The Florida State Seminoles' spring practices are underway. Their spring game on Saturday afternoon at Doak Campbell Stadium will air on the ACC Network at 4 p.m. ET.
However, due to construction ongoing at Doak Campbell Stadium, the facility is operating at limited capacity, so tickets are limited.
FSU enters the season with a chip on its shoulder after failing to make the College Football Playoff in 2023 despite going undefeated.
In spring practices, coach Mike Norvell has been pleased with what he has seen from the Seminoles roster.
"I love the competitive stuff the guys told them after practice here as a head coach, this is my ninth year just to get a pretty good sense of a team," Norvell said, via Tallahassee Democrat.
"And how the practice before the spring showcase or game in previous years, and what that would, what their approach to was seeing that mentality and just we had some passion, aggression throughout the day and it's something that we got to hone in on just keeping our mindset correct throughout the challenges. But I love the way the guys competed."
Players to watch at FSU Spring Game
The Seminoles are returning 82 players from their 2023 ACC championship team, which went 13-0 before losing to Georgia in the Orange Bowl. But the biggest change is at quarterback, as Jordan Travis will be in the 2024 NFL draft.
DJ Uiagalelei, QB
DJ Uiagalelei transferred to Florida State after one season at Oregon State, after he played three years at Clemson.
Uiagalelei is the projected starting quarterback for the Seminoles, but there is competition, so fans will be eager to see how he looks in the spring game.
Marvin Jones Jr., EDGE
Marvin Jones Jr. transferred from Georgia to FSU and is projected to be one of the top pass rushers for the Seminoles.
He is the son of Marvin Jones, who also played college football at FSU.
Last season at Georgia, Jones recorded 12 tackles, one sack and one forced fumble.
Malik Benson, WR
FSU is losing Keon Coleman and Johnny Wilson to the NFL, leaving Malik Benson to step into a bigger role.
Benson will need to find chemistry with Uiagalelei right away, as the two can be a big part of the Seminoles' offense.
