September 3, 20179 yr This game should have been played later in the season. Why? Both teams healthy, neutral site, months to prepare. Bama is just better it's pretty simple. If you want to say well fsu will get better, so will Bama too though. Sadly all your fsu talk failed them.
September 3, 20179 yr Last year he got beat on, and showed tremendous resolve. He's taken some shots tonight too, but he's had more time on a lot of throws, and neither of his INTs was pressure an issue. He simply tried to make plays that weren't there both times. Alabama's secondary made him pay each time. He's a very talented player, but he just simply hasn't elevated his level tonight. Even so - the special teams is what lost this game for FSU and won it for Alabama. Bama has blocked a FG (-3), blocked a punt (+3), recovered a fumble on a kickoff that should have never been returned (+8), and added that last FG after Matthew Thomas failed to recognize a fair catch signal and set Alabama up inside the 40 (+3). That's 17 points right there. How much is Florida State losing by? No doubt. Special teams is the reason FSU is going to lose. FSU D showed up big time. The O Line hasn't progressed at all since last year.

I hope the rematch is in January. Bama can have this one Noles need to win the one that counts. Bama played a good game tonight.

Sadly all your fsu talk failed them. This game was decided by two things. FSU O line hasn't progressed since last year, and special teams mistakes. Bama is better, but I would like to see this game played again simply because of all of the silly mistakes FSU made. I still think these are two of the 4-5 best teams in the country. FSU is better than they showed tonight. If the O line can advance even a little as the season goes on I wouldn't want to play FSU.
