Ya'll know the routine.
I almost forgot for this season.

Ole Miss and Iowa State seem to be in trouble.
Memphis is a 4 pt fav.
ISU is a 23.5 fav. Oh my! FCS UNI up 3 with under 10 to play.
I’m still flabbergasted at how Willie Taggart gets plum jobs. He must be the best salesman.

How did FSU get this bad this quickly?

1:22 PM - 31 Aug 2019Boise State allowed 68 yards, four first downs and no points in the second half. Hats off to Jeff Schmedding and the defensive coaches. Unbelievable turnaround in the second half.
Florida State game moved from Jacksonville to their home stadium, Doak Campbell, in Tallahassee. Announced attendance is 50k in a 79.5k capacity.

They refunded the money for the Jaguars stadium tickets and had a $10 general admission for the game in Tallahassee and STILL only filled two-thirds of the stadium.
Hello, Dorian???
FSU draws fans from throughout the state and about half the state is preparing for a Cat 4 Hurricane. Folks have left the state, are lined up at gas stations, grocery stores, nailing up sheets, and filling sandbags. And they changed venues and starting time in short notice. Did the RV/Tailgate crowd that was already in JAX relocate to Tallahassee with 140 mph winds to the rear or did they head home to family and pets? All those people that made it to the game still have to get home in traffic with people fleeing the state and gas in short supply.
And that's on top of the Taggart/Fisher controversy.
I'm thinking more about the local fan that doesn't usually go that can now get in for $10. Notre Dame-NC State was a sellout during the hurricane at inflated prices.

I watched the ND/NCS game and recall the rain, lots of rain, tough day to run a passing attack but I don't recall the announcers discussing the declared state of emergency, people boarding up and evacuating, nor the Weather Channel and networks showing motorists fleeing the state, massive gas lines, police escorting gas tankers to replenish exhausted supplies, empty store shelves, and people filling sandbags. Dorian's track has moved from 10 miles inland to 10 miles or so but it's still impacting millions of Floridians. It would have impacted attendance in Miami, Gainsville, or Orlando.
And as I noted there's also the Taggart/Fisher controversy. Willie had lost 7 of 12 prior to today. That probably impacted local fans that could have been walk-ups but were accustomed to their couch, their bathroom, their beer, instant replay, and the ability to turn off the game as the Noles faded in the 2nd half.
