I'll take a coachless, injury depleted, 6-6 yet still very tough FSU program over the MAC, Sun Belt or even Mountain West team any day of the week. FSU has an elite football program that quite frankly Jimbo Fisher milked every penny out of that he could, but underachieved more often than not. When FSU announced their interim coach Saturday, the crowd cheered like a weight was lifted off their shoulders.
There was a feeding frenzy to get this game, and for once USM didn't end up on the short end of the stick.
