I don't think Rudolph will play unless he absolutely has to. Walsh will be our starter through the season barring injury or absolutely terrible play.

We have talent throughout the roster, it's just very young in some spots.

Is any of this talent also female? Because you could also use that to distract Jameis. Even better if you can have her pretend to be drunk and confused.

 

[andycapps]

Les is too cray

@AschoffESPN: Just so great RT @SEC_Chuck: True story RT @AschoffESPN: I'm pretty sure Les Miles called @SEC_Chuck "bae" to start his teleconference

 

[mre]

Reporter: Usually when there is a QB competition, the more experience (at quarterback has) usually leads to that guy being named the starter. What has Blake Sims not done in camp to take full reign of being the starter?

Saban: “Well, nothing has really happened in camp. Both guys have played well. I think it’s our responsibility to give both guys an opportunity. That’s how we recruit players to come here, that they’re all going to get a fair opportunity to play. We’re going to choose the best players that give our team the best opportunity to be successful based on how they perform. Both guys have performed well. Blake has performed very, very well. And nobody ever said that he wasn’t going to start the game, so I don’t know why you would make those kind of assumptions.”

Reporter: “It wasn’t an assumption, coach. It was basically saying you haven’t named a starter and typically the more experienced guy going into a season…”

Saban: “That’s all hypothetical. I mean, our situation here is our situation here. I’ve been very up front in how we’re managing it and how we’re handling it, which is best for our team and our players. And that’s all I care about. And I don’t care about ‘typically’ anything. That’s a hypothetical.”

Reporter: “No problem.”

Saban essentially got the reporter to apologize for asking a seemingly innocuous question. :jnc

We'll go the crab leg route, thanks.

I am having trouble focusing at work today! Headed up to Seattle tomorrow for our game against Rutgers and going to the Mariner game on Friday to see Felix pitch. Great sports week!

It never hurts to have a back-up plan. That's all I'm saying.

 

[Monroeski]

So Gundy says that at least 8 true freshmen will play.

At it again, I see.

There are 12 newcomers to the team listed between true freshmen, JUCOs, and transfers...It's estimated that as few as just 2 or 3 members of the 2014 recruiting class could redshirt.

not having a NCAA game to quell the football thirst, has made the last few weeks shitty.

That, and general real life chaos.

Why would you do this. Can't you see you're hurting me?



Ditto. School, bah. :/

He doesn't need to come back. He chose a bunch of random people over Bedrock Personalities, like Limedust, StoOge, Threeballz, Bertramnuticus, myself and whichever alt that Dammitttmatt is currently using.

LET HIM EAT CRABLEGS.

Ive found nike trainers to run big, im usually a 13 but can get a way with a 12 on these. Although I would probably advise hit up a store first to try it out before buying.

West coast GAF is used to it by now. Many bars open at 8 or 9am at the latest in Los Angeles. Nothing like being drunk at 9am for the red river shootout and having a hangover by noon

It had to be a meaningful response between our chosen teams.

Jesus, man. Sorry to hear that. First thing I'd suggest doing is eating something, anything, since you haven't eaten all day. After that, I dunno, it depends upon how you deal with grief? You can either sit at home flipping through pictures and reminiscing about your dog or you can go do something to stay busy, like going to a movie.

Abilene Christian just moved up to FCS from Division 2 last season. They weren't even in an FCS conference last season (were just FCS independent) but joined the Southland Conference this season.

Sorry for your loss. Make sure you hydrate too.

CFBfam, it's been a long time. Shit, it's been a long year. New job and new baby boy. I even worked a part-time job for 6mos to pay off a bathroom remodel and having-a-baby hospital bills. it's been a blur.

Last season was....disappointing because I was too busy to really enjoy it. I'd been waiting for a long time for the kind of season FSU had, and dammit if I didnt have to DVR about half the games. Either that, or I was too tired to go watch the games with friends.

But I'm back, mothefuckers. I'll be active in the Pick Em. Can't wait. I'll post my FSU season prediction later, along with a review of my prediction from last year.

Yeah, man. No problem. Now I want Chinese food for dinner, but we're having leftover tacos.

And there's my perspective that my day wasn't all that bad. I'm so sorry for your loss. My pets mean the world to me. I would honestly want to get out of the house if I were you, but as mre said, do what makes you feel comfortable. Movies, video games, beers and food with friends, anything to keep you moving forward.
