Rivalry or not. Doesn't matter this time.

[Poptimus]

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict we open as a 13 point favorite over F$U.

We are going to sodomize the Noles, which is just the way they like it.


Yes.

I’ve watched them multiple times this season. Until I see Miami beat an FSU team handily, I won’t believe it’ll happen leading up to the game. Just have seen it too many times against them where they game doesn’t go the way it was thought

You’ve never seen an FSU team this bad coming into the game unless you were watching in the 70’s when we sucked too

This history of this game tells you blowouts win are rare in favor of Miami. I’m not saying it cannot happen but I won’t expect it going in

Last four recruiting classes:

UM 27, 22, 12, 8
FSU 3, 3, 6, 11

Obviously some evaluations were wrong, players didn't stay, or there's some horrendous coaching going on. Probably a combo of it.

That’s because FSU had good coaching for 46 years of these rivalry. Everything is new again. They are trash

I agree. Let's not get ****y. I hate to say it but look at what happened in Dallas!

Just get the win. We haven't done that EVER at our current home stadium against FSU (except for that bowl game victory before it became our home stadium).

Nkosi will be tested. Biggest game of his life (I hope he realizes it and doesn't focus on their 2 losses). For FSWho, this will be their super bowl so we better be ready.

Would love a blowout obviously but as long as we get the 'W' I will be ecstatic.

GO CANES!!!

We are much, much more talented than they are.

It’s not even close, and the NFL Draft will confirm that.

I’m talking about raw recruited talent. It’s empirically undeniable.

So we are NOT more talented, according to the recruiting rankings.

They are just incredibly undercoached and underachieving.

Dawg are you ******* retarded or just dumb? If you are a legit ****** I’m sorry your parents have that burden. If you’re just dumb....well **** you then.

Dawg, you’re the fūcktard with comprehension problems.

Here’s something you’ll understand: I’ll give you a c-note to trim my palm tress

 

[305to954]

I’ll just say this..FSU is not lacking in talent. They have a QB that can make winning plays and is the most talented on our schedule. I expect a dog fight

Recruiting rankings are not empirical data. They are opinions. That team is littered with busts. The NFL Draft will make that clear, in case the W/L record hasn’t made that obvious already.

 

[DMoney]

I do expect a tough game because they are riding high (miracle comeback over a terrible LOU team) and it’s a rivalry.

But we should win because we have better players.

 

[boxtonenyc]

They have talent but one of the biggest fraud corches of all time. Guy has been bad at every stop hes been on the field. His bag game is for real, and thats it.

EVERYWHERE he went they played worse with him as HC.

They are and they aren’t empirical. They are not empirical in the sense that, yes rankings are based on opinions. Although they are opinions that are vetted across several different services.

But they are empirical in the sense that there is a strong statistically proven correlation between higher recruiting rankings and greater success. It’s undeniable.

Does that mean that there are not outliers Of course there are, and obviously FSU is one of the outliers.

There’s obviously something bad going on and it started with Dumbo couple of years ago when they really started underachieving. Call them busts or whatever.

But we can’t deny that they had much higher recruiting classes on their last four classes versus our last four classes. And that is what I’m talking about.

As far as whether we end up having the better talent over this period of time, it will probably be us. We can probably feel fairly confident that going forward we will have higher draft choices than them, I think.

But that doesn’t change the fact that they have outrecruited us the last four years. At least based on star rankings.

 

[pcitycane]

Based on recruiting rankings, individual player ranking, and any other measurement criteria available, they are significantly more talented than us. Based on any available talent data, and it is indisputable

There just is no question that they are significantly more talented than we are. Not just the starters and not just the two deep, but the three deep. Not just two or three classes but all four classes.

With all that, I still think we spank them. Their all star team is not producing and has not been coached very well. Although they will be ready, at least during the first half.

The game plan, coaching, philosophy, vibe of the team...

I do expect a tough game because they are riding high (miracle comeback over a terrible LOU team) and it’s a rivalry.

Much better players, especially on offense even though they have alot of speed on there end.

I expect Richards to be back and James to be 100 percent. When people say oh its a rivalry it could go either way, it's usually the underdog saying that.

Don't think Homer, Dallas, Richards, Gauthier, Mike Smith, Johnson, perry, Jackson's, big 9, patchan, redwine, shaq, pink, and the rest of these goons don't know what this game means?

Don't underestimate the Blowout just as much as you shouldn't underestimate the underdog.
