FSU Football: How Do The Seminoles Perform During Presidential Election Years?

In just over six months, the voters of the United States of America will go to their local polling places and cast their ballots for who they want as the next President. Whoever that lucky man or woman may be, there is one important question that fans of FSU football need to ask: how will this affect the Seminoles this season?

By the time Americans have picked their new leader, the Seminoles will be nine games into the 2016 season and coming off a road game at N.C. State. With elections being held in November, the outcome doesn’t affect how FSU football will do for the entire season, but some fans might use it as an indication of how the season will end up.
