GT better than advertised in my humble opinion. Of course I am pulling for FSU.

I clearly missed the thread on new rules for college football this year. Helmet speakers, two minute warning, no special clock rules un the last 2 minutes?

Are they trying to make this the NFL? Next thing you know they will be paying players.

Neither of these teams can get the ball deep. FSU is getting whipped up front right now. Of course, them losing probably helps OM in the rankings & playoff hunt.

Just me or does King have a funky throwing motion? Looks like he is jumping into it or something.

GT has G5 transferred lineman and FSU D Line are GA and Bama transfers. You never know what you are going to get out of the portal. Now GT has a five-star QB helping out, that came from the portal but still.

Every year there are early games like this that demonstrate that pre-season rankings should be abolished.

Just wait and see what happens. There is a clear benefit for teams to be ranked in any given week. Take 2022, for instance, where we finished ranked and Ole Miss did not, but Ole Miss was ranked for most of the year thanks to being ranked in the made-up preseason polls, so they're the ones who benefited more from the "rankings" in 2022 overall.

Everyone seems to think Ole Miss is a shoe in for the playoff. Yeah, they have a good shot, but the ACC is going to have three or four really good teams. Big 10 will have their usual number of good teams possibly adding one or two. The Big 12 will end up with three good teams. No one knows how good or how bad a team is going to be with the portal.

I don’t think FSU should be ranked, terrible defense and DJ U looks like a bust

Good for GT. Fun game to watch. FSU needs to review their QB options and work on that OL.

They’re not a shoo in by any means. But I’m not sure the ACC has any good teams. Maybe 1 or 2 Big 12 teams. You’ll see SEC & Big 10 with 4 teams each in the playoffs. Possible one or the other gets 5.

I can see that. We will find out real fast how good Clemson. Next weekend. Miami plays Florida next week so I don't know what we will know about them, but they got a bunch of portal guys as well. We will see.

I didn’t think I would watch this all the way through but glad I did. Very entertaining and glad to see FSU go down.

I just caught the end of it, but I’m always glad to see the non-flashy teams/programs take down the flashy teams/programs.

There will be one or possibly two teams in the playoff that no one is expecting. The portal has change everything. I have a feeling North Carolina or Wake Forrest will be dark horses. Just a feeling. My feelings won't be hurt if it doesn't pan out.

The handicapper that Dick Cross had on yesterday called this one, he said take the GA Tech +10 and told why, because they really weren't that good last year

Down goes Florida State!
What a way to kick off the season! The coaches lost that one, not the players.

I am not sure that the ACC will have a quality team, but someone has to win that league and will be a top 4 seed in the playoff - likely candidates Clemson, Miami, maybe even Virginia Tech or NC State.
