Florida State will play Big 12 up-and-comer Oklahoma State who will be led by new coach Mike Boynton and the Seminoles will now have the services of five-star shooting guard M.J. Walker at their disposal when that game takes place. Meanwhile, Florida will play  Clemson who was not great last season and may not be as good this season with the loss of Jaron Blossomgame to the NBA Draft. Regardless, those are some Power-5 matchups that should help each school looking to make it to the NCAA Tournament.
