Wow, there is a program in worse shape than ours?

"2. Florida: When even a true Gator like Emmitt Smith calls for the starting quarterback to be benched on Twitter, you don't have to read a thermometer to know the temperature in the room. Sure, nobody expected Florida to beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa, but it's starting to look like the problem wasn't as much the offensive coordinator last season as it was the personnel. Jeff Driskel, bless his heart, just isn't an elite quarterback or even a very good one. And there clearly aren't enough high-level players at running back, receiver or offensive line to prop him up. It wasn't supposed to happen this way. Driskel was the No. 1 quarterback recruit in the country, and he showed flashes as a sophomore, but even then he was more moxie than talent. Now, it looks like Will Muschamp's commitment to Driskel, who was 9-for-28 passing against Alabama, could very well cost him his job. Why hasn't Florida recruited someone better? And why does Jacoby Brissett, who transferred from Florida after the 2012 season, suddenly look like a functional quarterback for N.C. State? The Gators' season isn't over, but if they're this far away from contending for an SEC title — and getting out-gained 645-200 yards indicates they're pretty far away — this is going to be an ugly, ugly few months around Gainesville."

We better hurry up and get a good coach before Michigan beats us to it.

I have a feeling Pease was grinning a little after seeing the recent results. It seems pretty obvious what the two main problems are with the offense.

I don't know why Mich is more miserable than we are. They get to play in the Big 10.

But they have to go to school/live in Michigan. Poor sods.

UM is in far worse shape than UF. Fortunately for them however is they have an outstanding alum if they can get him to return, especially if things continue as they are in SFO. UF doesn't have such an easy choice.

It's hilarious the writer mentions Jacoby Brissett's performance thus far. NCSU has played Georgia Southern, Old Dominion, USF, and Presbyterian. And no, that is not a misprint. Let's see what he does against FSU this week. I sure as hell know he would not have put up any kind of good numbers at Bama.

Its amazing isn't it. Our sucking had nothing to do with the OCs. Different OCs same results.

I have watched a couple of them for some plays - he actually has developed some nice touch on his passes and is pretty accurate even when receivers have a defender on them pretty close since after the 1st half of the first game. NC State doesn't have much talent but he should get them in a bowl game

Did I see GSU there? Didn't we play GSU?

We had the towel boy playing QB against Georgia Southern, not Driskel.

When 4 of your 6 required wins go through Georgia Southern, USF, Presbyterian, and ODU, leaving you only 2 wins needed in the ACC, it doesn't take much to get to a bowl game.

Would it have made a difference?

He's right. I'd rather suck and be Florida than suck and be Michigan.

No one retires to Michigan... for a reason.

Four of our six go through Eastern MIchigan, Kintucky, Eastern Kintucky, and Vandy. Of course, Chimp lost to two cupcakes last year so I guess nothing is a given anymore.

Trickett put up great numbers vs. Bammer.

Dude nobody is arguing about the ACC. But after last year, we are not allowed to complain about anyone playing GSU.

I thought the pump ran dry, but apparently not.

Pease was still garbage.
