Florida State’s linebackers are awful in coverage. I explain why opposing teams will utilize the Pittsburgh game plan to beat FSU unless Tony White makes major adjustments.

I also tell the truth about Florida State’s impending Transfer Portal situation. Get out the checkbook, or else.

When will Florida State fire Mike Norvell? After another loss where FSU was outcoached, the question is discussed throughout today’s reaction show.

Some of Florida State’s assistants should not be given a pass either, nor should all the players. Sure, some players like Micahi Danzy played great, but this is FSU. Something must change and it begins with Norvell.

Mike Norvell should not be trusted to ever lead Florida State to the College Football Playoff. He’s proven untrustworthy more often than not, as I explain on today’s Locked On Seminoles.

Florida State picked to lose to Pittsburgh by one outlet, and I explain why that’s actually realistic. Like it or not, FSU is in a dangerous spot.

I also discuss five players who must step up or that upset can absolutely happen. Finally, it’s mailbag time!

My biggest Florida State concern is with injuries. Too many Seminoles are hurt, whether reported by the FSU staff or not. It’s obvious and I explain during today’s show.

PFF grades show some good news, but the offensive line’s grades were bad, really bad. 

As for the defense, the Seminoles have question marks that were strengths. Why?

Florida State didn’t deserve to beat Miami. I go into detail on this reaction show, but the three obvious problems were self-inflicted wounds, including turnovers, horrible tackling, and mental errors.

Will Florida State recover or are the Seminoles headed for a downward spiral?

Florida State will earn trust back by beating Miami. There’s no shortcut. The Seminoles lost to an inferior Virginia squad because of self-inflicted wounds. I break down how FSU gets back on track, or, loses its second game in a row.

Will Florida State earn the victory against Miami? It’s time to define what needs to happen for an FSU win.

Florida State versus Miami brings about interesting national statistics; some of them are misleading. Miami’s pass rush is better than Florida State’s despite both teams having the same number of sacks. There are more situations that I define that will help determine the winner of this annual rivalry between the Seminoles and Hurricanes.

Florida State’s 2026 recruiting class continues to trend upward, with legacy recruit Corbyn Fordham being picked to flip to the Seminoles. I explain why Fordham is a tremendous fit for Gus Malzahn’s offense, and why he’s not the only flip I expect to happen.

I expect at least one current Florida commitment to end up signing with the Seminoles, and there are several top recruits coming to Tallahassee for the FSU versus Miami game.

Florida State’s injury list includes multiple players who would really be hard to replace – especially in key situations – against Miami. Today’s show begins with my takes on what Florida State’s options are if the worst case scenarios play out.

There is good news on the recruiting front to discuss, as winning is helping the Noles. Plus, how does FSU fix the pass rushing situation? I dive into that before finishing with a mailbag.

Florida State versus Miami matchups begin with the Seminoles slowing down running back Mark Fletcher, Jr. He’s a talented runner, but I define a few ways FSU’s Tony White can make adjustments and help the Noles win the run-game battle.

Play calling must be on point for FSU. Gus Malzahn is famous for big games, and I give my take on how he will give the Seminoles an edge over Miami.

After Florida State’s loss to Virginia, many fans provided unique comments, and plenty of venting, via the Locked On Seminoles YouTube channel. In fact, several good points, questions, and comments. I discuss those with everyone on today’s show.

Brutal honesty. That’s the key to today’s Locked On Seminoles. Grades for each position, and how the Seminoles proved to be better than expected at some positions, while others struggled to date.
