The Florida State Seminoles are moving into their final three games of the regular season. The Seminoles need to win at least two of these contests to have an opportunity to qualify for a bowl game.

That starts with taking care of business against the Virginia Tech Hokies in Tallahassee on Saturday night. The Seminoles blew their chance in Death Valley over the weekend, and now their backs are essentially up against the wall.

Virginia Tech is limping through the 2025 campaign, posting a 3-6 record through nine games. The Hokies fired head coach Brent Pry in September and have lost three of their last four games.

To kick off the week, Florida State released its weekly depth chart.
