Gameday Central: Florida State vs. North Alabama previews, predictions, how to watch

Can Florida State close out home schedule undefeated for first time since 2015?

Peyton Baker/Tomahawk Nation

The Florida State Seminoles are closing out their 2023 home schedule by hosting the North Alabama Lions (3-7, 1-5 UAC) tonight at Doak Campbell Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. and the game will be televised on the CW Network.

The Seminoles, who remain in fourth place in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, have already finished their ACC season undefeated and clinched a spot in the 2023 ACC Football Championship for the sixth time, and the first since 2014.

The seniors, as well as draft-eligible players unlikely to return to FSU, will be ceremonially honored in Doak Campbell Stadium before the game. FSU will also honor the 2013 National Championship team, and retire Jameis Winston’s jersey.

Winston will become the 11th FSU football player to be honored with the retirement of his number/jersey. He will join Seminole greats Fred Biletnikoff, Ron Sellers, Ron Simmons, Deion Sanders, Charlie Ward, Warrick Dunn, Chris Weinke, Derrick Brooks, Terrell Buckley and Marvin Jones.
