I don't understand what everybody is so upset about. Very few people expected us to beat FSU this year anyway.
If you can't see the promise from last night then I don't know what to tell you. We had true Freshmen Linebackers out there sticking FSU's older 5-stars. We had true Freshmen Defensive Ends beating FSU's highly rated Offensive Linemen. We had a true Freshman Wide Receiver who was beating FSU's DB's. And this is the first season under a brand new staff with new schemes.
FSU still needed a BS targeting call, a blocked field goal, a phantom holding call and countless mistakes by our QB and WR's to pull the game off by 1 point.
Losses suck, but sometimes a lot can be learned and/or seen in a loss. Some losses contain many positives.
My FSU friends are busting my balls but they all know that this bullsh!t is about to come to an end.
Oddly, your comments are the first ones that have me cooling my jets.
So for that, thanks.
Except it completely ignores FSU started a freshman QB while Kaaya is 3 year starter and projected first round draft pick.
Not to mention FSUs defense was without their best player and is overall a pretty young unit.
We are without our two best players on defense and are a young unit. Seems like the Canes figured it out. Might just be possible that FSUs defense, which was supposed to be a strength of the team, is finally starting to play like they were expected to. This is probably the fifteenth time I have said this but it apparently our "fans" are too dumb to understand: Kaaya has never been a run pass option qb. He is now being asked in his third year to go from pocket passer to an option qb. Name one qb at any level, who has been asked to go from traditional pocket passer to RPO qb and has been successful. Kaaya lit up FSU past two years (with better defenses). All season we've been saying he doesn't look the same. Eventually even the most dense fan might put two and two together and realize that Kaaya has been asked to run the worst offense for his skill set. Richt seems like he has realized this after the FSU game and has said he will go with less RPO and more pro style so we should see Kaaya with much improved performances. I have no doubt the dummies will see the improved numbers at the end of the year and say "Oh, why couldn't he do that against FSU, what a choker." Hard to talk football with people who don't understand the first thing about it.
