Well i guess lucky for them the Flu can last up to 2 weeks so they can recycle this excuse.Supposedly half the team had the flu, could just be an excuse but that's the rumor.

Clemsons Dline is 10 times better than BC so Travis better get ready to get hit and hit and hit. LOLYeah, let's root for Clemson.
Anyways, Clemson's can't score with FSU. The only way they win is if they slow the game down, limit possessions, and keep FSU offense off the field.
I think FSU had their bad game against BC. Every good team plays 1-2 of those games per year. Think about 2001 and how we BARELY. beat BC and V-tech. But when UM was really serious it was a wrap. I’m not comparing FSU 2023 to UM 2001, but simply pointing out that if the best team in the history of college football can play some close/bad games, certainly 2023 FSU can as well.
but is fspoo better than Duke that beat down ClemsonTaking Clemson +1.5 most likely. They're still better than Boston College who the Semenholes couldn't figure out.
I normally try not to take too much from one-off games. But FSU is currently 101st in total defense with Southern Miss and BC being two of their games. That's a red flag for me. Clemson is also better than they are being given credit for. Clemson isn't special but they had flukey turnovers to lose to a ranked Duke team.
Yeah after three games you start to see beginnings of patterns and trends. In 2017 we had a fun team, but we played a LOT of close games and somehow got by undefeated until Pitt. Replay that season 10 times and we're probably looking at a couple of losses in there. We all knew we were playing with fire that year and Rosier wouldn't be able to beat Clemson. That's what FSU is doing for the most part right now; getting by DESPITE their defense. Typically someone will eventually exploit your weakness(es). Next three games will show you if that trend will hold or if it's just a couple lazy games.This is what the people who say, "this was their bad game...Miami struggled with BC in 2001...yadda yadda yadda", are missing. Miami didn't have the 104th ranked defense a quarter through the season. Especially after playing two teams in BC and Southern Miss that finished last year 100+ in total offense. Their defense has problems. The question is whether or not Clemson can capitalize.
Don't know yet. Clemson also 100% gave away that game to Duke. Two fumbles inside the 10 (or even 5) and a missed chipped shot FG. Literally left 17 points on the board and then Duke scored late to run it up.but is fspoo better than Duke that beat down Clemson
I dont think any team, not us or Bama has been disrespected more than Clemson. People are handing the ACC title they own to FSU. Its weird af. And when they talk about the game they ignore FSU defense. Just like they did when we were going against A&M and i spoke about how suspect Durkin was.This feels like FSU - UNC 2020 when FSU, ironically, was on the other side of the equation. UNC was undefeated with all the hype, the top 5 ranking and the Heisman candidate. FSU was 1-3 and the butt of every college football joke. I told anyone that would listen that FSU was going to win in Tally, know matter how much the metrics said UNC. I feel the same way about Clemson. People are shoveling dirt on them, but they're not as bad as that first game showed. Clemson has definitely come back to the pack, but they'll beat the Noles. Motivation counts for a lot. Being a home dog is going to have them gassed up. It's their Waterloo.
I agree with this. I do think they’re a good team that would put up a fight against anyone. I look at them now more as a 9-3/10-2 team than as the 11-1/12-0 juggernaut people have been hyping them up to be. Good, but beatable.It’s a good point. I just don’t think FSU is as bad as they played Saturday. I also don’t think they are as good as they were ranked to start the year. But they are a good team.
If some of you idiots root for FSU over Clemson this weekend that should qualify as an automatic ban
Four Teams:Umm, OK, let’s start from the beginning class. There are three teams in college football we UM fans want to lose every week, in everything they do: UF, FSU and ND. Next week we will discuss what to do when they are playing each other.
Miami gets Clemson at home. Plus they have a conf. loss So I want Clemson to win. Give FSU a loss. If Miami can take care of business going into the Clemson game how great would that be??I can’t tell who I’d rather win. On one hand a loss to FSU puts Clemson @ 2 ACC losses and gives up breathing room if we were to fall to them.
On the other hand FSU losing to Clemson would make our Match Up vs Clemson much more impressive were we to win…but it wouldn’t necessarily help increase our odds of Making the Chip
Of course I’m getting ahead of myself lol
100%.
FSU had already played LSU and then hung 60+ on Southern Miss. The BC game was bound to be closer than expected.
Four Teams:
The No Good **** Gatah, Free Shoes, The Domers, and Taint.
You NEVER leave Taint out of your Mount Rushmore of Canes Disdain.
That said, FSU wins this game this weekend, setting up a storied showdown in November (assuming we can take care of our business).
BC will give us fits, similarly. Besides, game is in late Nov.
