But, we all know we need much improved QB play and wide outs to have any shot. Just because I think it is winnable, doesn't mean we will win. it just means we have a shot at it. No one thought we could come close to Nebraska either. But, we caught them off guard and with a bad QB situation. So, anything is possible I think. With the assumption we play a solid game with no mistakes or terrible coaching calls. We almost beat Ohio state too. Anything is possible.

Although we lost by a lot in the Orange bowl, we were in the game until the last 10 minutes. That interception that Lynch threw killed our momentum and the rest of the game followed that line.

FSU gets their QB back from injury.

I also think it was a questionable fumble call against us in that game and that was a killer.

Well that quarterback had a bad knee injury so he could have quite a bit of rust early in the year. Hey we could only hope we catch em at their worst.
