Man, did we get lucky on the 'no call'.

That is exactly the type of thing that has started the wheels coming off in the past.

All-in-all, I think we were the beneficiary of the stripes today. Surprisingly, against a Carolina school.

Bookmark it now, Gene and I aren't afraid. We'll see what kind of show this is tomorrow...

There's probably two or three million FSU fans in the world, and I'm guessing exactly zero of them had us losing to Jacksonville State and beating UNC in Chapel Hill.

Well, certainly time to re-think what these guys can do. Have to stay healthy, have no room for any losses. Having the bye week now is huge to let these guys come down a bit from this, get a tune-up game against surging UMass, and then see what they can do in Death Valley.

Win next week, play a somewhat complete game against Clemson, and who is to say they can't go 3-1 in November?

Huge step today, great performance. I am glad for the players

wow Ed o could be toast

and we keep recruiting against them .. cant hurt

FSU football has always been about finding a way. The zone read is what we can do. We have really good backs. This was a outstanding game plan by Dillingham and Mike. I still can’t stand bend but don’t break d. Today it got the job done!

This team doesn’t quite and the young guys are improving every week.

no excuse for j state, never will be but it’s worth mentioning how close we are to 5-1.

Get healthy, take our lumps at Clemson and then we’ll see if we can turn this into a season with 3 wins in four games that we’ll be big dogs in.

ARE WE GETTING BETTER - YES - A BLIND MAN COULD SEE IT

PLEASE POST THINGs THAT YOU HAVE SEEN US GETTING BETTER AT SINCE 2020

1. penalties - wow they have decreased
2. discipline - penalties attention to detail work ethic celebrating every play even when we are losing .. the team has reeled itself in
3. never quite attitude - good lord those come backs against ND and Louisville were impressive, we were big group of quitters last year
4 how to line up .. we now know how to line up .. really not even a question at this point
5 strength and conditioning - hell we get stronger in the fourth QTR
6 who to cover what pass pattern to run .. seem like EVERY play last year some DB was in the wrong spot .. almost NEVER had the DB all cover ing the right person
7 Effort - 50:50 balls we never won - EVER .. we are start to win our share

LOVE THE WAY WE ARE HEADED AND WE ARE HEADING THERE QUICKLY

*************************************************
this MAY be the game that puts a stake in and solidifies a top 10 recruiting class

I know we're banged up with not much depth but we brought in a transfer guard. Not great but experienced. DLT has been allowed to slide inside which many said is more natural for him. I know our tackles are young but they hold their own for the most part and Smith is a strength and Baveon has been somewhat of a surprise. Yet we still cant pick up blitzes or handle stunts, 1 on 1 blocking is scary and the pocket collapses regularly. I thought the OL made strides last year and with more seasoned players playing their natural positions I expected we'd be a little better. Thoughts on the lack of progression to this point?

three in a row baby!!!!!

Last year (1st year)- beats #5 UNC
This year- first road win (again as underdogs) against UNC.

Take the victories where you can

Keep climbing!

Obviously not the one that always shafts us.

With a week off and UMass, are we primarily dinged up with several that could return or are most serious injuries? (I know Briggs is out.)

This is the first game this year where, with the exception of the first few minutes, the team I've seen in practice continues to fight and execute!
Let's keep it going!
Go Noles!

I know, some of you are thinking slow down speed racer.

But suddenly some of the “L”s are looking like “W”s.

Norvell has a really good opportunity to salvage this season and upset a rival or two in the process🙏🏻.

Mack Brown is now 0-11 vs our beloved NOLES!!!

I keep saying it when I watch him run. Figured I'd say it on here.

wow will that not set the table for our future game . confidence and such

You beat UNC with a running QB and pass rushing DL ..

DE is and DL has not been the UM strength .. so we hope UM gives Howell time and he lights them up ..
King has been hurt so bad he can not play and when he played he was no jordan travis ... and can not throw .. hopefully he missed the UNC game and they lose big

Thanks for the info.

Is truly a blessing coming off this win because we basically have a bye week and the week of prep against UMASS to just get better and sharpen everything we’ve been doing. It is also a period of time for guys to get healthy. Then the week after the UMASS game is just another week to get better. Clemson doesn’t look as unbeatable as they once did to me. The UMASS game should be a nice tune up game to be able to go out there and execute on both sides of the ball and get better. Almost like a scrimmage.

You get a 🪓

We could win 3 straight!

Wasn't able to watch the game, how bad was it?

Run the ball effectively so they have to respect the play-action. Add to that ZERO sacks, ZERO turnovers, and five or fewer penalties? Most teams with that stat line are winners. We are no different. I think Carolina figured on pushing us around tonight. Major shock to their system, and a big win for the good guys. Bye week to get healthy and see what we can do with the 2nd half of the season!!!
