I actually like the Noles, but I wouldn't say they are "that good and that deep." They are a worse version of the Paper Tiger Seminoles that went to the CFP in 2014 with Jameis Winston and got blasted by Oregon.

Norvell is ahead of schedule but I don't think the program is yet at a point where it can avoid humiliating defeats against superior opponents.

Believe what you want, that was not a "Paper Tiger" Seminoles team. Score was 24-20 in the 3rd and FSU was driving to take the lead. They had moved to midfield when Cook had the 1st fumble. Oregon scored to make it 31-20. FSU was driving again and another Cook fumble. Oregon scored again, 38-20. Call me a homer, but that game was closer than thought. But ok.

And we would not be humiliated. I said before, we were supposed to be humbled twice by LSU. And neither time were we.

Play the game, kick the crap out of UGA and show the committee how stupid they were.
Basically, if they beat Georgia, the bowl selection committee will have egg on their faces. You know damn well they are hoping that FSU gets destroyed.

I hope the Noles win and win big

I heard they're 14 point dogs in Vegas, why don't you put your money up?

What difference does that make to you? Maybe you should put your money up if you feel so sure they'll cover.

It makes no difference to me at all.

But it's interesting the rest of the world thinks they will lose.

Well you probably shouldn't have made that comment then. Oddsmakers had Jacksonville winning by 10 last night. They also had Alabama favored by 7 versus Texas. It's why they play the game.
