I'll be rooting against Alabama. This era has been too dominant and needs a dent. Needs to return toward the pack, losing a critical few points in power rating year after year. They were two touchdowns up on a very talented Clemson team in the fourth quarter. Hold that lead and there's already talk of greatest modern stretch over 6-8 years, and it couldn't be seriously disputed. At this point Alabama's legacy against the Canes run is at stake, while Florida State figures to be only moderately strong and their 2017 season likely will drift into semi-irrelevancy.

I despise the Gators and root against them in everything. Right now I wouldn't mind Christian Taylor and Will Claye snapping an ankle on either the hop, skip or jump. With Florida State I root for them occasionally. I certainly preferred them over Auburn in the title game. The only period I've hated them nearby the Gators was late '80s through early '90s. They had the talent base to nab several titles and threaten where the Canes were.

I'll also root against Mike Leach but mostly I'll cherish that he'll provide several reasons to laugh at him throughout 2017.

fvck that. if anyone takes out bama, it should be us.

id rather bama win out because i want a shot at them in the playoffs. you're afraid of bama taking a run at our legacy, and you want FSU to be the team that stops it?

this is the type of thought process one reverts to when they cheer for FSU. its pathetic.

guys crying for our biggest rival to stop the big, bad bama dynasty.

sad

Not saying I'm a better Canes fan than the 50 percent of folks in this poll who want Free Shoes to beat Alabama ...

But I'm **** sure a different one.

Truly stunning there are UM fans who actually root for Turds or Holes.

To each his own, I guess.
 
If FSU loses, that means we're more likely to be within striking distance when we play than vice versa.

Rooting for them is pointless, it just makes you an FSU fan.

So roll tide! I hope they embarrass them on national TV.

Bethune Cookman is the correct answer. Who gives a rat's *** about these schools? Let's worry about winning our games before we start wasting our time cheering for other school's that don't have a U on their helmets.
 
I don't know what makes me scratch my head more.
People who root for F$U to beat Alabama or people who actually think F$U will beat Alabama.
 
It hasn't all been great times for Bama lately.

You can't have a more crushing defeat than 2016 against Clemson.

In 2014 they lost a close one to OSU in the playoffs.

2013 their title hopes were dashed by a 110 yard missed FG return as time expired against their arch rivals.

Anyone rooting for FSU because of a perception that Bama needs to be knocked off their perch is an a-hole.
 
Have any of you actually seen Miami's soft *** schedule? Ya'll need to beat FSU, so you can keep the "We Back!" conversation alive, and get some respect. It won't even matter, because ya'll be pounding your chest about how great Da U is without even really considering the level of your competition. Go ahead on doe with the narrative...

Clearly a product of inbreeding and Tallahassee education.
 
Not like it really matters, but bama is obviously the correct choice. You all know the argument about wanting the teams we play to win their other games, and it makes sense. As for rooting for fsu, re-read the question. "Who do you want to lose?" Rest easy, nobody's rooting for fsu, we're rooting against bama. And what kind of ***** can't get behind that?
Exactly

we can control on of Fsu 's losses. We can't control Bamas.
 
I know I "should" want FSU to be no. 1 when we play them; but, my heart just can't pull for them to win.
