Cab we all agree we cannot use that offensive/defensive gameplan to beat UNC? We need to run more than 5 offensive sets and we have to bring the heat on Howell and not rely on our front four the entire game minus the last 5 minutes.

I could peddle my goods on this board and be salesperson of the year. So many people sad and frustrated by a win after 0-4 start.

The Syracuse game will be the first win of the season. It is a great matchup for FSU in being their only strength (a RB) plays right into out hands. They can't throw to take advantage of our terrible secondary. The JSU game was a very fluke loss, but this is our win. So is U-Mass. 2-12 looks to be our floor from this point forward. Will see if we we can garner any kind of momentum after this win.

We aren't going 0-12. It feels as if we could at this point, but that is just not going to happen. We win this weekend, save this post.

If fans are going to bitch about the bad, then give credit where its due. Say what you want, but given the relentless fan abuse and being winless, thats a pressure kick!!

Can't imagine how much venom would spew if he had missed.

Great job! Enjoy the win !

We are far from a good team, but I think we are growing in certain areas. Penalties were low for the second straight game. Only 3 flags on us.

FSU had 22 first downs

FSU 3rd down 6-15
Cuse 3rd down 2-12

FSU 4th down 2-2
Cuse 4th down 0-3

Goaline stop.

Finally got Cam McDonald involved.

FSU ran for 247 yards

We are not a good team, but I think we are growing in certain areas. Baby steps.

One other thing. Tre’Shaun Ward only got 2 carries. One he broke for 65 yards. Coaches should be getting him more opportunities.

Syracuse relies on the run, they will not be able to do that against us. Wish I was there for our first win of the season!

Wide receiver got completely tackled, no flag.

I guess it isn’t only in the ACC

You think maybe he hired coaches he knew he could direct the way he wanted, and didn’t challenge himself to bring in coaches who wouldn’t always agree and fight for their position on a subject/player etc?

I would hope coaches hire coaches that make them better, challenge them, and also compliment them.. You don’t just hire Yes men, you hire the best you can get whether that is male/female, young/old, and you don’t need to be best friends you need results period

Are FSU fans the worst in college football? Thought it was UF fans but.........

Than Syracuse tonight… man is it hard to get your first win. Especially after losing 4 straight to start the season.

Of course it was super ugly. Same ol head scratching play call and execution we have been seeing all year. Yet, I am super proud of the team and CMN to pull one out.

Norvell has a bad team right now, but seeing a bad team fight each week is a sign of good times to come. Imagine when we have a talented team that also has the same fight…

Go Noles!!

Celebrating to be 1-4 like we just won a national championship. Not to mention we only won because of the help of the officials.

Silver lining: 2-10 still gets Norvellllllllll fired.

Exhibit A #3

do we look well coached? no. do we have a quarterback or offensive line? no. is the defense improving at all? not really.

Could someone who knows how, notify the accn and their announcers that our colors are Garnet and Gold, not maroon and gold!

My 5 year old boy went crazy when the kick went in…just gave me a little perspective

a win feels good…enjoy it boys

At end of game? My recording stopped with 20 sec left

Sorry - I don’t advise living life this way. But it is what it is.

having said that - at this point EVEN I CAN TAKE SATISFACTION IN A WIN.

sheesh people. Take stock of where we are as a program and just enjoy every small victory.

There are hardly any really good teams this year. Makes our season even more disappointing.

Nothing new, but they gave Travis very little time to make reads. Kid ran for his life almost every time he dropped back to pass. Recruiting is the only way FSU returns to prominence.

That’s right!

Finally.

No one here is under any illusions we're good. So all of you who are going to be all pissy over this win- can you please let the rest of us just enjoy a win for the week? Please?

It was a fluke.

lots of experience. Makes a huge difference in games and especially against teams like ND. It is a key to WF success also.

…and 99% of our worst and most costly mistakes are players from older regimes. Just something to consider. They are the ones who really cannot focus for 4 quarters and lapse in effort the most.

Glad we won, though. Go Noles. Let’s keep getting better.
