FSU (-21)

FSU overconfident is where we want them. Us with a giant chip on our shoulder is where we want to be.
 
Ya know those defensive adjustments that we seem to make at the half? Well, we need to make them with 13:00 left in the 1Q.

If we wait till the half, the game will be long over.

Even if it costs us a flag, we should lay a good hit on Jameis to welcome him to the rivalry. I'd be willing to give up 15 yards for a little late hit.
 
100% believe we will see coach D do what he does best, keep everything in front of the defense and allow them yards but not big plays or scores. Hold them to field goals and don't let them cross the goal line. It seems every team that blitzes FSU plays right into their hands. Make them work for points and test their patience. The canes have been playing this style and have done a lot of bending but no breaking. Its ugly but canes have not given up many points. Every week coach D says scoring defense is most important stat. Canes will have some success running the ball,they need to run clock and no turnovers is the key. Canes can win this game.
 
Who cares. If they don't come out of that tunnel jacked beyond their minds playing as hard as we did against Florida than we have problems. Big time rivalry when there should be nothing perceived going in cause anything can and has happened

This weekend couldn't have gone better.
1. FSU wins big against NCST.
2. We struggle against Wake.
3. All this FSU this/that/other.
4. Sports networks sucking off FSU.
5. Now the sport lines at over 20?

Holy ****. If we come out and hit someone, they're going to be ****ting bricks. Punch them in the mouth first play (like TheUuuuu mentioned) and keep punching. If we do this, the game will be close going into the 4th and we win. They haven't been tested in the 2nd half, much less the 4th quarter and, well, we know what we are able to do.
 
I just want to throw this out there...

We haven't played a complete game all season, not once. We haven't played our best game yet.

Despite that, despite ALL the mistakes and the poor play, we haven't lost a **** game, either.

That is ******* terrifying for FSU's **** saturday night.

The gators were favored against us too. How'd that work out for UF?

The one bad thing that will happen when we defeat FSU this Saturday is that hundreds of thousands of fair weather fans will come sprinting to jump onto the band wagon.

I wish we could push them away and leave them tumbling in the dust.

The tougher team, both physically and mentally, will win this game.
I know who that team is.

Were going to beat those preening ******ts twice.
 
FSU HAS NOT BEEN TESTED ONCE THIS SEASON WE NEED TO JUMP ON THEM EARLY IF WE WIN THE TOSS WE NEED TO GET THE BALL AND SET THE TONE
 
The money line at 5Dimes is Florida State -1800, Miami +1150. I posted last night that it would be at least -1000, when somebody tried to compare this potential upset to the UCLA game in 1998. Not parallel at all. When a pointspread doubles, the money line does not double. It's more exponential than linear. UCLA was only -330 on the closing money line in 1998.

I thought the spread would be -20 but I'm not shocked at the -22 and -22.5. I worked as sportsbook supervisor at the Horseshoe in the late '80s and early '90s. One thing the sportsbook manager always pays attention to and tries to prevent is waves of money on the same team or same trend. I remember our manager screaming at the oddsmaker, "It doesn't matter what you think...what matters is how they'll bet." He was livid that the oddsmakers were placing high totals on NBA expansion teams Miami and Charlotte, despite tons of under money every time they were on the board. Florida State's spreads have instantly jumped upward in every recent game. In a situation like that the rule generally is to identify the extreme, and then add some more.
