quote:Bama is probably a good deal better than FSU, but I'm not sure about a top 10 ranking. I want to see if there's any meaningful improvement in offensive line play and the running game in general before I'd go that far. Somewhere around the preseason ranking of 13 is fair.
No need to troll my man. Bama is easily a top 10 team and FSU is not even close.
The defense looks to be improved over last year, though.

The bowl blowout to Georgia is a pretty meaningless measuring stick in the grand scheme of things
It was the mass opt out/exodus prior to the UGA game that should have been the red flag. That’s a colossal failure in team & culture development.
Horrifying to consider Byrne was ever considering him as a replacement for Saban.

FSU wanted to get rid of him last year,
Bobby Bowden made FSU and his legacy is in serious danger of disappearing.
Sure, Jimbo won a title in '13 but he left the program in a mess much like Urban Cryer did in Gainesville. The Gators have still not recovered but are still a big brand. FSU's brand is fading.
In today's era with some previously terrible or mediocre programs knocking on the door, you can lose relevance. Many kids have no idea of the brand that Bowden built and, besides, it's all about the money now. Apparently FSU was behind in NIL and hadn't fully adopted an NFL general manager system.
The ACC has one premier team right now: Miami. Clemson is in a downward spiral and FSU is in the abyss. Maybe Va Tech bounces back or SMU's money will keep them stocked. FSU really isn't in the discussion.
Wrap a dead fish in some newspaper because they are sleeping with the fishes.

And no Gus Malzahn on the staff this season to sprinkle in his voodoo. Say Alabama wins in a 42-3/42-10 type game. Surely Mike Norvell is gone after this game, right? They just fired their AD earlier today. That can't be good.
They probably won't can him after this game when his team's a 20.5 point dog on the road, but if things go south quickly in ACC play, he will be gone with the quickness
