Week 1 College Football Thread: Seven Years of College Station Down the Drain

[2muchcoffeeman]

What's with all these teams with maroon and gold colors changing to dull rusty brownish red and dirty dull matte gold? It was apparent with USC yesterday and FSU tonight.

To its credit BC has apparently resisted this trend.

I've heard people suggest it may have something to do with the color mix of LED lighting becoming more common -- the lighting has more blue/greenish tinting so red uniforms look somewhat duller on teevee screens.

The changes imposed by Nike on Florida State continue to be ass.

Meanwhile, there's a Band Of Brothers marathon on AMC.

Lose to Georgia Tech and BC. Could there be worse losses in the ACC?

Jane Lane : By the way, anything eating away at your soul?

Daria Morgendorffer : Her writing is BAD. Don't people know the difference between good and bad?

Both of those teams are notorious pains in the ass. But I'm not hating FSU being in worse shape than VT right now.

These forking stone hand FSU receivers haven't helped any.

They should dump a bucket of Gold Bond on Bill O'Brien to celebrate.

In 2001, Temple football was so shirtty and so poorly supported that they were kicked out of the Big East.

Maybe that's FSU's strategy.

After LSU fired Ed Orgeron, Billy Napier was a popular option among the fan base who saw him as an up-and-comer from right down the road in Lafayette.
Brian Kelly hasn't taken them to the highest of highs yet, but I've gotta say that was a dodged bullet. Napier might as well start wearing a red Star Trek shirt to every press conference and game.

Great reference.

This is amazing. And magnificent.

Look. There's no way FSU can compete with a powerhouse like BC given the ACC's insufficient financial resources.

I'm imagining all the stories about what a mess FSU is. Top 10 ranking and losing to the bottom of the ACC.
