After a memorable season for the Seminoles, there is still plenty to celebrate in Tallahassee. Florida State Seminoles Florida State and 2023 didn’t make it to the Orange Bowl, but there’s still plenty to celebrate in Tallahassee this year.
The Seminoles finished 13-1 and won their first ACC Championship in nine years, beating Miami and Florida. That success will be seen at the Florida Capitol in the coming days as the new year begins. Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Saturday that the Capitol will be lit up in blue and gold on Jan. 2 to celebrate the achievements of FSU and the number.
DeSantis has been a staunch supporter of the Seminoles since the program’s elimination from the College Football Playoff in early December. He proposed setting aside $1 million for the project and possible legal action.
That could come in handy when Florida State takes the Pacific Conference to court. The governor of Florida is running for president in 2024. He made the announcement before FSU’s loss to the Georgia Bulldogs. The Seminoles had a better record in each of the four seasons Mike Norvell was in charge.

Florida State’s 19-game winning streak is the second-longest in program history. The Seminoles have won 23 of their last 27 games since the start of 2022.
