The fall off from Jordan Travis to DJU is the biggest fall off in college football since the fall off from Trevor Lawrence to DJU.

Max Chadwick @MaxChadwickCFB

Oregon State was able to mask DJ’s deficiencies because they were able to kick everyone’s ass with their offensive line and Damien Martinez.
DJU would then win off play-action when defenses stacked the box.
Florida State cannot do that.

I’m not being dramatic when I say DJ Uiagalelei is the worst quarterback I’ve ever watched play American Football

Rodger Sherman @rodger

Oh so you won’t let Florida State into the playoff if they win every game? Well what if they LOSE every game? What then? You still won’t let them in? Ok yeah I guess that makes sense

Nicole Auerbach @NicoleAuerbach

It has not helped Florida State that both of its first two games were the only game on television in its window.
We allllll can see this.

Katie Pondiscio @kpondiscio

Florida State really spent their entire off season complaining and suing, and forgot to practice any football

Taylor Hart @shottotheHart

Is Mike Norvell on the hot seat?#FSUvsBC

Thomas Casale @TheTomCasale

Boston College is taking a knee to not run up the score on Florida State.
Didn’t have that one on the bingo card coming into the season.

After missing out on the CFP last year, Florida State sued the ACC in hopes of getting out of the convention and right into a extra aggressive one just like the SEC or Huge Ten. After shedding to 2 ACC groups of their first two video games, that call has now backfired on the Seminoles.

Now 0-2, Florida State will spent its bye week looking for solutions on the way to flip a disastrous begin to the season round. However issues do not get a lot simpler when the Seminoles return to motion on Sept. 14, as they will tackle a robust Group of 5 workforce, Memphis.

Primarily based on their rating coming into the yr, the Seminoles needs to be undefeated and flying excessive. As a substitute, they’ve two losses and head into their bye week demoralized.
