    I haven't seen a dominant running game like that since those old Nebraska teams.

    I'm surprised hardly anyone is giving the Noles a chance tomorrow. I like them Baylor and Bama tomorrow. Georgia Tech is the real deal hopefully they can hang on.

    Sad day for Mississippi and SEC right now. I'm so happy now because I get to throw this in the face of that Mississippi St. co-worker that keeps talking SEC crap. :) The game's not over yet, though, so I guess I shouldn't celebrate too early ...

    The thing that frustrates me about FSU is that they had to come from behind so many times and didn't look as dominant as their record indicates, it pisses me off when they're ranked in the top 4 but TCU or Baylor aren't. I want them to lose more than I think they'll lose. I actually want them to be embarrassed. lol.

    lol. I just think they'll find a way to win tomorrow just like they have all season. I could be totally wrong too though.

    I think FSU rightfully deserved to be in the top 4. Only undefeated team. I think that argument would've been better made for OSU in the cupcake Big 10. Hopefully Baylor rolls, and proves that the committee was wrong big time. Add in a convincing Bama win and we're that much closer to a top 8 playoff instead.

    I see a high scoring, close FSU-Oregon game with FSU pulling it out. Jameis just wins + too much physicality/size in the trenches. But who really knows?

    what people dont realize is that during the season fsu played 6 teams coming off a bye and they are getting every teams best shot.. couple that with all the freshman and you have slow starts,... winston is an incredible talent...

    No kidding. I never quite understood why so many were quick to dismiss them during ACC play. I saw them early on in the season and had a feeling that they were going to be pretty good.

    I do think they have a chance to be pretty good again next year as well, what with quarterback Justin Thomas coming back.

    Yep and this is the first time in a LONG time they are underdogs going into a game. The players feel like they haven't got the credit they deserved with their ranking throughout the year and I expect them to play with a chip on their shoulder. However, if they get down big early, Oregon HAS to keep the foot on the pedal, unlike all the other teams FSU has played. They can't go conservative like we saw with the other teams who went up early on FSU or you just know Jameis is gonna lead a comeback.

    Tomorrow should be a great slate of games. 3 Big 10 - SEC games, with each conference looking to make a statement/dispel any notions about their conference.
