FSU is in elite company now

Pate on his reaction show for SMU is questioning whether FSU can get to 3 wins for the season at this point,

Also a darkhorse for the ACC I think is SMU. They lost by 3 to BYU. BYU is now ranked 17 and has also beat Southern IL, Wymoning, #20 K State and Baylor.

SMU has Louisville this weekend and that is now shaping up to be a game. IF SMU can pull that out they then have their bye and are:

@ Stanford
@ Duke
Pitt
BC
@UVA and
Cal.

They could run the table, they could lose 3 of those final games but I dont see any for sure losses, likely favored in every game to close out the year depending on what happens at Lousiville.

Also is it because they joined the conference late their schedule is so odd which results in them having 3 bye weeks?

Their season started @ Nevada Week 0 or Aug 24th.

They then had a bye the weekend of Sept 19 (BYU on Sept 6 and TCU on the 21st)

They then have a bye Oct 12th (Lousiville Oct 5 and Stanford Oct 19)

They then have a third bye Nov 9 (Pitt on Nov 2, BC on Nov 16)

I cant recall a team having 3 bye weeks ever?

Our rivals being this bad means they could fire their coach.

That means they could end up hiring someone good.

That could take away recruits from us.

They could then be competitive and compete with us for the ACC championship or a playoff birth.

Think farther and longer than fanatical hate.

Just to be clear, you'd rather have a single win in a scenario where FSU might leapfrog us and get in the playoffs ahead of us despite our victory like in 2000 than enjoy the soul crushing misery that every single FSU coach, player, booster, and fan has to endure every minute of every day because of social media.

I've a got a gluten intolerant Yorkie and some red solo cups if you'd like to stand in for that other guy.

You are applying a degree of strategic thinking here.

Adorable. But they're like little gremlins. There are just 3 rules.

1. External sounds or motion will prompt a vocal response.
2. Never walk between 6 and 10 pm or you'll be doing it again at 2-3 am.
3. Do not feed anything with gluten or - just don't it's not pretty to even describe.
 
I feel like it is partly the ACC’s fault that noles are ****e. We are just not challenging them enough. They are like the gifted 2nd grader that is bored by a curriculum designed for dumber kids.

Well certainly, a lot of you have no idea what it was like being in either stadium, both of us in the Top 5 and winning those games. A NC on the line year after year. It was the biggest rivalery in college football, not the joke it has been for 18 years. It was the UGA/Bama game Sat night and came down to the very end most years just like that game. It was the best game of the year in college football. **** no, I don't want to play a 1 win sorry team. Our schedule is pathetic enough without them being unbelievably bad.

Ours feel perfectly comfortable sleeping on our necks.

MTSU is the Blue Raiders; yes, we would like to forget, but they did Spring Break in Destin back in the late 80s and it was...Memorable

Urban Meyer reaped the benefits when the Big 3 were down. Then with Jameis, Jimbo reaped all the benefits when the Big 3 were down.

Forgive me if I don’t shed a tear for those tap dancing on our graves when Shapiro and our Admins sent us into a death spiral after multiple bad hires!!
