Has to be biggest OOC game we've played since I can remember.Anyone here going? Ordered tickets a few weeks ago, still waiting for them, but counting down the days :D

I feel our offense will be as good if not better than last year but ready to see this defense take the field. It has lots of potential but still young.

I just don't think we're beating Florida state . Our offense will score some points but it will be inconsistent because our new offensive line doesn't have much experience working together and fsu has two defensive ends that would start for anyone and had 12 sacks last year . Fsu will also be hard to stop defensively because cook is the best rb in the country and he will get his yards no matter what . We just have to limit big plays by him because if he starts reeling off 50 yard runs they may put 40 on us . They're starting a freshman qb but we have absolutely no film on him and they have experienced wrs going up against a young and inexperienced rebel secondary . All of this combined together probably means we don't pull this one off . I hope we win this thing and I hope if we do lose we give them a hell of a game and go out swinging . However, if we do win against a team like this then the hype will be unprecedented . I'm saying

Fsu : 35

Rebs :24

Fsu scores a late 4th quarter touchdown to pull away .

I think, and you can correct me if I am wrong, we have the same OL with the exception of the LT that beat Bama last year. LT is my concern and like you said they have speed off the ends.

Rod Taylor is said to be looking good at the LT spot. Wants to make amends for last year.

Tickets came in today! Haven't been this excited for a game in a long time.

I think we can pull it out. Seems our teams step up for the big ones(let's forget TCU). Offense will be better IMO and I think we are deeper on the depth chart top to bottom than many years before. I know FSU will be ready though.

Got mine two days and my parents are in town. They pay half since I only get to make 2/3 games a year and use them. They take them to my aunt's condo and leave them there.

Headed to Orlando in a couple of weeks. Georgia is on the schedule. I have to find another to go to.

We're flying in the Thursday before, doing Disney Friday, Universal Saturday, taking Sunday off(pool at the house we've rented) and then head home Tuesday morning after the game.

:lol: Yea, skipped a summer vacation for Disney and the game. I just hope we win because my Disney visit may not be as "magical" as it should if we don't. :?

Do you have any idea on parking for the game? I rented a car for Monday and Tuesday and did a little research and seems to be plenty of pass free parking near stadium...?

Oh ok. Not a bad idea. May look for pass just in case.
