[690West]

trick or treat?

Hard not to like Florida State mine the points. We got shelled in Florida before and that was coming off a bye week.

 

[Chris02M]

id be hard pressed to put any team -21 vs florida state the way they have played this year 14-17 pts seems fair

 

[TexanMark]

I agree with Chris...I think it is a 14 pt game.

 

[Shark58]

after last week's bad beat, they gonna be pissed

 

[Libero2]

after last week's bad beat, they gonna be pissed

I can't even imagine how long that takes to wash off

 

[elimunelson]

They aren't a top 10 team and I bet will b deflated losing. Total front runner program that unless they are in the playoff discussion will be disinterested.

They can still beat us disinterested but will be closer

Agreed. I don't think we're going to win, but I also think that Florida State is really overrated, and I've thought that since before they lost to Georgia Tech. Outside of Cook, they just haven't impressed me all that much.

We will be up or down 1 score in the 4th quarter - again. One of these times we will win.

 

[Rocco]

Those idiots have failed at life. Wow.

 

[690West]

Moneyline is out at +700 implying Cuse has a 13% chance to win outright.

 

[690West]

Moneyline now around +800 or an 11% chance of winning outright.

 

[CusefanATL]

Moneyline now around +800 or an 11% chance of winning outright.

wow! its going up with the RB ruled out? That is insane!

I'm not saying cuse wins this - but FSU hasnt looked very good with Cook. and that is with the QB not turning the ball over once until last week!

Take Cook out and I'm sure Golston run of good luck is coming to an end so lets give him 2 to's - we have a shot to win. +800 is good value and +21 may as well be a lock.

 

[CusefanATL]

also - mario pender is out so i think they are down to 3rd string rb.

The #2 back i'm sure is no slouch.

An interesting dichotomy is occurring with the spread moving lower to -19/19.5 at a lot of books but the moneyline moving higher. So, basically more people believe we're going to cover but less think we'll win outright?

That I can see... because history has shown we are struggling to win the games. But this line being over 14.5 is crazy.

Do we not beat LSU without LF? they are considerably better than FSU.

 

[Orangello]

Things are going to go from bad to worse on this board after tomorrow's tilt. I do not like our chances even +21. Jimbo will be looking to make a statement after last week's fluke loss to GT.

 

[Millhouse]

i don't want to rag on a guy who almost got killed in tallahassee 2 years ago but i used to think that FSU losing Cook would indirectly hurt SU because FSU would throw more against our secondary.

i still think i want FSU to run all day but i'm less convinced now - more uncertainty with our changes

SU is a much different team at home than they are on the road. Let's face it, these young kids have not played in an environment like they will tomorrow. USF and UVA are nothing like FSU. And we didn't exactly impress in the first two road games. However, I do believe we are getting better with experience each game. When will we finally put it all together for a full 60 minutes? Who knows.

People said the same thing about Clemson last year... I know youth. But I think they got that out of their system at USF > UVa. We'll see.

Noon game, dead environment. Their fans will be bored. But I do agree, SU is a lot better at home.

Here's what I'm hoping is the trend that will continue. We were lousy against USF. We were better against UVA. We were better still against Pitt. We're definitely trending in the right direction. Just have to see if that trend continues.

Unfortunately we could continue in that upward direction and be even better than we were against Pitt, and still come out with a 2+ TD loss.
