Disturbingly Random and Violently Meaningless Thoughts
Posted by BillFromTampa
1. Obviously the FSU offense liked its diet of Rice yesterday. Memo to
Dave Hart: Dont suppose we can have that on the training table every
year can we?
2. So thats what a first half offensive touchdown looks like. Most FSU
fans I think had forgotten.
3. Lets see, Texas beat Rice 52-7 last week and FSU beat Rice 55-7
yesterday. Therefore FSUs much maligned offense has to better than
Texas offense right? Bring on the Longhorns!!
4. You had to know Rice had a lack of offensive weapons when Gene
Deckerhoff emphasized in his pre-game analysis that Rice has a pretty
good punter.
5. And also from Deckerhoffs pre-game analysis: The trombone section
is doing The Flush where they circle the logo at midfield. Trombone
section? For those who would like to contribute to send Gene to band
camp next summer so he can learn the difference between a trombone and
a tuba please send your check to Â….
6. A succinct descriptive analysis of Rices lone touchdown came from
PT Willis when he moaned Oh no before Rice even completed the pass
adding something about being able to punt it to him he so wide open.
7. On Caz Puirowskis picking up the loose ball off the blocked PAT and
taking it in for the two point conversion Deckerhoff commented I
didnt know you could do that. Fortunately Caz did. His father Paul
taught him well.
8. With Xavier Lee in as QB and FSU in the redzone, Lorenzo Bookers
run on 3rd and 13 drew this from Willis. I didnt like that call.
From the chorus boos heard coming from the stands apparently neither
did the crowd.
9. Sign seen at ESPNs Gameday show in Columbus Ohio: JoPas been dead
for years which Im sure came as a HUUUUUGE surprise to Joe. Maybe
thats why Joe was sick to his stomach headed to the locker room (which
was thoroughly and exhaustingly covered by the TV crew) after learning
that.

10. After his team gave up 19 fourth quarter points blowing a lead and
the game heres a question to Michigan State head coach John L. Smith,
was that your coaches screwing it up again for the players?
11. From the inane sideline reporter question department: Asked at the
half Are we going to see more of the no huddle in the second half?
Notre Dame head coach managed to avoid laughing out loud and responded
Well, were down 17 points.
12. In responding to Erin Andrews halftime question about not throwing
the ball to Calvin Johnson, Chan Gailey said Were just using our game
plan. I think were going to change the plan for the 2nd half. With
touchdown catches of 66 and 68 yards for Johnson, its a pretty good
guess that Virginia wished Georgia Tech hadnt made that change.
13. Headline in the news today: UNC AD committed to Bunting despite
teams struggles. Said another way, John get your resume ready.
13. Congratulations to the Duke Blue Devils for not losing yesterday.
Of course they didnt play either but thats beside the point.
14. After losing the Ryder Cup yet again, it is obvious that the US
needs a national team that plays together all year round, plays
international competition throughout the year, and match play only so
it can get used to international rules such as the twelve panel golf
ball and the trapezoid fairway.
