    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    If Mesidor is healthy. This team is a ******* MASH unit. Is there literally anyone good who hasn’t gotten hurt? LT I guess?

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    I was agreeing with you. Plenty of deep shots. They had 0.0 chance for success because they were thrown to Newport News.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    They weren’t even close. It’s REALLY rare when you’re watching the TV broadcast, which only essentially shows 15 or so yards of the field, and the instant the QB releases the football, I say to myself, “Wow that’s overthrown.” I mean, the second he lets the ball go I can tell he’s...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    I think 2010 was one of the most shocking ones I can remember. We had beaten them 8 of the past 11 times, we were ranked #13, it was home, it was Jimbo's first year and we thought they'd be rebuilding, it was Randy's 4th year and the 2008 class were all 3rd year players, FSU had only played 1...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Especially when the 2014 and 2016 games both had the same script. Kaaya as the QB, both games at home, both games at night, both games Miami takes an early lead and loses in heartbreaking fashion. No worries. That game was 8 years ago, if you can believe it. Crazy.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    It was 23-10 at halftime, not 26-3, and the batted ball TD was early in the 3rd quarter to make the game 23-17, not to take the lead. It was also caught and ran in by Karlos Williams, not Dalvin. Dalvin had 2 late TD runs that broke our back.

    Again, slow the run, don’t bust coverages, make him beat you in long yardage down the field.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Agreed. Obviously their staff is watching tape. He's clearly been coached to extend plays to throw, but if they're smart, they'll tell him that he needs to be a little quicker to get vertical and run this week if the first/second read isn't there because you're correct, we're completely lost...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Yeah....FSU has 5 more redzone trips than we do, but they've not been very good scoring TDs either. They are 76th in redzone TD%, we are 117th. Gonna respectfully bow out of this one now.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Good call. I agree. Everything FSU does is either at or behind the LOS, or 40+ yards downfield. Lot of action in the box this week. Gil should be able to contribute.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    I believe Travis has been HEAVILY coached to scramble to throw this year versus his last 2 years. Now, all of what you said is 1000% true, and I'm sure he'll scramble against us with how much we've struggled with it, but it's been very odd to me watching them all year as far as how little he's...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Agreed. I was somewhat surprised too. I just think that when it's broken, it's REALLY broken. But for the most part, it's not huge gain after huge gain. Just the explosive plays have been absolutely massive.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    This is really poor analysis, my man. FSU is 11th in the country in YPP (6.79), we are 88th (5.21) FSU is 48th in the country in Scoring Offense (30.0), we are 101st (21.3) FSU is 25th in the country in passer rating (150.12), we are 85th (125.29) FSU is 16th in the country in rushing yards...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Limiting their explosive plays will be the key, I agree with you 100%. We actually have been somewhat decent on limiting explosive plays, the problem has been on the ones we have allowed, they've been REALLY explosive. For example, we are 25th in the country in 10+ yard scrimmage plays...

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Everything else? Have you checked a single one of their offensive numbers vs theirs? They have a good offense. Well above average. Ours is dreadful.

    Do we have a shot against FSU?

    Without TVD, it's pretty unlikely, but they're favored by 8.5, not 28.5. It's obviously doable. First and foremost, we have to stop the run. Which we're pretty good at, coincidentally. But everything FSU does is set up by their run game. They have 3 pretty good backs, although Ward is still...
