Normally the FSU win would be a no brainer for me but I'm to the point that I'm leaning the other way. I would like to see us in a BCS bowl before there aren't any more and we only have a couple more

Winning the BE is the most important thing. That being said I want the BE ring AND I want to beat FSU. No excuses for losing in our own house this season!

Haven't we already beaten them? Let's move on.

I'll take the win over FSU. 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.

ANyWay, we'll go 1-1 against FSU this year.

We'll beat them in the Orange bowl.

A BEAST Championship would do alot more for our program than a second win over a 'rival' program.

Win them both!!!

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

They said it best on 98.7 today... a win against FSU would be a signature win, but a Big East championship would be a signature season. So it comes down to whether you want another signature win, or a signature season.

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.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
