Ya...and we're the joke. Actually, you are. UF is in recovery mode after Muschamp and Dumbo is "reloading" as nulls would put it. LMAO. You are going to be in for a rough patch for about 10 years. Mark it.

He's relied on a steady diet of Muschamp and Golden and a suckass schedule. Four loss Fisher will be thus again, even in the lowly ACC without Winston. Fisher sucked a hogs ass while being the coach in waiting when he was facing competent competition before Meyer checked into the psyche ward. Fisher didn't even scare anyone as LSU's OC while coaching under Saban. Get real. Cycles come and go, and with it, goes Dumbo. Mark it.HIs calling card is also owning the state and stomping on gators regardless of who's coach.

You guys keep telling us how much he sucks. He just keeps stomping mud holes in you. Keeps reeling in top 5 classes. Keeps sending record numbers of picks to the league. Keeps going to big time bowls and winning them.
Did you enjoy seeing the swamp empty out at the start of the 4th for the third consecutive time against FSU?
We are still your daddy, so show a little respect until you change that.
What is your criteria for being ones' "daddy"? National Championships? Head-to-head?
That's all that matters...its a clear indicator of who's the daddy and who's the step child.
Go Canes!
There is nothing about college football, whether nationally or for the 2 Sunshine-State major public-university rivals, that changed or happened in 1980 to justify asserting "1980-Present" as the definition of a Modern Era for the Florida--FSU football game.Head-to-Head Modern Era (1980-Present) = 19-18-1 (FSU)
Wikipedia on Florida–Florida_State_football_rivalry said:Since alternating the game site, the Gators hold a 29–23–1 edge over the Seminoles.[#]
There is nothing about college football, whether nationally or for the 2 Sunshine-State major public-university rivals, that changed or happened in 1980 to justify asserting "1980-Present" as the definition of a Modern Era for the Florida--FSU football game.
So 1980 should be recognized as a number chosen because it has a zero on the end (whoo-hoo!), in hopes of convincing simple-minded readers that that makes it significant. Of course, the goal is to boast of a "19-18-1" "Head-to-Head Modern Era" record that's in favor of FSU.
Considering potentially justifiable chronological dividing lines, none of these changed:
The only significant dividing line in the rivalry occurred in 1964, when FSU put the rivalry on its modern home-&-away basis by hosting the first of its games in Tallahassee. That happened after expanding Doak Campbell Stadium to its initial mutually agreeable capacity 40,500 (1964--1977). That capacity was comparable to (albeit less than) the 46,164 (1960--1965) at Florida Field before the major expansion of the east stands.
- Not NCAA rules;
- not the head coaches;
- not conference membership (independent FSU to ACC in 1992);
- not major stadium expansion, thus not home-field advantage;
- not t.v. contracts (NCAA v. Board of Regents of Univ. Of Okla. [and de facto, Univ. Of Ga.]: lower ct. decision in 1982, U.S. Supreme Ct. decision 83-271 in 1984).
But drawing the line at 1964 would ruin the contrived boast about the "Head-to-Head Modern Era":

Not surprised I had to double check the record books as its actually 31-28, but you really think all that other crap matters...head to head and national championships is all they'll put on your tombstone unless you're a nolie and they add a bunch of other crap such as most rapes in a single year, most years of coming in fourth, almost the longest home win streak, almost won more championships, almost beat UM and UF more times...deal with it.Leave it to Marv to pick the ONLY two criteria where he "thinks" Miami has the edge on FSU.
Yes, Miami has 5 National Titles to FSU's 3; however, the head-to-head is tied 29-29-0 and next year FSU moves ahead 30-29-0. You guys do still hold the edge over UF; though with 5 titles to their 3 AND a 29-26-0 record.

"Paul Attwood"? Why should anyone reading ITG give a d@#n what an olympic bobsledder from across the Pond--in the U.K.--merely "tends to look at" about the best of the sports played in the U.S.A. by the Grace of God?Paul Attwood looks at 1982 as the beginning of the "Modern Era" of College Football:
While there is no one year that you can point to and say that this is the year everything changed for college football and recruiting I tend to look at 1982 as the beginning of the modern era of college football and recruiting.

Ah, my two sources don't count the years FSU wasn't DIV 1.
Just like Urban took advantage of when FSU was down. It goes both ways.Don't care how you look at it, you can throw numbers all over the place. Bottom line is that UF is the better program hands down. FSU isn't far behind, but from a business perspective, we are the better the program and have been for decades. Dumbo has been fortunate to take advantage of some down years at UF, but those days are hopefully over.
non-excuse comments from Gators on various game-day threads:
"I do think UF takes a 7-0 lead with Grier at QB. He doesn't miss that wide open Callaway in the 1st quarter"
"The last two TDs were garbage time. And if Grier was playing, the spread would probably have been in Florida's favor"
"The sad thing is FSU isn't that good. I hate to think how good we could be with a QB to go with this defense."
"These fracking officials. ACC officials."
"Treon Harris = FSU MVP 2 years in a row. Send that dude some flowers"
"We had more yards and more first downs than FSU going into the 4th quarter....if we had a competent QB we win that game"
Not an excuse, but my favorite "in game" comment (from shime)"I hate Fisher you bald loser whose wife left you despite your 5 million salary."
Fisher does suck. Let me put this in simple terms for you. Ron Zook, for all intents and purposes owned FSU (no one will EVER forget the Swindle) so that put him 2-1 against the nulls. Fisher has basked with the sun shining on his dog ass while UF suffered Muschamp and UM's coaching situation for eons. Zook coached in the SEC, not the lowly ACC so he was snuffed out quickly. Fisher doesn't have that same situation. Can we assume Zook was a good coach because he not only owned FSU during the Booby days and was competitive in the SEC? No. That same logic applies to Fisher. Fisher absolutely lucked out getting Winston and catching UF and UM at their most dismal stretches in 30 years.You guys keep telling us how much he sucks. He just keeps stomping mud holes in you. Keeps reeling in top 5 classes. Keeps sending record numbers of picks to the league. Keeps going to big time bowls and winning them.

That hardly puts Fisher in elite status. Minus Winston, he would been lucky to be 4 Loss Fisher.![]()

FSU is down, unranked and barely squeezing out winning seasons, but UF isn't considered to be "taking advantage" of a past his prime Bobby and his TERRIBLE son Jeff.
Fisher turns around and returns the favor vs Meyer, Champ, and Mac and it's taking advantage of a down UF and Fisher sucks.
Here's a tip, UF doesn't define Fisher's tenure. If you want a real stat, look up the two teams when they are not down. Here's a hint...the record is 13-12-1 when neither team is down.
Fisher only had a 4 year running head start.... I would hope he would have figured out how to beat UF after getting his ass spanked 6 in a row.
Correct. He beat Urban during his meltdown farewell tour year, Muscramp 3 out of 4, and a Grier-less UF in first year coach Mac. That is factual. That is pure dominance.While in no possible way do I agree any assistant coach has a won/loss record, how in the world do you come up with JF going 0 for 6? While he was an asst (HCIW) FSU went 0 for 3 in 2007, 08, 09. He became coach in 2010 and is 5 -1 vs UF. JF doesn't have 6 losses vs UF any way you might want to count it.

lolz................. Jimbo scares nobody that plays in the SEC. That goes way back to when he was an assistant to Saban.![]()
My math have been off, but You're exactly right. fisher doesn't scare anybody that remotely plays defense.

Complex to EJ? Be honest, that ain't saying much....and to the point, are you asserting complex equals good?According to his former quarterback EJ Manuel, the Florida State offense was more difficult to learn than the Buffalo Bills' system.
