analysis: Florida State offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Alex Atkins has transformed the offensive line position group into something special. The Seminoles were unable to run the football consistently effectively last season.
However, they want to build their offense around running the football. They have a group of experienced offensive players. The unit is led by do-it-all Darius Washington, who has played every position. The coaching staff has allowed him to do something he is comfortable with as left tackle.
The offensive line has several players who have played multiple college games. Atkins will have a group of experienced players that will help the offense move the ball. I know some people are skeptical about Jeremiah Byers’ inconsistent play at right tackle, but I believe he will have a comeback season in 2024.
