So you're going to be the one guy that thinks you had a good OL?
you've lived around bama fans as long as I have, there's always gonna be at least one..

Ina all honesty, our o line the yr we won the title, our o line was just as bad. Jameis jus got rid of the ball quicker. In the national title game Auburn was the first team to be able to cover our receivers for 2 seconds so tjey had a ton of pressure on him. In 14 when we went undefeated our o line was actually worse than last yr but again, we had jameis. I thought the game jameis played against ND that yr, was the best passing game from a college qb i had ever seen with pressure on him. Look up the highlights. He was getring blasted every play and still anticipating throws and dominating. If jameis was not on our 14 team, we lose 5 games easy that yr
Well it won't be UF we know that.
Oozie, I think the weapons are on defense although Frenchy could be really good imo.
True. I remember saying something similar at the time. I just don't know if y'all will have the same caliber weapons this year. I like Francois, Tate, and Murray, wasn't too impressed with anybody else.

Our running back Jacques Patrick is pretty good. We also have 2 other running backs who were 5 stars but they r freshaman and u nvr know with them. Our o line is meh, our TE is meh. Our receivers are ok, im not overly impressed with them. George Campbell who was a 5 star 3 yrs ago is about 6'4 and can really run but the second he starts playing well he gets hurt, so i dont know. I dont think we can rely soley on our offense to carry a game. They are competent and can score but i wouldnt rely on them to outscore anybody. If our defense has an awful day, we lose. Our special teams is shaky at best.
Y'all could run Francois more too, but doesn't seem like Jimbo wants to do that. But a few options, QB draws, etc. would slow the pass rush way down and not just have them racing to the QB.
I don't like Patrick at all, no great back can be as slow as he is. My bet is he gets passed up by more talented guys eventually. I think your WR core has a lot of potential, Murray and Tate can ball and Gavin has a lot of potential too. If your oline steps up and protects Francois can pass you to some victories, but whether they'll protect or not is the big question mark.
I don't understand why FSU can't get an oline...it's literally like putting shopping cart tires on a Ferrari. smhUnless FSU's oline is much much better I'm not seeing the top 5 ranking with them. There were times last year I actually felt bad for Francois watching them play. And it'll be interesting to see how they replace Cook too because he was almost like a cheat code. Similar to us when we had Harvin any time we needed a play he'd come through and make bad plays calls look like genius play calls just by being a star.
One word: TrickettI don't understand why FSU can't get an oline...it's literally like putting shopping car tires on a Ferrari. smh
It is indeed. I wanted to give you a reason to troll. Plus, perhaps you guys will confine doing so to this thread.Well, it is an FSU thread...and started by, you know who
I don't understand why FSU can't get an oline...it's literally like putting shopping car tires on a Ferrari. smh
Trickett= your Nussmeir. He puts together an average oline like every 5 years. Have no idea why Jimbo keeps him around.

Rumor has it Frenchy will be allowed to run more this year. They can't play scared.
I am fearful of him getting hurt too but you don't coach or play the game with fear of injuries. DF held on to the ball too long in a lot of situations last year. With him on the move it hopefully takes added pressure off the OL. He doesn't need to be a meathead like Kendra and try to run through walls. Pick up your 4-5 yards and lay down. Much better than getting pancaked by your preferred prison inmate.
One word: Trickett
I'm not sure how much of that is Trickett and how much of it is Jimbo. Jimbo is as hands-on as it gets in modern times, especially for anything offense-related. I was under the impression that these days Trickett is mostly recruiting and running practice drills that Jimbo had a hand in designing.
Really?
Wow...should probably get a new OL coach.
Maybe one that coaches OL.

sadgator would not be surprised at all if FSU beats Bama in ATL. They historically play very well in big OOC games. sadgator honestly gives them mad props for having the balls to schedule this game. sadgator couldn't give a rat's nut about their ACC schedule, but is very glad they have to come to Gainesville at the end...anybody penciling that game in as an auto W either way is nuts.
He's afraid that Trickett will yell at him.Trickett= your Nussmeir. He puts together an average oline like every 5 years. Have no idea why Jimbo keeps him around.
I was going to write the same thing. If Tricket is primarily out recruiting, one guesses he is primarily recruiting OL men? And given the product on the field, failing?Really?

He can, somewhat justifiably, argue that whatever he's doing works.
As long as one's definition of "whatever he's doing works" includes 2-4 loses every.single.year. Unless another Jameis walks through the door.
Yes, yes it could. As I well know. As well as you.It could be worse, as you know.
