Norvell’s Future Hangs on Alabama | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Florida State’s football program teeters on the edge as they jettisoned AD Michael Alford mid-season — a move that casts doubt on head coach Mike Norvell’s future, especially since Alford helped secure his contract. With Alabama looming, a loss could trigger deeper scrutiny: not just the score, but how the team looks — unprepared or simply outmatched. Norvell, in his seventh year, is under pressure to build a consistent contender, with a 39-35 record and a brutal 17-0 road record. An upset win over Alabama would spark hope, ending a nine-game road skid and reshaping perceptions — though past failures won’t vanish overnight. A blowout loss, however, risks eroding fan patience, making it harder for the school to justify keeping Norvell around.
