Florida State has already given up 13 sacks. 114th in sack yards allowed. and a lot of teams have played 1 more game.

We're 18th in sacks per game. 11th in forced fumbles per game

Except for Notre Dame, games with a lot of turnovers give any big underdog a puncher's chance. Maybe they drill winston, get some defensive scores, he loses his mind, gets sent to the locker room, tries to steal all the gatorade, starts a melee, injures his backup QB

Its my understanding that Macguire is hurt and not available on Saturday anyway. Winston is one Publix crap leg away from totally tanking their season.
 
Florida state is 99th against P5 schools in fumbles lost. we're 22nd in p5 fumbles forced

Lots of randomness there, we're talking about 3 fumbles in 4 games. But you gotta cling to something

by the end of the day we can all convince ourselves

In this scenario, when their WR turned backup QB enters the game and they attempt to run it down our throats - do we have enough man power to stop the run?

stop ruining everything
 
Are sacks really that important? Is a loss of 2 yards worse if a quarterback has the ball rather than a running back?

Sometimes a sack is better than the alternative - an errant pass into a defender's hands. Jimbo might be telling his QB to take the sack if there's any doubt (would you trust Winston's decision making?).

Besides, they've been sleep walking for 75% of their games and haven't played any real powerhouses yet. Hard to gauge this team.
 
Any one dimensional team is going to struggle so that wouldn't be 100% bad if Winston gets gripped by crab madness on game day.

i think FSU probably wins

also , i doubt that winston starts a brawl on their sideline by trying to steal all the gatorade
