The team, which was 13-1 in 2023, are 5-14 over the last two seasons. They are 1-11 in ACC matchups during that span.\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We rightfully have high expectations in everything we do to represent Florida State in the manner that built our reputation as one of college football&#8217;s best programs, cultivating an extraordinary group of supporters nationally and globally,&#8221; Alford said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We embrace those expectations while also sharing the deep disappointment when results on the field are short of that standard.\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As we continue to move forward this season, our comprehensive assessment of the football program will be completed at season&#8217;s end. Meanwhile, we are fully committed to helping coach Norvell and the 2025 Seminoles strongly rebound in the coming weeks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Norvell&#8217;s 2025 Seminoles rank No. 10 out of 136 NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) teams in points per game. They rank 52nd in points allowed.\n<\/p>\n<p>The Seminoles signed Norvell to a new, eight-year contract, which paid him more than $8 million annually, in 2023. They have since restructured that deal. If the Seminoles split with Norvell, they would owe him a buyout of about $54 million.<\/p>\n<p>Norvell and the Seminoles will try to snap a four-game losing streak when they host Wake Forest (4-2) at 7:30 p.m. EDT Nov. 1 in Tallahassee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oct. 20 (UPI) &#8212; Florida State will assess its football program, including coach Mike Norvell&#8217;s future, after the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12657,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[143,28,30,29,110],"class_list":{"0":"post-12656","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-florida","8":"tag-college-football","9":"tag-florida","10":"tag-florida-headlines","11":"tag-florida-news","12":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12656"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12656\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
