    my parents were at the dempsey record game in tulane stadium i believe vs detroit. had some upset people in the parking lot because they left and missed the longest fg in nfl history which stood forever.

    alex karras was on detroits d and he said they werent even trying to block it. they just wanted to get in the backfield to get a better view of how short it would be. i thought he was joking but after watching this, he wasnt. they didnt even try to block it.

    @tirk I was there too, opposite end zone, watching it from behind Dempsey's back.

    opinion.
    boosted by an impressive game, but they did not play one of the top 4 teams, and will not play two in a row.
    TCU and OSU are interchangeable in my mind, both top tier, but not good enough to win it all.

    im wondering before kickoff if FSUs athletes can dominate this game.

    and after 3 plays its looks like it may happen.

    ive been thinking TCU is the best team since midseason. i still believe it but alas, all is lost.

    Yeah it's definitely my opinion, It's not an opinion that they got shafted though. Ohio State lost to a terrible team. TCU didn't and it was by just a few points Ohio State by 2 touchdowns.

    dropping from 3rd to 6th makes complete sense after winning by 52.


    Looks like FSUs defense will continue to suck as they have most of the year. i thought they might show up one game.

    also, i dont like donald duck on the jerseys.
