College football is getting so dumb. Their coach is on the hot seat after 3 point conference loss in Ireland? Get a grip FSU fans. I mean, a #10 team lost to an unranked conference foe... FSU was 10.5 point favorites. Georgia Tech O/U on wins for the season is 4.5, and +10000 to win the ACC. They are not predicted to be a good team at all. This is, by all measures, an embarrassing loss. Like I get it, calm down. But for real, this is ugly. FSU is already on the outside looking in for the playoff race in week one. it is that bad.

The writeup I saw on the game was critical of DJ but said Georgia Tech dominated the lines on both sides of the game. Tough to have an impressive game if the D is manhandling your OL. I didn't watch it to see if I'd agree with the writer's opinion on the line play.

Exactly. pretty sure DJ wasn't on the field when GT had the ball the last 6:33 of the game or when GT went on a 14 play drive that took 7:53 off the clock in the 2nd Qtr. Yet for some reason QB gets the blame majority of the time lol Two drives in the third quarter that made it to GT territory with the game tied at 14 two times DJ can't convert on 3rd down, second time taking a sack no less. You are right, GT went on back to back 6+ minute drives to close out this game. He didn't lose it alone, but in the second half DJ had two drives where he went 1/5 for 15 yards, and took a sack. You just can't do that. 19/27 198 yards 0 TDs 0 INTs is a painfully familiar stat line. It fits in exactly with his run of box scores here. You can't have that kind of uninspiring play at #10 Florida State. it is what got you run out of Clemson. Lol... of you go again with your superior knowledge. Watch the game? So on the key 3rd down plays you so desperately want to support your contention... the other 10 offensive players all executed their job? Just one, DJU effed up the plays? LMFAO... LOS was controlled be a more athletic,GaTech team. And... a quick search of your past 2023 season posts you seem to like DJU's arrival, leadership, sharing his NIL bounty, and no mention of his terrible play. Did I miss those posts? The posts that the team was a playoff team? (That's still hilarious!)

FSU is already on the outside looking in for the playoff race in week one. it is that bad. Do rankings even matter now? Nope... CFP ranking is all that matter. And, FSU can still win the ACC at 11-1, 10-2 for auto berth or be in top 12 if GaTech has a winning season and a 2nd loss is to a ranked team. Hell... it's the CFP and depending on other teams a 9-3 P4 record could get a 11 or 12 seed. Especially if the committee tries to appease for last season although totally warranted. FSU have a decently tough schedule, and basically a completely new team. As most know there is no guarantee a #10 preseason ranking means they were a CFP team anyway. That FSU is out of a 12 team playoff after 1 college game being played is a complete reach based on pure animus.

The posts that the team was a playoff team? (That's still hilarious!) I was excited. I said all throughout 2022 we were a QB away. Then I watched him play 12 games for us. This may stun you, but people are, in fact, allowed to change their opinions with new information. I am not obligated to stick to my excitement I had before I saw him play for us, after I saw the evidence of him playing for us. I can use new information to change what I feel about a situation. We are all allowed to do that. Smart people do that. Stupid people stand stead fast with opinions in the face of contradictory information, usually due to some foolhardy ego driven attempt to save face, or some sad sack crap like that. People can and should admit when they were wrong. I was very wrong to be excited about DJU. he sucks. He wasn't the guy. We were a QB away in 2022 and a QB away in 2023. Most of American, hell the whole world, can really stand to learn that lesson from time to time. We are not bound to hold iron clad opinions for eternity. things can and do change. Our team was a playoff team. Our QB was not a playoff QB. Every other part of the team did it's job. We put a WR in the NFL. we put a lineman in the NFL. another WR went to Texas as a transfer. 6 other guys off that team signed UDFA contracts. We had a great line, two great running backs, an NFL quality WR and another well above average one, a third that is a UDFA in the NFL, we had a well above average defense, top 3rd in the nation. We were a team that should of been in position all season to win the Pac-12 and was absolutely capable of doing so. One time, it is a one off. Two times it is a coincidence. but three times? four times? five? six? how many times of DJU going cold, not converting third downs, not hitting check downs, not locking down key drives, across 3 different teams before it isn't the rest of the team that is at fault? Guy is on his 3rd team. at some point it ain't the rest of the team that is the problem here.

Rankings and odds mean literally nothing this early. It's even worse now that 40% roster turnover is completely normal. For all we know GT will win the ACC and this loss barely hurts FSU.
