According to Jameis, game could have gone either way

Said if you're real with yourself, you know this game could have gone either way. Oh, and apparently they went 1-1 last night because they beat themselves
I've compiled a list of Fla State games that could have gone either way this year.
Okla St
Clemson
Notre Dame
Louisville
Miami
Florida
BC
Ga Tech
Oregon, no. Most of those turnovers were forced and they couldn't stop the run. The guy next to Winston looked like he wanted to crawl under a rock when Jameis said "we beat ourselves".

Jameis says a lot of dumb things, and it's pretty obvious he doesn't have a filter. He probably should've just given Oregon their props and congratulated them on a great game.
...but I have to admit that I want a someone who never believes they've been beaten by a better athlete. That kind of thinking is what motivates the best athletes/musicians/scholars to perfect their craft.

I understand exactly what you're saying but when you pull out that many close games, then get beat by 39, you might want to keep that 'could have gone either way' shite to yourself.

One could argue that they beat themselves. It was a close game right up until they started turning the ball over. Turnovers are always a mix of ball insecurity by the offense and aggressiveness from the defense. Jameis just sees it as something they should've done better.
They certainly missed some opportunities. The game wasn't as lobsided as the score indicates.

It was a loser thing to say. Be humble in defeat as you are in victory. Acknowledging they were better does not mean a better athlete. I think saying that publicly is embarrassing.

Other than the 35 points on 5 turnovers, Jameis is right.
Posted on 1/2/15 at 8:23 am to eddieray
He said they beat themselves too
Regardless how many turnovers you don't say you beat yourself when you lose 59-20 and can't stop them

I wish I could have been a fly on the wall at Mrs McCarron's house during his presser

bullshite. FSU giving up in the second half shows just how lopsided the game was.

At least he didn't run off the field like a baby after the game like over half his team did.
That was pathetic.

I mean, Oregon had to carry and throw the ball, and didn't get turned over so I don't know about the turnover excuse. The way I see it, yes, if everything goes Fla State's way, then it may have ended kind of close, but that's not how football works. Oregon wore that arse out.

You can't just take them out though. It's not like they were bobbled snaps or muffed punts. Oregon earned those turnovers.

While true from an outsiders perspective, every offensive player/coach should think turnovers are preventable.

OK. If Oregon's defense hadn't created so many turnovers (slash, if FSU hadn't had so many giveaways), the game could have gone either way.
Posted on 1/2/15 at 9:20 am to EarthwormJim
That doesn't make it true. Oregon was clearly the better team yesterday. There is no way to get around that.
