Canes over rated?

Recommended Posts

Teamprimos is obviously campaigning for his OSU to jump over the Canes in the polls. It does not matter - most, if not all, the top 10 teams will have a loss before their bowl games. Only 2 made it last year, and it seems like it gets tougher each year to go unbeaten.

 

Again, why do we have polls before the end of the rgualr season?? (And yes, I am a bitter USC fan...)

teamprimos:

yes they are as is every other florida team, now with that close victory will they drop in polls?

that interference call against wvu at the end of the game was a joke.

 

 

coxxy rules go buckeyes!

I laugh at a Buckeye fan calling the 'Canes over rated. I mean, have you watched your Buckeye's games this year? lol

 

But as to the question, are the 'canes over rated? Most certainly, YES. This is a very young squad who lost over 10 starters on offense and defense (most to the NFL by the way) and are still trying to feel their way around the field as a team. They certainly are not the 2nd best team in the country. I kinda had them penciled in for a 9-2 record and hopefully a major bowl bid with a good shot at another National Championship next year. Now with Gore gone, it will be very hard to get that offense in gear. With FSU, VaTech, and Tenn comming up in the next few weeks, the pressure will be on the young 'Canes to perform and I don't see them winning at FSU and at VaTech.

 

And please, you don't have any room to squak about bad calls at the end of games.

only mention this because osu has had close games and win and still drop in polls. last year was no difference and we won the title.

 

osu football is not pretty but very good sound football. when osu wins by very little margin everyone on here is like osu lucked out again (true?) so just feeding back what we get!

Gotta believe a healthy Gore really changes the outcome of the WVU Game. Gore wears teams down and I think Canes probaly win by 14 or more with Gore. I think Canes do not drop and I love the Buckeyes but there is diffrences between this game and sdsu....not that it matters Ohio State is going to have to win out to get to the NC game I see PVT. Cryan has return... bawling ...boy do u have some built up agression..Miami going to have rough waters ahead anyway. FSU vs Miami..should be a good one. Fsu 28 Miami 17 coach

Speaking of overrated Florida teams ...

 

Ole Miss (3-1 coming in) beat Florida (3-2 coming in) and it's being reported as this huge upset?

 

Well Florida did win two of it's games by outrageous scores (65-3 and 63-3). Maybe that's what makes them so good?

I think the ranking of the Gators had more to do with the talent on the team, not how their playing. You just don't go from a SEC power to a doormat in 2 years. The talent level the Gators have is equal to or greater than many teams in the top ten. This leaves one major area of concern for how they are playing and that is coaching. The Ron Zook era is about to come to an end, and soon. This is a coach, who under Spurrier, was demoted from Def. to ST's. He is a joke and is ruining the Gator program.

 

I'm not a Gator fan, but I live in the heart of Gator country and have heard more insults and barbs directed at not only Zook but also at the AD who hired him. They are still one of the elite powers in college ball, their just playing like a bunch of lost kids. See ya Zook.

Nice post Canes and for those of you that think the Canes are overrated.... does it really mater? Judgement day will come next week when they play Free Shoes U and when the play Tenn. @ home, Pitt away, and VaTec away in the coming weeks. Just like the Luckeyes will be tested against Iowa, Big Blue, and Purdue.

I just want to point out that coming from a Cane - any cracks about Free Shoes U. (or Creminoles) are pretty ridiculous. FSU runs a relatively clean program (it's all relative) and Bobby actually has a pretty good track record of disciplining his players.

Hey its just a harmless crack at FSU just before the big game. I have much respect for Bobby and what he has done but the truth is the last couple of years things have been getting a little loose. UM was without a doubt the best team in the country before we got hit with sanctions and when we see other teams do simular acts we have every right to knock back, especially FSU after all the A$$kickin they gave us during that time. bottom line is every team does it! Now we are back to being the NFL's minnor league team. head_ban

Great comments...I do agree that when OSU last year and this year won a close game regardless of their competition they slide while Cane voters act like it was a bye week and nothing happened. It's a joke as most have mentioned having the polls...just gives us sport nuts something to cry about...The Marketing Machine is working...

 

At the end it'll be OSU again & all you saps can cry some more...BUCKEYES ROCK

Canatic - no offense taken

 

Dragon/anyone else - yeah, FSU's program is "relatively" clean, meaning in comparison with any other major program. If you don't think so - name some examples where FSU players got off or were just slapped on the wrist for serious infractions... Lots of schools have MUCH worse track records more serious offenders (assault & battery, sexual assault, cheating, point-shaving, taking money from boosters, etc.)

Overrated, underrated, who gives a ****?!?!?

 

A win's a win. A lose is lose. No matter how it happens. Good teams claw and scratch and fight for 4 quarters.

 

Did OSU win all of thier games last year? Yes.

Did Miami win all of thier games last year? No.

Has OSU won all of its games so far this year? Yes.

Has Miami won all of its games so far this year? Yes.

 

Wins and loses are ALL that matters. That being said, Miami and OSU both have HUGE tests this week. Let's just crack some cold ones and enjoy the action!

We will see the true test of "overrated" teams this weekend. I foresee both Miami and OSU getting beat this weekend. The Sooners will walk out of Dallas winning the Red River shoot-out yet again.

However, even with their losses, Miami and OSU will not fall out of the top 5. How does that happen? Guess I can't complain. As much as I dislike the Canes and Buckeyes, I dislike the Cornhuskers even more!
