Oregon Football Game Thread: Portland State

Florida State Seminoles head coach Mike Norvell is reportedly facing potential job insecurity due to the team's ongoing losing streak in recent seasons. With a 1-1 record in the 2026-27 season thus far, speculation is growing that Norvell might be replaced. The possibility of former Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher returning to the program has gained traction, according to college football insider Bruce Feldman.

Feldman noted that Fisher, who previously led the Seminoles to a national title in 2013, is eager to return to the position. Fisher, who most recently coached Texas A&M from 2018 to 2024 and now serves as an analyst for the ACC Network, has not been associated with Florida State since the 2017-2018 season. However, it remains uncertain whether Fisher's return to the Seminoles would occur if Norvell were to be let go.

The program would likely conduct a comprehensive search for a new head coach if they decide to part ways with Norvell. Meanwhile, Norvell is focused on guiding his team through an important matchup against the No. 10 Alabama Crimson Tide in Week 3, with the game set to begin at 3:30 p.m. EST.
