A shovel pass to Samuels (a slot WR/RB who had 12 catches for 64 yards) for 14 yards and a 71 yard TD pass to a receiver that was a short throw in which the WR juked Derwin James out of his shoes and went the distance.



Thank you sir. Yet another example of merely reading the box score and making a decision about what happened with absolutely no context.

I watched most of the game too and you're right, they dink and dunked around FSU's rush all game long. Other than it being Daboll's first game as OC, I still don't know why we didn't too. I was screaming for screen passes all game long.

I will say, we completed a few of them (Bo in the flat at around the 15 for one) and FSU played them well and made immediate tackles. But I agree, we didn't seem to find the openings very often. It was frustrating.

I was pretty surprised at how sloppy FSU looked from an aggression and a tackling standpoint against NC State. Maybe it was the long layoff, I don't know, but their tackling looked like the start of last season, not their game against us.
