The Seminoles are back in Doak Campbell Stadium to face off against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Saturday night.<\/p>\n
Wake Forest has won three consecutive games under first-year head coach Jake Dickert. A win over Florida State would make the Demon Deacons bowl eligible.<\/p>\n
To kick off the week, Florida State released its weekly depth chart. With the losses piling up and a week off to re-evaluate, the Seminoles made some changes.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the Seminoles unveiled their two-deep for the matchup against Wake Forest. Let’s dive right into the changes.<\/p>\n
On offense, true freshman wide receiver Teriq Mallory is now a co-backup with redshirt freshman Elijah Moore behind junior Duce Robinson. Redshirt senior Gavin Blackwell is no longer listed on the depth chart.<\/p>\n
In the slot, true freshman Tae’Shaun Gelsey steps in as the primary backup to sophomore Lawayne McCoy. True freshman Jayvan Boggs has been removed from the two-deep.<\/p>\n
At tight end, junior Randy Pittman Jr. holds the starting nod. Redshirt senior Markeston Douglas and sophomore Landen Thomas serve as co-backups. Sophomore Amaree Williams isn’t listed on offense anymore, but he’s still a co-starter at one of the defensive end spots.<\/p>\n
Shifting over to the defense, the Seminoles only made few alterations at linebacker.<\/p>\n
Senior Elijah Herring is a primary starter at one of the linebacker positions. He was previously a co-starter with junior Blake Nichelson. <\/p>\n
Nichelson and junior Justin Cryer are co-starters at another linebacker spot. Cryer is also a co-starter with redshirt junior Omar Graham Jr. at JACK. Redshirt sophomore Caleb LaVallee is no longer on the depth chart.<\/p>\n
There was one change on special teams. Redshirt junior running back Gavin Sawchuk is now a co-starter with redshirt freshman Micahi Danzy at one of the kick return spots. Sawchuk replaces sophomore running back Kam Davis on the two-deep.<\/p>\n
