That was the best game I've been to in BDS in 9 years. The oline played surprisingly well against a tough FSU defense. I thought Calytor looked great.
If it is not totally obvious now why Nesbitt is the better choice at QB, then you're an idiot. Before the game I was talking about this with some friends, and after the game they agreed with me. NEsbitt was making a lot of right reads. Its much easier to do when your oline blocks for you!
Defense looked solid at times. Considering our secondary is banged up and we had three freshman getting some significant playing time, I thought our secondary looked great. Often Ponder didn't have anyone to pass to in the 2nd half. The defense obviously played a helluva lot different in the 2nd half than the first. So the right adjustments were made which is refreshing to see.
Special teams. Our kick off team sucks ass. We need to totally change this up or its going to cost us a game. When the kicker is the only one near the ball carrier that is pathetic.
Tackling. I thought our tackling looked bad to start out with but got much better after the first series.
Was surprised that there was not more attention on the worst call I have ever seen at a game. Down by 3 with 4 minutes left on 4th and 6, the FSU olineman clearly had a false start and they called offsides on the defense which gave FSU a 4th and 1 try instead of punting. I could see it from my seats, and I don't know how the ref missed it.
Between that and the should have been int by Burnette, FSU should never have even smelled the endzone. The fumble was sweet redemption for Coop and also justice was served.
That was the best game with the best atmosphere I've been to in a long time at BDS. One thing I will say is that a lot of fans gave their tickets up obviously thinking "we are gonna lose, why show up". I was surprised that the lower west stands which are traditionally some of our best fans, were littered with maroon. If you gave your tickets up, you are what is wrong with GT fans. Our fans are fickle and bandwagon types. We were 6-2 and playing a ranked FSU team at home which we haven't beaten since 1975 and you give your tickets away? Blow me.
