Ox, you told me in the chat box a couple weeks ago during the Mizz game we would not beat FSU. I said we would. What's your current opinion?
My current position is that I'm extremely nervous and don't feel good about it AT ALL. FSU just won a game they had no business winning AGAIN because of their usual luck of the devil. They get every effing bounce, they get every break, they get every call. Missing a bowl game would mean missing out on millions for the ACC, so the refs are going to do everything they can in this one - they'll probably bring in the Swindle crew, even pulling some of those guys out of retirement if necessary.

On the flip side, we have Franks. Which one will show up? I don't trust him not to be a hideous turnover machine. I can't wait until we move one from him so maybe I can go into a game without that feeling.

I have a bad feeling, and am praying it's just indigestion.

I’ve only read the last two pages but this is the worst thread in message board history.

Top 5 for sure.

I’m not saying it’s a gimme game, but this doom and gloom, with everything we have in our favor, is ridiculous. Grab your balls and let’s go win this. Zook did it. WM did in 2012 and nearly again as a lame duck in 2014. But I guess that was when we had the calming presence of Jeff Driskel who we knew would keep it cool and lead us to victory.

Seriously, despite any talent disparities, we have a significantly better coaching staff and are entering on way more of a high note than some team than some garbage team that is three plays away from being a 2 win bunch of clowns. Get it together.

F that. They suck. They have zero business beating us this year. None. Is Taggart gonna own Urbans minions? F that. They suck. If I hear any player or coach say this is just another game...we are dead in the water. This game is epic...huge...gargantuan in the state of FL. We better go there and take their souls.

They are statistically one of the worst teams in the country, against a weak schedule, and just beat a backup qb with Addazio crapping the bed in the 4th. Barring a complete meltdown we win easily.

They had zero business beating Louisville and Boston College, and they pulled both games completely out of their asses.

It all comes down to Franks. He can be so bad he could cause us to lose to FCS teams.

I'm going to need to see it before I have the confidence that you do. Bobby Bowden made a deal with the football Gods decades ago, and they still deal out the goods from time to time.

A must win against a 4-6 team. I must be living in an alternative universe.

Actually, I'm just kidding. We do have to win for a variety of reasons, beginning with F-S-U. I hate them more than Georgia.
The choice between UGA and the SOW is like choosing between dog crap and pig shyt.

It'll be a slopfest and we'll win by four.
