Bolded the pertinent part of your statement.

Well the ACC is getting clobbered in bowl games and it is ugly. There is a solid chance they don't win another bowl game and finish some 3-7 with the only win against Big 5 conferences being against Minnesota by 4 points

The ACC sucks a giant dong this year. The only other halfway decent team other than FSU is Clemson and they lost by two touchdowns to South Carolina.

FSU's schedule is an absolute joke.

They clearly are good but they definitely are overrated. Peoplep point to the stats and all those stats are saying is that average teams can replicate them

We need to put a guy who was a former QB in the slot, run the jet sweep but make it a pass and have Sammy "miss a block" and sprint on a go route. Nobody would expect it

Has there been any discussion about practice facilities? FSU is at Orange Coast College which has a new state-of-the-art fitness complex while Auburn is at UC Irvine. I don't think they even have a football team so I guess they'll practice at the soccer field?

Chris Fowler said they ARE pulling up the turf after the rose bowl. I was wrong and I am not happy about this decision

I doubt Auburn is doing something subpar. Rose bowl locker rooms and feel isn't very nice though so maybe they are replicating it

Welp apparently it's full now so

I figure for a you OT Ballas spending thousands to head out West, you'll take the saving wherever you can get them

If anyone does go though please share details. Partying with Sir Charles is on my bucket list

Isn't that what we do here on the Sports Board is have discussions?

Really? So SOS whether weak or strong won't prove to be a factor for a team in this game? Interesting. I guess the season leading up to it didn't happen.
