Noles lose by 60 to UGA, decide not to hang NC banner

[78]

If you're as old as I am, you're finding the irony in this kind of delicious. The Bowden-led FSU of the late '70s and early '80s was almost recklessly fearless in its independent scheduling, arranging dates with teams like Pitt (they were good back then), Nebraska, LSU, Notre Dame and even Ohio State. They met Oklahoma in a few bowl matchups. Gradually, the wins against giants began piling up and the program began getting lots of notice.

By the time Spurrier arrived at UF it was assumed FSU was just biding time for an SEC invite. When Bowden passed, citing the desire to avoid the more difficult conference schedule, it raised more than a few eyebrows. Now here it is three decades later and the FSU he helped raise from the ashes through fearlessness is paying the price for being a big fat ACC wus. Live by it, die from it.

His logic (and Andrea Blow Job’s too, for that matter) is so ridiculously stupid & flawed. He acts like Bama didn’t beat the #1 ranked team yesterday-the 2 time defending NC on a 29 game win streak. He also acts like his best win, against LSU, wasn’t Bama’s probably 3rd best win. Bama played & beat more top 25 teams, had a top 5 strength of schedule compared to 55 for FSU, and Bama’s only loss is to the #3 seeded playoff team. It’s fcvvking dumb all the whining this guy, his administration & their fans are doing.

It's actually glorious. And is the proverbial nail in the coffin for them against dwags. Instead of getting them pumped and excited selling the opportunity to beat the 2 time defending champs and dialing them in, he's all over mainstream and social media whining and crying like the little btch loser he is. You think his team won't spend the next 3 weeks doing the same? You hear smart doing any of that? Has smart even been visible today? No.

That's because he's already in the film room dialing up coverages and blitzes to take out halfassu's next QB and getting his team ready to rip someone in two.

Georgia by 30, minimum.

Listening right now to Dan Mullen slurping FSU’s cawk makes FSU being left out even more enjoyable and reinforces the opinion that this was the correct decision. And this bum Mullen is talking about the most important thing is winning. The nerve of this clown, who never won shyyt.

Hot damn, just learned of poor fsu. SOS and the poop show they put on last night was costly. Several one loss teams more deserving.

And Georgia left out as well. Good news.

Spot on and I could not have said it any better. I said earlier today when the news came out, you live by the Sword, you die by it as well. Half-azz-U has no one to blame but themselves. This decision and it happening to the Nulls has been so gratifying today. What Bowden laid for them as the easy road, bit them in the azz. And if Bowden were still alive he would probably be saying, "well dadgum".

On ESPN+ watching hockey. During commercials, they play this annoying advertising loop.

It says "exclusive articles and tools" just as a picture of Norvell shows up.

I’ve been thinking about this and even though it feels blasphemous to say, we reallly owe a big thank you to Bama.

They’ve single-handedly caused Georgia to win 2, maybe 3, more titles AND knocked FSU out of the playoffs…..we’d be screwed without them

 

[GatorJ]

Lol

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Lol

Force him to watch fsu play

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Thank god the federal govt is on the case. That's just where our tax dollars and govts time need to be spent.

 

[TN G8tr]

Lol

Go right ahead Mr. Scott. Waste more time and let us know when you have changed anything. Until then the Nulls can still suck it.

 

[gatordad3]

Frank just loves everybody lol. Would never know he’s a Gator grad

He clearly expressed his dislike for Urban Meyer but he totally kissed Ron Zook and Muschamp's ass.

 

[G8trwood]

FSU vs Georgia :)

 

[Durty South Swamp]

With fsu being the "higher" seed which will make it that much more embarrassing for them when Georgia sodomizes them on national TV.

They’ve been a huge ally. And other than 2020, they haven’t really had much of an impact on us. I don’t care for houndstooth, but if it’s that or walking around with no pants at all, I’ll take it.

Classic Frangie. Loves losers. Same thing with Mike White

Lol

It would be perfectly fitting for the selection committee to plead the fifth.

 

[Gator By Marriage]

The ACC and the clowns are right that it is unprecedented for an undefeated P5 team to be left out of the playoff, but it was always possible it was going to happen to someone (surprised it didn’t happen sooner); they’re just pissed it was them. And the worst part is it was a lot of bad luck. It was unlucky for them that LSU wasn’t a better team and we weren’t a good one. It was unlucky that Clemson had their worst team in years and the ACC was generally weak across the board. And it was unlucky for them that their QB had a season ending injury in the second to last game of the season. Maybe if their opponents had been better, they would’ve still run the table; maybe not. Maybe if Travis hadn’t been hurt , they would’ve been selected; maybe not. We’ll never know. But that’s football.

Any clown fans who actually believes they could beat any of the four teams who were selected are deluding themselves. If Norvell and his team are smart they never mention it publicly again, but use it as a massive chip placed squarely on their shoulder. Who knows, with the right attitude, preparation, game plan, and a bunch of opt-outs from their opponent, they could possibly pull an upset in Miami. But if what we all expect to happen, happens, their whining now will be even more embarrassing. Personally, I can’t wait.

Y’all can thank Bama but don’t leave Freeze and Auburn off your Christmas card list. The decision to rush only 2’guys on 4th and 30 kept the Noles out of the playoff.
