the defending ACC champions suffered a surprising 28-13 defeat to Boston College, which has raised significant concerns.
