FSU’s depth chart for this week is largely the same as last week, except for a few notable changes on the offensive line.
The aforementioned Murray had his best game of the season last week. Pro Football Focus gave him the 2nd-highest grade of any receiver in the conference, and named him to their Week 5 ACC Team of the Week.
