The Blue Board

I would give the edge to USC because Bakley is so good. Would be a good match-up though.

This

FSU's only chance would be knocking the blond princess out early..... which is very possible to say the least, but it would need to happen for us to have a realistic chance

And I will keep telling all FSU fans this all offseason as I always do

We can't beat the elite yet, we can beat the shit out of the GayCC and look elite to the untrained eye sure..... but our OL is way too young, inexperienced and frankly.... just way to gay to block any DL with talent

10+ sacks in the spring game and what seemed like a million 1 yard runs was all I needed to see, this OL still effin sucks ass and then drinks the remaining dung..... F*CK YOU TRICKETT!!!!!!

All that said we could keep it close and respectable with USCw and next year we would beat the absolute shit out of them ( Barkley + everybody else leaving = FSU domination in 2013.... after that ?.... well, who cares )

I disagree completely.

If Ponder doesn't go down FSU is scoring 30+ on USCe.

LMAO I just looked it up

Their 2 backup RB's had 22 carries for 123 yards ( two guys I have never heard from since ) so, yeah..... Lattimore would have had 200 all purpose by haltime

We also couldn't score at all in that game due to a piss poor offense that was bitched much of the night aside from Thompson going nuts

5 FG's ? shiiiiit

And why would have Ponder helped that much ? he didn't help against NC St, or OU when they drilled us something fierce

That team was gay as hell T-Noles, thinking otherwise is craziness..... USCe was the better team, things just went our way and we escaped

But again, that is JMO

No doubt, still pure luck though

If he turns a hair second sooner its Reid who was heading to the hospital.... its that simple

He never saw Reid coming and by the time he saw him it was too late

Of course, all Im saying is that FSU sucked ( they did, there is no denying that much for that was the year OU embarrassed us and we lost to a bunch of shit teams afterwards )

Even lost to a team who lost to JMU at home, and VT killed us that year..... killed us

I still have it out for Ponder cause of that game

Busted Bursa Sac ? lmao, that kid was such a fragile little cupcake... god I hate him

People are already comparing Mcguire to him..... pisses me off for Maguire hasn't proven to be a care bear so until then lets compare him to somebody who is actually good and not heading to the trainers room every 4 seconds

Rant over, Ponder blows!!!!

I like Mcguire not sure why. Maybe because he didnt care that we were bringin in Winston, or maybe because hes from Jersey. But I think he could be a starter one day depending on how things shake out

Regardless of what happens, he seems like a kid no one is gonna outwork and he wont fold under pressure. Yeah mobile qbs always get a boost now because of the spread option and success of VY, Cam, Griffin, etc. I think Winston is legit though. We have quite a stable of youngsters behind center. Wasnt that long ago that we were looking at Trickett and that horrible left hander who had no business in D1

Busted bursa? Where? That shouldn't hold someone out.

is this a serious thread? EJ is overrated like to the fullest. I'd say USC by like 21 pts. they are just way better in ever facet. No competition and im sorry FSU fans but saying you have a chance is comical

Having played both last year I'd day USC +14 at least. Who knows how good/bad FSU's offense will be this year, but I don't think it would be close and yes I know we suck.

As of today USC, but that's only because FSU OL is the unknown. If the progress like Jimbo expects then I just don't see that team losing. The defensive talent and depth along the Dline is crazy/ I dont see any OLine holding up against it. Jenkins and Werner gets all of the attention but the man that will put FSU's dline over the top next year is Jernigan. He's an damn near unblockable 3 technique in pass rush situations.

Assuming USC doesn't have injury issues that could expose the depth issues at a couple of positions, I would say USC by 6 at the moment. If FSU's OL is much improved though, this could change. To beat USC this year, it will take a great defense and a solid ball control offense that can limit their possessions. Of the teams actually on USC's schedule, I think Stanford and Washington have the best chance of beating them for those reasons. I don't think Oregon can't stop them and USC's defense will force those 1 or 2 mistakes to take control of the game. Would be great to see LSU or Bama vs USC, IMO, as those are the type of defense and ball control teams that could really give them problems and frustrate the offense by keeping them off the field. FSU could be in that same mold though if the OL comes together and EJ limits mistakes.
