The Hidden Advantage of Thursday Night Games... and an injury issue.

Everyone considers the difficulties, but how much do we think about the advantages?  Bill of scalpem was right when he talked about being fine with any type of Thursday Night win. 

Since playing on Thursday, FSU will be able to rest, practice, watch film, and get healthy on F, S, S, M, T, W, T, F.

Va Tech, however, only gets S, M, T, W, T.  They have to travel on Friday, so let's give them a half day of credit there. 

FSU has 8 days, Va Tech has 5.5  FSU has 45% more prep time than Va Tech.  This is an advantage.  Hopefully we get healthy.

Also, Watson's injury was to his hamstring, not his elbow.
