It's the BIGGEST home game in our history - and I doubt there will be another game in the immediate future anywhere near as big (unless an undefeated Boise comes to Tampa for the last game of the season and we're both undefeated). The FSU game comes against a program considered among the elite in the nation this season and the program currently considered the best in Florida. It's on national television. There is way more at stake with this season's FSU game. Do I want to lose a game or two in the Big East? No. However, our own impressions of the Big East don't help. The conference is rock solid from top to bottom... yet we pretend a second place finish in the Big East is not good enough. Who cares if we run the Big East if we lose to programs such as Miami and FSU IMO. The kids we want the most are looking at FSU and UM before they consider USF when it comes to recruiting. The new doors that would be open if we knocked off both programs in one year would speak volumes about the overall direction of the program. Just my two cents... looking at the big picture. **** ... Pretty compelling argument, and I'm wavering a bit, but I'm still thinking I want to get to a BCS bowl before they're gone and we only have two years to do that, this being our best chance out of those two (unless Asiantii IS really going to be "Cam Newton" as a freshman) .... even though as a fan base I don't think we're strong enough for a BCS bowl yet.

We'll beat them in the Orange bowl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BE Championship seems more important as we look at the future Clooege football landscape. (see Reliagnment) We already have "signature" victories: Auburn, Miami, #5 L'Ville, #5 WVU amd @ Pitt (when we were FCS) JMHO, Ty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it comes down to whether you want another signature win, or a signature season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already beat FSU. We NEVER. Won the big east. Shoot. We never have had a chance with 1 Big East game to go. Two things. As great as the FSU win was in '09, it turned out to be the worst FSU team in 30 years. I can't see this Nole team going 6-6. Second, what if we win the BE, but in a 8-5 BCS stomping UConn type manner? Just adding to the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
