Florida State ran the table last season until its bowl game. The Seminoles are in danger of going 100% in reverse in 2024.
FSU fell to 0-3 on Saturday, losing to Memphis, 20-12. The Seminoles also paid the Tigers the sum of $1.3 million to play at Doak Campbell Stadium.
Florida State paid Memphis a $1.3 million guarantee to play in Tallahassee today.

Memphis built a 20-3 lead in the third quarter and went on to the victory.
Transfer DJ Uiagalelei continued to struggle as the FSU quarterback. He was 16-of-30 for 201 yards and a pick.
The former Clemson and Oregon State QB was expected to be a difference-maker for the Seminoles. It has not panned out.
The “DJ” in DJ Uiagalelei must stand for Daniel Jones

Whoever convinced Florida State that the transfer portal QB they needed was DJ Uiagalelei and not any number of significantly better options, should never work in football again.
