This made me laugh...

He's opining that FSU should not take the fact that it was a close game as proof of a return to elite status, that only a win will do that, etc.


But once again, Stoops and his boys sucked the life out of 'Nole Nation. It was like they came into FSU's house, wiped their muddy feet on the carpet, flicked cigar ashes on the furniture and rode off with the Seminole Cowgirls.

Hee hee!! You can read the rest of the article here:

He calls Stoops the "Seminole Slayer", pretty apropos, I believe.

Heh. I don't think we did anything bad like deface property or disrespect house rules, just like we came into their house on poker night and left with all the cash. :D

IMO, Bianchi is just a journalistic flame baiter in the same vein as Cowherd. He does it to all the "home" teams.

That's probably true, Orlando, IDK the guy, don't normally read his stuff, I just saw this and thought it was funny. He says moral victories are for directional schools, FSU is still far from elite, etc. but I actually disagree with him--I wouldn't call it a moral victory for FSU, but they played loads better than they did last year, they acutally HAVE a defense now, something they haven't had in years, a pretty dang good defense, actually, and while they were probably overrated at #5, they do have a lot of talent, an up-and-coming QB and some very good coaches. They are MUCH closer to where they want to be now than they were in September of 2009 when Bowden was still the HC, with no end to his reign in sight. Not bad for 2 years work.

Bianchi sucks. So does Brian Schmitz. There's a reason they call that paper The Slantinel.

I enjoyed it, thanks for posting it. I don't think either team was elite Saturday Night but the defenses played better than I have seen for a long time.
