Lol, we deserve one more than they do. Egregious holding on the edge, atrocious spots, multiple PIs uncalled, but sure. Directional Florida deserves a letter.

Where they considered Becht “starting” a slide was ******* criminal, the whole game. If he so much as slowed down, they’re like “yup, started the slide there”. So many lost yards to that crap.

There was one time where I thought he started the slide around 2-3 yards short and the next play it was like 2nd or 3rd and 6 lol.

We are not vastly overrated in basketball. Period. End of discussion. While we may not end up that high, we are not overrated.
Dude, we are absolutely are. We aren't going to be starving for wins to be getting into the postseason,

Oh, the preseason projection is WAY overrated, I can assure you. We are not going to be starving for wins for getting into the NC Postseason, but did you seriously think we'd be picked top-ten??? Be real. I'll raise my hand. Didn't see it. Hope so though..

I would guess he slid 4-5 times. I would guess we lost 10 yards on those slides from where his slide started. And the majority of those were in 3rd down.

Coyote Ugly, but Rocco made it happen when it counted. My quick take - the interior offensive line took a step back tonight - 51 (Black) was a turnstile - need to get that shored up over the bye. Our young Clones got further nicked up tonight - Hansen and Brahmer exited and Higgins appeared to be limping - again, that bye week comes at a good time. Go State!
Such a weird game. Got punched. Came back with Hanson. Seemed like we're about to break them. Then it was a punt. Spiraled after that. Endured, overcame. Win!

Like I've told everybody all summer, when you have 18 of 22 starters coming back from a 7-6 team where three of the losses were by one score it was bound to be better. And now that makes two games where we win by one score instead of losing by one score. The one more year of maturity is huge. Now if a team has 18 of 22 starters coming back from a team that was, say, 2-10, and none of the losses were close....well that's a different thing all together.

Even Eric Heft hated it, luckily the PI was 2 plays later.
After a first down and we’re just getting to wind the clock. Worst case you can call an actual play and snap a 55-59 sec.

It seemed like a bad play that they got away with.

But getting away with some bad things was the theme of the night. Champions find a way.
