I dont mind FSU as of late, and I like Fisher as a coach. THe biggest thing for me though is taking it away from the the SEC.

After seeing the potatoes in my kitchen I really want bacon cheese fries now. Bar it is!

I hate FSU. I hate the SEC more..and the pre-game talk with Satan(saban) was dripping with SEC love and made me nauseous. I want FSU to blow out Auburn but it kills me to say that.

Onward and upward

Holtz picked Auburn...there's one more reason I want FSU to blow out Auburn

Onward and upward

Well they are a lucky team. Maybe he thinks they'll get a few extremely lucky and fluky plays a la the Georgia game.

Bold prediction: Auburn will attempt a FG, have it bounce off the uprights, deflect off an FSU defender's head and into the arms of the holder, who will run it in untouched, at which point a unicorn will descend upon the field with evidence of Bigfoot's existence.

After which, FSU will win.

"Exit light..."

that was all epic..I particularly liked the end though

Onward and upward

And the ugly Christmas sweater award goes to...

Bobby Bowen out with FSU captains for the coin toss.......pretty cool.

And Chris Weinke introducing Winston......he looks like he's my age.
He was freakin' 27 when he and the Holes beat us on that unfortunate night.

I'm not a bad Hokie supporting FSU am I? Someone help me out here...

I just had this conversation with my wife.
Hard to root for them, but I'm happy it's not Bama/Ohio State.

That game would've been the worst

It is always ok to root for whomever is playing against SEC.
Also note, rooting against SEC is like rooting against ESPN.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Auburn's WR Davis from Delray Beach Fla. There must be something in the water down there.

I have to say I wish we played in important games with the same intensity as these teams

Marcus Davis?

But can he block?

auburn in business now....that punt was critical

Onward and upward

LG and LT didn't get their heads on the correct side on that inside zone play, got beat, and the DE/LB were there to make the tackle.

Thanks, French.

I've been watching footwork of the OL players. First time in my life I have done that and I actually feel like I know what I'm looking for.

Thanks, French, indeed.

"Exit light..."

Yep, Auburn's line is impressive. Makes me drool to think of what could be to come at VT.
A line that blocks together? What?

i said from the very beginning that Jeff Grimes was the biggest acquisition in the whole deal...and I don't even know anything about football. ....so here's hoping I guessed right!! I'm optimistic for sure.

Onward and upward

I have been a little surprised with Auburn's defense so far. Was expecting a shootout.

"Vick, dashing back . . . here he comes again . . . Electrifying . . . and have you ever seen anything like this?"

is it just me or does it seem like FSU isn't running the ball as much as they should be?

I got downvoted on the reddit thread for asking why there isn't a CheerleaderCam on this megacast. I'm confused.

Also, I can't find the no announcers channel...

I'M SO SICK OF ALL THE TENNESSEE FANS ON FACEBOOK SAYING "SEC, SEC, SEC, SEC" UGH. Because Tennessee contributes so much to the SEC....

Sorry, rant over.

Ask them if they want to party like it's 1999.

In another note... im kind of ashamed to be rooting for any team that does that damn tomahawk chop.... seriously if it was just every touchdown it'd be pretty cool... but every freaking play

Taylor, looking desperately throws it deep..HAS A MAN OPEN DANNY COALE WITH A CATCH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FIVE!!!!....hes still open

Uh oh FSU

Too many receivers getting wide open over the middle = big problem. FSU should have given up 3 TDs by now, if that first one hadn't been underthrown.

"Exit light..."

That's what happens when you consistently have the safety trying to fill the linebacker's gap. That guy needs to play his own darn assignment.

Yea, the secondary has just looked confused.

"Exit light..."

Did anyone else catch when they said Winston was the first freshman qb to lead a team to the mncg? Clearly they never heard of Michael Vick....

They were talking about leading a team to a national championship (i.e. win it), not just lead them to the game.

"Exit light..."

Oh I must have missed the part about "can be.... To win a MNC"

Jimbo needs to stop reading the press clippings about his QB and just run the darn football. We saw the same thing against Florida and Duke. He spends the first half leaning on his QB, who can't handle it. Then, he starts pounding the rock in the 2nd half, the passing game opens up, and they smoke everyone. Jimbo: if you want to win, run the darn football.

So much this. Winston was clearly frazzled most if the first half. Fsu has three nfl backs that they barely used.

Maybe French or somebody else smarter than me can do an off season educational piece on what is holding and what is not, because I obviously have no clue.

Generally, if your hands are outside the shoulders, it's holding. Also, if the arm is wrapped around a defender's neck/shoulders or you see the jersey pulling off of the player, they usually call it.

I suspect he wrote that in #sarcastica because of some suspicious calls or rather lack of penalties

I am WAY too emotionally unstable right now to handle that sarcastica crap.

Sorry, should have noted the sarcastica.......

You all seriously have no clue on how badly I want Florida State to win this. I can't handle Tennessee fans. They're awful. You have no idea. Why is this game even about them, like how did they turn it into that?

Auburn is in the SEC. Tennessee is in the SEC. Auburn has orange as a color. Tennessee has orange as a color.

Clearly, Tennessee is relevant.

"Exit light..."

*beats Austin Peay* WOO WE'RE BACK. NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP BABY.

I confused you with imitating Miami for a second

For a moment there, I thought my unicorn prediction from above was about to happen. Juuuust missed it.

"Exit light..."

LOL

Onward and upward

Jimbo, WHAT DID I JUST SAY??? Stop putting so much on your QB and run the ball.

Good damn it!!!!

Damn they mentioned Jupiter where Cody Parkey the auburn kicker is from, he went to the same high school that I do, he was probably one of our best players ever.... We're not very good

This is not looking good.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

An Auburn score here could be a dagger.

Certainly will put a mountain of pressure on Winston, who already looks overwhelmed.

I'm with TechHokie13 - run the damn ball, Jimbo.

"Exit light..."

And there's your dagger, definenty not over yet though

FSU is confused and disorganized.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Only nice thing is the lack of the Tomahawk chop.
And Musburger is a tool.

3 or 4 offensive snap fouls now.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Somebody needs to tell musburger to stop getting so excited on kick returns. Like he starts counting the yardage at sound the 20... TWENTY-FIVE, THIRTEY. Oh and he's tackled

Well, I certainly didn't see that fake coming. Nicely done.

"Exit light..."

There we go!

Good, something worked.
Nice fake and reverse.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

WHERE WAS THE FACEMASK?!

Anybody else having a little bit of deja vu with FSU looking a little like a confused VT bowl team?

Too soon. Always too soon.

"Exit light..."

I'm actually nervous and feel like I'm watching a Virginia Tech game. It's a wonderful and stressful feeling.

They missed a face ask big time.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Good run winny.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Blah, blah, blah...Musburger.

If it ain't orange, it better be maroon...and if it ain't maroon, it better be soon!

Funny how both coaches, when interviewed at half, " like where we're at". We'll see who "likes where they're at" at the end of 4.

If it ain't orange, it better be maroon...and if it ain't maroon, it better be soon!

Everybody! Quick! Start rooting for Auburn! We can turn this around in the 2nd half because the team we usually want to win this year doesn't

8-5

that is all

Onward and upward

Sports analyst mode:
Just looking at the numbers, we'd say that you're right. But let's look a little deeper. When you do that and adjust for schedule strength and look at the specific matchups on the inside, you can clearly see that the team we want to win loses as much or more than it wins. In this case, the numbers lie and we have to go with blind emotion.

Should have clarified. Was talking about non-VT games. Duke v FSU, etc, etc

Fun halftime facts:
Most number of Juco's signed was Pac-12, then SEC. Last was ACC.

i like that last part...especially since everyone around here is freaking out about us going over our limit this year

So why does the Verizon rocker dude stop playing air guitar looking at his fretting hand with a confused look?
Anyone?

FSU's spirit commercial...lol...academic excellence...haha..what a bunch of loosers

Onward and upward

If I were someone watching this game with no knowledge about what FSU taught Id think they were some kind of Mongol or native horde, seriously that commercial didn't teach me a thing about their school

Taylor, looking desperately throws it deep..HAS A MAN OPEN DANNY COALE WITH A CATCH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FIVE!!!!....hes still open

Couldn't be the Mongols you would think about. they never got their ass kicked like this

FSU is playing right into Auburns game plan. FSU needs to establish the run, setup play action, and give Winston throws that are less contested. Defensively, they need to bring more pressure, and get Auburns offense off the field.

If it ain't orange, it better be maroon...and if it ain't maroon, it better be soon!

" This is ACC football".......(lack of VT footage is unintentional and does not necessarily represent the views of the conference, kinda)

Sigh.... Hope the defense contains Auburn better in this half.

POUND THE ROCK!!!!!

Onward and upward

Auburn has been winning the field position game.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Florida State desperately needs to get some points right here.

I can't help but imagine a little kids voice in my head whenever I see winston's mouth moving...

Onward and upward

Good catch by Benjamin.

One of these, FSU is gonna get that ball in punts.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

SU is not tackling.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Auburn is the luckiest darn team to see the field since Michigan in the Sugar Bowl.

Joyner made a great tackle.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Yeah, geez.
6th time starting inside their own 10.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Nice run for 1st down to the 30.
Nice Oline work. Keep it up.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

So auburn is good on punt coverage but not very good on returns

Is it just me or is there really no great great team this year in CFB. I just don't see either of these teams as that great

FSU is, but for some reason, Fisher wants to lean on a 19 year old kid and completely neglect the boatload of NFL talent that resides in his RB meeting room.

Hey, he was 19 yesterday, now he's 20 so that totally doesn't apply anymore /sarcastica and a turkey leg for my agreement with you.

I'm terribly sorry. I have dishonored my family.

Hey, the guy caught the ball AND the only start on their own 25.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Brent Musburger is the most insufferable commentator I have ever listened to. He has NO clue what he is talking about and every year, listening to him laud players who he may well have never laid eyes on before, makes me want to claw my eyes out and jam a knife into both of my ears. Whenever I hear that he's calling a VT game it makes me cry on the inside....and then I punch somebody in the face. To me, he is the embodiment of the ESPN hype machine.

"How you doin', Randy?"

I think that CBS crew at the Sun Bowl would contend for that title

Yeah. That is true. But at least CBS knew those guys were horrible. ESPN is putting this asshat on the biggest game of the year on purpose - which shows a severe lack of judgement. He must 'test' well with the ignorant.

"How you doin', Randy?"

Reminds me of the cable TV commercial.
When you listen to Mustbooger you get mad.
When you get mad, you claw your eyes out, jam a knife in your ears and punch someone in the face.
When you claw your eyes out, you end up having sex with ugly women in loud places.
Don't have sex with ugly girls in loud places, don't listen to Brent.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

That was huge! Yes!

Wooooo!

What a bad penalty, took them completely out of going for 2 to tie. Now how big does wasting that last minute of the first half loom Jimbo?

Well, that penalty really hurt things.

Ok I get that fsu has momentum but do they have to play their damn fight song after every fricken play.

Turnover? Please?

The QB is good at faking the handoff.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Fisher, now would be a great time to lean on your NFL-quality running backs and excellent offensive line. You have plenty of time. Do not ask Winston to carry this team all the way down the field.

SUCK IT SEC.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

Oh snap.

OH MY GOSH YES YES YES YES!

With that return though Auburn now controls its fate instead of burning clock. Shit just got interesting.

Rob Peterson

Bad news for FSU: that gassed defense has to go right back out there and Auburn has plenty of time to run their full offense.

Too bad their defense is gassed. Come on FSU!

"Exit light..."

If FSU wins I full expect the crowd to begin an ACC chant. Just because. I hope the defense comes out playing hard!

This is going to be a great finish.

I bet Red Lightning is real excited after that one

Auburn needs a TD.

Did he actually blow his assignment? (Real question not sarcastica) cus if he did I'm gonna let him know about it cus he lives down the street from me and his brother is my age

Only do that if they lose. And he's not significantly bigger than him. And you have him outnumbered at least 4-1.

Mustbooger actually gave us some decent stats to chew on.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Ugh, missed tackles!

Yeah that was awful, probably saved Auburn a timeout right there by letting that guy slip out of bounds.

OK, Mr. Heisman...

With 130 on the clock brentburger claims that Auburn is "not quite yet out of miracles". Fucking eh man. THIS IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.

Seriously though, Auburn has come a long way this season. This team struggled with Tennessee and they aren't giving FSU an inch.

If only I wasn't forced to loathe the arrogant fucks who elevate the SEC to mythology I could compliment an SEC team without throwing up in my mouth.

"How you doin', Randy?"

I also like how they were still plugging how it was the best season for the SEC in the BCS era right before the final play. Fuck you ESPN and your SEC bias!

I thought the same thing. ESPN isnt going to know what to do with themselves now that SEC has lost the NC. And to the ACC of all conferences!

Well ESPN still can't seem to stop talking about the SEC "Jimbo Fisher modeled his Seminoles after the SEC and it paid off"

Sean

Idk who called it but I heard the ACC Chant

God, they just tried to pin this win on Jimbo being an assistant to Nick Saban at LSU... Can't they just admit that an ACC team ended the SEC's slightly rigged MNC streak?

I'd upvote you if I could, friend.

F U Messberger. Jimbo Fisher modeled his team on what he needed to win games with his coaches, not modeled on your circlejerk buddies the SEC. Don't belittle what FSU did by claiming it was all because of what the SEC did. You know damn well they were hoping that last graphic there would be to show eight straight SEC titles rather then ACC at the end.

"The ACC is a dadgum good football conference." - Jimbo Fisher

BCS records this year. ACC 2-0. SEC 0-2

VT CEE Class of 2016/2017

5 years, 2 degrees, 33 football games as a student, and 2 Cassell court stormings later, I bleed Maroon and Orange

I just had a person write on Facebook (who likes Tennessee) "Sorry VT fans, the accomplishments of FSU does not reflect the conference"...

Are you kidding me? The SEC was 0-2 in bowl games and the ACC was 2-0. I'm not saying that the ACC is a better conference because ANYONE could look at statistics, size of players, recruits but over-looking our conference NEEDS to stop. In the end I think that the HEART of a team is what matters most. I think we've proved that. All of us. Florida State, Clemson, Duke, Virginia Tech, Miami... We're all capable of winning games with heart. I'm not pulling for the ACC because I'm a Hokie, I'm pulling for the ACC because you know there's heart and that they're capable of finally showing that that can win games too.

Let FSU and the ACC enjoy this moment because I'm sure you'd be enjoying it on facebook/twitter just as much if the SEC had won.

But... (s)he was doing the same thing for the SEC?

They're hypocrites I tell you. Have fun in Bristol in 2016. I'll need therapy afterwards.

It's a disturbingly well known fact that Tennessee fans have wet dreams about Peyton Manning and his forehead.

While I don't disagree with you regarding SEC fans being the utmost homers, the ACC won the big ones, but we still went 4-7 as a conference this year in bowls and the SEC went 7-3. The biggest one counts the most, and Clemson closed out theirs strong but our only other wins came from the newest members of the conference in Syracuse and Pitt. Pretty painful as a conference, but I will take slaying the SEC and a NC for the conference with that record every year.

Actually, we went 5-6, North Carolina dominated Cincinnati (yeah, not the greatest argument). And also remember while losing, Duke hung 48 on aTm, and was leading up until the final 4-5 minutes. So I feel like the conference did a little better than its record suggests.

I meant to say BCS bowls. I always leave put important words while typing long things.

Saban is trying so hard to bite his SEC tongue

I just finished the game on the DVR, that shit was epic but I forgot to extend the record time so it ended 30 seconds after the winning touchdown. After every FSU TD I screamed touchdown ACC I hate FSU but it was awesome to see them slay the SEC and break the streak. GO HOKIES! GO ACC! 2016 cant get here soon enough.

So the two most dominant conferences (sec pac12) combined for a whopping 0 Bcs victories.... Seems legit

Onward and upward

Hold on. Do you realize that JW did something MV7 never did!? How does that make you feel now? I for one am absolutely pissed.

All I want to add to this was I was watching from a bar in Alabama that happened to be where an auburn booster club was watching. It was packed, but for some reason it got very quiet at the end of the game.

I would have cheered, but I wanted to get out alive. It was still glorious.

There's always a lighthouse. There's always a man. There's always a city.
