Yeah....was watching the first half on the ESPN app, down in SC for the Southern 500 this weekend. I was kinda upset I was missing the game while I was with the kids on the beach. When I got back to the condo and saw the score/highlights, I was glad I missed it. No cussing and ranting and raving....SMH. What the hell happened to the offense? They were en fuego in the first half! "Better send those refunds..."

Boise did a good job of taking deep throws to Terry out of the game with a constant safety over the top and Briles/Blackman looked completely lost at what to do without that play to go to when in trouble. Also, the running game was completely shutdown in the second half. The defense just got exhausted, lots of cramping after plays, oddly all by FSU. Boise looked to hold up better in the heat than the home team. I wondered, Blackman's stats in 2nd half were like an option team. "Better send those refunds..."

Jeez, I wish Howell would have stayed.... Blackman looks like shit. Thank heavens for Cam Akers, or this team would be unwatchable.

IDK Sunset....this kid is a true freshman, and has led two straight 4th qtr comebacks, UNC is 2-0. They haven't exactly played slouches either, Miami and South Carolina. He was on our campus, he verbally committed to FSU. Then Mack Brown talks him into staying at Chapel Hill. We only beat Louisiana Monroe in OT because they missed an XP. In our house. Stings pretty bad! "Better send those refunds..."

Big test Saturday ol buddy. I'm not expecting a win, but I'd like to keep it within 3 scores. What you thinking?

I’d be happy if it’s still a game at the start of the 4th and not a complete blowout by halftime. My thoughts as well. I'd also add that some of the foolish penalties have been cleaned up, and the team seems to be getting better, conditioning wise. Also, I liked how Briles finally decided to slow it up at times against NCSt. I'm finally seeing some improvements here. Liked how what's his name  got the ball to playmakers in stride. Nice touch on the deep ball to Wilson too.Oh, and just give Cam Akers the damn ball! "Better send those refunds..."

I’ve never liked that approach, “if you have two QB’s, then you don’t actually have one” I don't like that approach either, but then again, he said Blackman would play against the Wolfpack right up until the start of the game. I say roll with Hornibrook. I'm starting to think this team might win 7 games. "Better send those refunds..."

I just saw that FSU showed Taggert the door. I guess y'all will be having plenty to talk about this week.

I imagine it'll be tough sledding when you only gave Willie 1.5 yrs to turn around a program that heading for the toilet when he got here. I'm afraid we're in for tough times unless we could get Stoops or someone at least of that caliber. "Better send those refunds..."

Pretty good chance he’s played his last college game and FSU wasted having his incredible talent for the past three years. Man.... between the Noles and the Bengals, it's been pretty rough on us the last few years hasn't it? I saw a crazy rumor about Deion Sanders being considered for HC, I love Prime, but jeez I hope that's just a rumor. "Better send those refunds..."

(12-09-2019, 02:43 PM)Yojimbo Wrote: So the new coach is hired. Not sure how I feel about Norvell, pretty neutral at this point. I've done a little reading on him. He seems to get his coordinators poached quite frequently, but just goes out and reloads. If I'm not mistaken, the Auburn OC is a former assistant of his. He's got former assistants in coordinator positions at ND, UGA, AU, and another power 5 school. They've had the number 3 special teams, one of the top offenses in the country, and their defense has steadily improved. While not the splash hire most wanted, the hope here is that you've corralled the hottest up and comer and he turns this around. That said, he's going to need more than 1.5 years to get the ship righted. "Better send those refunds..."

Norvell is already piling up recruits. Flipped Tate Rodemaker from USF. They're hoping that Tate can get his 4 star HS WR into the fold, Bell. They currently have another 4 star WR, and a 4 star RB on campus. Both supposed to commit. They also have another 4 star QB in their sights hoping to flip him from Louisville. In the ACC the Noles can be relevant again and very quickly!
