Miami/FSU
We got a game here my friends.... 21-14 at the half. And Miami gets the ball to start the 2nd half.

I did kind of wonder if Miami had another gear that they could go to. It appears as if the answer may very well be yes...

They've shown this year that they can pull out a win when they're behind early, but then again Wake Forest/UNC are not FSU.

We'll see. FSU might make some halftime adjustments to put the game away too. Only time will tell.

Either way, the Canes came to play which is good for the league. The Clemson debacle didn't look good. You can't have 37 points separating the 1st and 2nd place teams.

it's good/not good. FSU unless they can open a can of whoop ass here the 2nd half won't get the big poll boost they were needing to get here.

Sure they will. You have to remember they only beat BC by 14 points. They don't need to destroy Miami, just win comfortably. That will also set up a somewhat interesting rematch in the ACCCG.

RE: Miami/FSU
it'll be interesting to see the polls tomorrow. I don't know they convinced anyone today more than they would have been convinced already.

The biggest thing that is positive for FSU is they got by the toughest test left. Alabama and Oregon still have theirs left.

Why do you discount Florida? The game is in Gainesville. It's a rivalry game. Winston is still a RS Freshman. Playing in that environment is still going to be very tough. You don't think the Gators will pull out all the stops to ruin FSU's season? If FSU destroys Florida in Gainesville, the debate should be over.

Florida has 4 losses(3 in a row) and could if they fall next week to Vandy not even make a bowl game. It's hardly a debate ender. At best, they would be 6-6.

UF very well could be sub .500 coming into that game. Their offense is horrid enough that Vandy could give them fits, especially if there is a hangover from today, and they should lose to South Carolina in Columbia. If Florida is sitting on 5 wins and FSU remains unbeaten I can't imagine a situation where The Swamp would come anywhere close to matching the atmosphere Winston faced pretty damn well a few weeks back in Death Valley.

You're kidding, right? Florida already has four losses. That game won't mean squat from a national point of view.

UF has serious issues going forward. Mostly injuries. Seem to wear down as games progress. Miami looked good for 3 quarters but FSU showing They are a legitimate top 4 team. Oregon and Stanford game looming large next week. Could see FSU in NCG.

I could easily see FSU in the title game as well. But, it's going to have to come because Oregon and or Alabama lost a game. I just don't see them having the juice necessary to pass those schools end of the year.

heck, I think if they make the title game they very well quite possibly will win the title game! I think they're that good.

RE: Miami/FSU
UF-FSU is one of the best rivalries in college football. Florida would love nothing more than to ruin FSU's season. That game is a trap game for FSU....on the road...SEC environment...against one of your main rivals.

And did you happen to notice who Florida's 4 losses are against...Missouri, Miami, Georgia, LSU. All teams that have spent time in the top 10 and they still have to play South Carolina. The Georgia and Miami games were close. The LSU game was one possession until midway through the 4th quarter. The Missouri game was 23-17 going into the 4th quarter. You guys act like Florida is just lying down and letting people walk all over them. Their QB situation is terrible and they are still competitive.

Death Valley at its wildest didn't phase Winston and the 'noles. I don't think the Swamp will, either.

I don't doubt that Florida represents a tricky challenge, a trap game, for FSU. Florida still has blue-chip talent, and they would love to ruin FSU's season.

All I am saying is that because Florida will be unranked and with at least 4 losses, FSU will not get any boost in the human polls from beating them. It just will not be viewed by human voters as a significant victory.

I still cannot understand this guys ACC cheerleader syndrome. I told him before even if FSU goes above Oregon today they will just go right back below after Oregon beats Stanford who would demolish Miami.

Furthermore, the rest of the teams FSU plays are very weak Wake Forest, Syracuse, Idaho, and Florida. There is a good chance non of the teams will even be 6-6 this year. On the other hand Oregon plays Stanford (7-1), Utah, Arizona (6-2), Oregon State (6-3), and the Pac-12 Championship against UCLA or Arizona State who are also 6-2 right now.

I am very much aware if Oregon beats Stanford they will jump back over FSU. However, I don't think the gap is as wide as you guys claim. Oregon's schedule is taking a hit week by week. Oregon St just lost at home to USC by 17 points and they still have to play @ ASU and Washington before they even get to Oregon. By that game, Oregon St is looking at 6-5. The teams you listed above for the Pac all still have to play each other. Your South Division champ may roll into the PAC12 CG at 8-4. So quit giving me their current records. It's going to change big time.

As for FSU and Oregon, Oregon had better not struggle in any of their games.

remaining schedules:
FSU 13-21
Ore 23-10

Also, FSU has to pray that Miami beats Va Tech. Otherwise, FSU would be looking at either Va Tech or Duke in the title game.

FSU has no chance unless Oregon loses.
