So recruiting rankings don't matter? Of course we had great, underrated players but he was referencing the overall talent of FSU in the ACC. When it comes to OVERALL talent and DEPTH we're not close. Trust me, it pains me to say that but don't be a blind homer.
We're not close but yet we have had leads in the 4th qtr for the last 3 games? And don't look overmatched on the field. Quick sucking up fsu... look they have a clear and distinct talent edge at running back and db but that's it when you compare the two rosters
Can you not read? We are talking about the talent gap. So our starters can hang with them, what about subs? I clearly stated they are not coached/developed to match the rankings but the fact remains they can trot out 4 and 5 stars 3 deep. Don't ever say I'm sucking up to those punks because I hate them with every fiber of my being but facts are facts. Those facts are the reason we lost the last few games, when our guys get tired or hurt, the drop
Just curious, what four or five star backup for FSU help them win the Miami game? We can talk about their backups all day, but none of their backups have help them win any of the Miami games. The only backups who play in big games are the backups on the defensive line. Yes, we may give our backup linebackers one series every half, so our starters can rest, but guys like Perry, Owens and Smith aren't playing a lot of snaps. Miami didn't lose to FSU because of some backups.
They lost because Davin Cook made a play or two, and we missed an extra point.
