The most overrated college football team in the game?
Florida State opened the 2024 season with a surprising 24-21 loss to Georgia Tech in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday. The Seminoles were heavily favored by double digits at most sportsbooks, making the upset all the more shocking.
Georgia Tech delivered an impressive performance, with standout contributions from quarterback Haynes King and running back Jamal Haynes, leading the Yellow Jackets to victory. Florida State lost the battle up front on both sides of the ball. It was evident watching the game.
The Noles entered the year as a preseason AP Top 10 team despite losing an enormous amount of talent to the NFL Draft.
Boston College is now led by former Penn State and Houston Texans coach Bill O’Brien, who after three seasons as an offensive coordinator at Alabama and in the NFL is returning to his home state for his next head coaching gig.
The Eagles were a bowl team a year ago and have a dynamic quarterback in Thomas Castellanos, and it is showing early. This week, Boston College is already up 14-0.
Even if Florida State comes back and wins this game, they have to be the most overrated football team in College right now. They were ranked and are -16.5 point favorites right now over Boston College and getting their ass handed to them.
