The level of success falls off some in the last 10 years, as FSU is 7th in that time span with a win percentage of .732, which still isn’t too shabby. The success over 30 years is a testament to FSU’s longlast consistency as a program.

FSU football has had plenty of good moments over the last 20 years – now, one analyst is crunching the numbers to show how good the ‘Noles rank.

For the last 20 seasons, we know that FSU football has been one of the best teams in all of college football. Even during the lost half decade from 2005 to 2009, the Seminoles were still a national brand that was a premium attraction and still a household name.Over that span, the Seminoles have won two national titles (and played for two more) while winning the ACC 10 times, winning 12 of their bowl games while playing in a total of 12 postseason games that were either part of the Bowl Alliance, BCS or a College Football Playoff New Year’s Six game.

 

With all those numbers, where does FSU football rank among the elite programs over the span. Well, one college football analyst crunched the numbers and – as it turns out – the Seminoles come out right near the top.Brian Fremeau uses a system called the Massey Consensus on his website to break down teams by how they faced against certain levels of competition. Based on Florida State’s success of the span against both good teams and teams they should beat, the Seminoles came up just shy of being the top overall team:

Even with nearly 25 percent of the years being during the worst era of FSU football since the mid-1970’s, the ‘Noles still end up with the likes of Ohio State, Oklahoma and more that have been at the top of college football over the same span. It goes to show that when Florida State is on their game, there is hardly anyone who can hang with them.It should also be noted that, under Fremeau’s formula for the 2016 season, the Seminoles actually finished ranked higher than in the normal polls – coming in at No. 6 behind the four CFP teams and Oklahoma
