re: FSU game will be a bloody mess

Have enjoyed reading the reply's.. Much different than before we played last year, or before you all played UCLA to start the season. I sense some earned respect for the matchup.

Brase yourselves for a very close game. It will be close from start to finish. Back and forth with lead changes and momentum. Neither team will run away with this game. Too much pride and talent on both side of the ball for that.

Keep in mind, it is very hard to beat LSU in New Orleans, and even though it was just by 1 point, that is still hard to do.

It is similarly hard to beat FSU in Orlando. FSU is 9-0-2 playing in Orlando. Undefeated. LSU is 3-3.

FSU has zero weaknesses on Offense. Matter of fact elite at every position except for OL but it is above average.. but elite at WR, QB, RB and TE.

On defense, FSU has an elite DL.. lead by Jared Verse who will be a top 5 pick. The other starting defensive end (Payton) was ACC rookie of the year. However, after the starters, there is a noticeable drop off along the DL, LB'ers and Safety's. If there is a weakness, it would be the back end of the defense. DL and LB'ers are great, CB's and Safetys will be hit and miss and may be exploited from time to time. Especially with formations and confusion.

This game will be another epic game, so just be prepared for a tough, hard fought game.
