TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- It's a bizarre sight when ambling through the coaches wing of the Florida State football complex. The faces behind the desks and the business cards placed atop them haven't changed.
Florida State is one of four Power 5 teams that will have the same coaching staff for a third consecutive season in 2017. Meanwhile, Mississippi State has its fourth defensive coordinator in four seasons. In 2017, every 2016 playoff team will have multiple new coaches.
"[Players] get stability, build relationships. Change this and change that, everybody wants change in this world now," coach Jimbo Fisher said.
