Ahead of the matchup, there are few question marks in the lineup due to injuries. Offensive linemen Kayden Lyles and Bless Harris, as well as linebacker Stephen Dix Jr. and running back CJ Campbell are out for the season.
Defensive tackle Fabien Lovett has been out of the lineup since Florida State's win over LSU. He was spotted with a walking boot on his right foot while using the assistance of a cane last weekend. Left tackle Robert Scott missed the win over Boston College after getting injured in the fourth quarter against Louisville.
Earlier Saturday, ESPN reported that defensive end Jared Verse will be a game-time decision for the Seminoles. Verse also went down during the Seminoles' win against the Cardinals.
Outside of that, tight end Jackson West and offensive lineman Thomas Shrader were not available last week. Linebacker Amari Gainer has remained out since suffering a lower-body injury against Duquesne. Wide receivers, Winston Wright Jr. and Ja'Khi Douglas, have yet to be available this season.
