Christian Ponder had successful shoulder surgery to repair damage resulting from his Grade-3 shoulder separation suffered against Clemson. He is expected to return for limited non-contact action in Spring. Shoulders are a funny surgery, but with rest and rehab, the ACC's top passer should once again be 100%.

Also, Florida State @ Florida will be the site of ESPN's College Gameday

Good news and bad news

Good news that Ponder is done with surgery and healing. Bad news in that FSU and the circus at our program will take center stage on Gameday. I can’t wait for this season to be over and I never say that. *sigh

good news about ponder

Now, what is the over/under on the times the Gameday crew says something to the effect of “this game has lost a lot of its luster?”

This season has really lacked marquee match-ups.

It is a down year for a lot of rivalries. UT-OU, USC-ND, Mich-OSU, UM-FSU, UF-FSU, UF-UGA, Aub.-Ala, and OU-Neb to name a few.

The thought of all the Tebow man love at that game makes me shudder.

Really sad news,

Tallahassee Democrat FSU beat writer Steve Ellis who had a heart attack last week passed away after surgery yesterday.

Condolences to his family.

no way the 3 way lasted 10 minutes

Gary was done before he took his pants off.

This makes me want to swallow a handful of Vicodin with a 5th of vodka.

I can’t wait for the highlight compilation of Tebow spazzing out like a 6 year-old at a Build-a-Bear workshop after converting opening drive, 3rd downs against FCS teams set to R Kelly’s ‘I Believe I Can Fly’. It will be epic.
