Yeah, I don't know where the trend started but it ridiculous.

that would be exhibit 1 in "why ____ shouldn't be coaching"

coaches should have harsher penalties re: control of composure if they are to set the example for dozens of young men

And the tv crew always plays it off, "oh he's so intense and into the game, coaching so hard." No, he's a pathetic POS that can't keep himself off the field and makes it more about himself than the players.

I think Venables started it at Clemson and of course FSU had to follow suit.

I guess in some way a tribute to the NFL team is a tribute to a devastated community. that's definitely some "america's team" type logic

FSU just got a player flagged for targeting, he will miss the first half next week as well.

I have no idea if that was the right call under the targeting rulers written, but if it was, then the rule is absolutely terrible.

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Tennessee is only up 17-13 on UMass in the 4th, between Jones and Sumlin, there are some awful coaches at good football schools. The fat guy at Arkansas too.

 

[skinnydeac]

Jaylen Samuels is really good. Maybe Anquan Boldin potential. He doesn't seem to get recognition outside of the specific game he's playing though

 

[PhDeac]

Agreed. It looked like an incidental hand to the face. Maybe a penalty but not an ejection.

Agree about Samuels as well.

 

[tintinisahottie]

I can't ever remember watching a state game and thinking "the refs are on our side" but I'm here for it

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Tons of empty seats at Tennessee too. They've got too much going for them to have been a non factor for so long.

Yes, they have gone a bit overboard on some of these. While last night in UVA-Bosie St game a solid helmet to helmet was ignored. But the Fl St guy seemed intent to smack the NCSU guy in the facemask, could have easily letup. But, we'l take he is out for a half against us. Not ejection worthy tho'.

and the boo birds are out. Legoooooo minutemen. Tenn must still be beat up after losing to the gators last week.

 

[DeacsPop]

State up on FSU 27-16 with 9 to play.

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Looks like Tenn will survive. Doubt Jones does beyond this year.

 

[Lohengrin]

Best takeaway available: FSU isn't good; defense just as stale as offense; FSU allows NC State to "beat them twice"

 

[PhDeac]

It's quite possible FSU and State are both good teams.

It's possible we are good too and have a good shot at both at home.

 

[harmoniousmonk]

this aTm and ark game is nuts.

 

[liveanddiedeac]

We need to hit Blackman a lot next week.

 

[morrison2951]

We gonna' beat F$U.
