He already said this years is better!
He said more talented and then started backpedaling about when the man hired to write about FSU football stated the exact same thing I stated about FSU's DL experiencing a noticeable drop and their scheme as a whole not being as sound in its initial year in the new system.
I have no problem with people expecting FSU to win, I expect over half of America to feel that way. The problem is people just generically throwout claims that don't hold any water this year.
If FSU wins this year it'll be because of Winston not their D. Clemson dropped 35 on a better FSU defense last year in Tallahassee.

Quick trivia, what team leads the nation in third down defense at the moment? Hint, it's one who played a full strength UGA team with Gurley AND Marshall.
Doesn't FSU and Winston lead the country in third down conversions?

FSU also destroyed Maryland 63-0 at home when they were ranked (for a short time), and Maryland had a pretty decent offense.
FSU did destroy Maryland. But as far as stopping their O, didn't the Maryland QB get knocked out?
That aside, with Clemson's offense struggling in recent games and being unable to establish a second WR for Boyd to hit up when Watkins is blanketed, I see FSU's D forcing a couple of quick 3 and outs and then eventually forcing Boyd into pressing and forcing thows and leading to more turnovers.
FSU 38 Clemson 23

The issue . . . isn't the players, its the drastic change of systems.
This is true for the entire team. Damn near the whole coaching staff was replaced, save for Jimbo. That is why I think Clemson wins. New defensive scheme vs. a talented, experienced QB with some weapons on the road in a hostile environment... redshirt freshman QB on the road in his first true hostile environment.
I like Jameis as much as the next guy, but this is a tall order. I hope he stays for 4 years, but I don't know that he is winning a championship in his first. Next year, though, LOOK OUT.

What is FSU ranked in total defense?

Higher than Clemson

I'm just saying people are making it out like FSU is the 85 Bears and Clemson is the 2012 Saints.
FSU is 3rd in PPG, Clemson is 10th.
The best offense FSU has played is Maryland? Clemson has played UGA.
The only common opponent they've each played, FSU gave up 20 more points and 200 more yards.

It will be a great game. One for the ages.

Yea I can't wait.
At the end of the day, you could make an argument for either and be right or wrong on Saturday. Just glad this many people actually GAF about an ACC game that we can get a decent discussion on the MSB

In reality, we're all homers so nothing we say really matters haha.
I will say I never thought I'd go into an FSU game with more confidence in our D than our O. I know Winston will have his moments, but I think we'll give him some tough sledding as well. I'm worried about whether our O can wake the fvck up!

And Clemson still gave up 35 points and 545 yards at home to them even with them turning it over 2 times and being pushed back 85 yards in penalties. 545 yards given up. I mean...frick.
Aside from Georgia, the rest of the teams Clemson has played suck arse. Clemson SHOULD be holding them to under 14 points.
