TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida State coach Jim Fisher says the Seminoles have plenty of talent to win a championship.
Fisher told a crowd of some 1,400 boosters Friday that he wouldn’t trade his talent with anyone else and that sixth-ranked Florida State is ready to make a championship run if they stay focused and play up to their ability.
The second-year head coach has eight starters back on both offense and defense from a team that finished 10-4 last season. The Seminoles also return nearly all of a special teams unit that was among the nation’s best last year.
With top-ranked Oklahoma scheduled to visit Sept. 17, Fisher assured fans that his players and coaches weren’t looking past the Sept. 3 opener against Louisiana-Monroe and a Sept. 10 visit by Charleston Southern.
