Welcome back to another episode of Locked on Seminoles! Drake and Dave assess Bill Connelly and ESPN’s newest batch of preseason SP+ ratings, and Florida State’s place in the rankings at #11.

Now joining the slew of national media and college football analysts choosing FSU as a playoff contender in 2023 is the advanced metrics, as FSU checks in at #11 in Bill Connelly’s newly-released SP+ ratings. According to Connelly and ESPN, the Seminoles rank as the 26th best offense and the 8th best defense in the country. Drake and Dave break down whether Florida State’s overall ranking is appropriate, why it’s an obvious glitch in the formula that the defense ranks substantially ahead (or ahead at all) of the offense, who above the ‘Noles actually belongs above them, what it would mean for FSU’s season and playoff chances if its defense is actually better than its offense, why Florida’s #20 ranking is so comically wrong, and much more!
