The Florida State Seminoles are hoping that 2024 can end in a College Football Playoff appearance. In the past week, they have landed a lot of talent from the transfer portal. After landing former LSU wide receiver Jalen Brown yesterday, the Seminoles got former Alabama wide receiver Malik Benson to commit to the program.

Florida State Lands WR Malik Benson
Due to the abundance of talent in the wide receiver position in 2023, Benson had limited playing time. Despite this, he managed to accumulate 13 receptions, 162 yards, and a touchdown. Eager for a more significant role, Benson, a JUCO transfer from Hutchinson Community College, initially joined Alabama. During his two years at Hutchinson, he showcased his skills with 77 receptions, 2,152 yards, and 21 touchdowns. With the Seminoles’ reputation for effectively nurturing wide receivers, the team boasts a wealth of offensive options.
New Look Offense
The Seminoles did a good job reloading. One of the best quarterbacks in the portal, DJ Uiagalelei of Oregon State, was acquired by them. To ensure that they can maintain their lead in the ACC, they have been adding offensive weapons. Louisville, who presently has one of the best transfer portal classes in the country, may pose their greatest challenge. Nevertheless, the Seminoles will probably start 2024 as the conference’s top pick.
In 2024, Florida State will probably be seeking retribution. Even though it will be simpler to enter the playoffs as they grow, they still want to demonstrate that their programme is among the greatest in college football.
