FSU , people sleeping on em. This guy can sling it, O-Line has been the biggest issue, if they fix that they'll compete for the ACC.

[@regalminyard]

Still underrated. FSU will flourish this season.

[@dirtycee6887]

He stunk against Virginia Tech! Very disappointed that Taggert didn't go to Blackmon. If he plays like this all season, FSU goes 6-6 and plays in the Shit Bowl sponsored by Tidy Bowl and Clarks Toilet paper......

[@AizawaSan]

you are an idiot

[@cliftonmcknight4659]

Too bad his head wasn't in the games that season.😡😡😡 No leadership or outspoken personality

[@TC-uy8ng]

No disrespect to Blackman, but If Deondre hadn't went down last year it could have been much different - instead of the train wreck season it was. Hopefully this year things get back on track.

[@TC-uy8ng]

Unfortunately, I agree. I was all hyped up about this season. That was just pathetic. No other was to say it.

Bet he's happy Alabama isn't on his schedule...

[@Nastyfinger1444]

Pretty sure Alabama is happy that Clemson and Ohio State are not on their schedule instead of Arkansas State and The Citadel.

[@joeythornton4405]

IAmaPersion It will be close, I hope not need a blow out to build our confidence. I just can't believe we can not fix Our Offense! Been a Nole since 87 and maybe seeing Coach Bowden on the field gave me flash backs to Our Hay Days! All I know is Coach Taggart better fix it quickly or I am afraid TRUE SEMINOLE OR NOT He won't be around as long as I hope he CAN DO! #DOSOMETHINGOFFENSE! GO NOLES

[@joeythornton4405]

IAmaPersion Couldn't agree with you more! Defense was suspect on first drive, but my Gosh what a difference those guys Passion they play with! Just got to get the Offense going! I would run Offense like Ward , Weinke and not to forget Winston Did! Deondre has the capabilities of being those Guy's ....but he needs that Offensive Mindset to put in a play book and quit all this that we seen last night! Lethal Simplicity was Weak Simplicity!

[@joeythornton4405]

IAmaPersion They flashed last night but all this throwing and pitching the ball behind the line don't get it! Hell maybe Bailey Hockman sent Bud Foster Our play book seems awfully fishy they knew what we were gonna do on every play

Look like it was intentional!😱🤔
