These are probably the two most important games on the 2023 schedule for FSU football. Don’t get me wrong, the rivalry games against Florida and Miami are big for bragging rights and recruiting mostly this season, as I expect the Noles to run over both teams.
Matchup
Importance Factor:
This game is important because it is the first game of the season, there is no warmup game like last season, and it is against a potential top five LSU team. A win here sets the tone for the season and shows the nation the Noles are for real.
