Offense

  • Neither of these QBs are very good. Don't buy into the false narratives, keep perspective.

    • Golson better escaping pressure, but also creates more pressure

    • Golson does make checks, just not as often/well as Maguire

    • Maguire doesn’t handle pressure well

    • Maguire late, but not as late as EG on his throws

    • Downfield passing element

  • Patrick did some good things, still need him to run big

    • Pass pro, receiving

    • Head up, pads down

  • OL

    • Eberle pretty good after some jitters, not sure Hoefeld is better

    • Ruble not, if Kelly not back have to protect him constantly with tight end

    • Mavety good run blocking, pass blocking iffy

  • Wilson and Rudolph had big games

    • Wilson sneaky good game, Rudolph had the big numbers

Defense

  • Young guys Sweat and James could be among best ever at FSU if they keep progressing at this rate.

  • Terrance Smith not a superstar, but have to have him back or Clemson will eat FSU alive over the middle

Special teams

  • Aguayo, beatty, return team

Other

  • Jimbo preaches patience in presser (prelude to Clemson?)

  • Opening line: Clemson -12

  • UGA job?

  • VT job?
