Welcome to Florida State Seminoles Football

2007 Season Archive 

• Sept 3 @ Clemson. L 24-18 0-1
  The first half was unwatchable. I almost gave up... almost! I hung in until the bitter end when I was disappointed at myself for not changing shirts earlier in the evening. Now I have to burn my gray FSU Football t-shirt. Damn. One and done... we dropped out of the top 25.
• Sept. 8 UAB TALLAHASSEE W 34-24 1-1
  I don't have ESPNU and didn't see this game.. .thank god - reading the summary I think watching would have given me a coronary. Barely able to beat UAB, trailing 17-0 at the half. And as a bonus, we lost our starting tailback. Nice. A win is a win though.
• Sept. 15 at Colorado Boulder, CO W 16-6 2-1
  The most ridiculous demonstration of football I've been around in my life." Jumbo Fisher's quote just about says everything you need to know. The Defense almost threw a shutout. My motto for the 2007 season: "A Win is a Win"
• Sept. 29 vs. Alabama Jacksonville, FL W 21-14
  In what will either go down as Xavier Lee's coming out party or yet another installment of the Wally Pipp story, the 'Noles got it done in a big way. An interesting side note is that there were more fans in attendance than the 2004 super bowl and any Georgia-Florida game... so we've already beaten the Gators this year.
• Oct. 6 NC State TALLAHASSEE W 24-10
  Sadly, I didn't see this game and was "watching" online with Yahoo gametracker.
• Oct. 11 at Wake Forest Winston-Salem, NC L 24-21
  I didn't even know the game was going on - I am officially not a true fan. Obviously. At least it wasn't 31-0 again.
• Oct. 20 MIAMI TALLAHASSEE L
  What happened? Weren't we winning at half-time? How fricken lame is it that the FSU/Miami game wasn't even on TV - not even ESPN2. I can't live like this.
• Oct. 27 DUKE TALLAHASSEE W 25-6
  There was a time, in a galaxy far, far away when the Noles would beat teams like Duke 73-3. Not this decade. But a win is a win. BC up next....
• Nov. 3 at Boston College Chestnut Hill, MA W 27-17
  Did you see it? I saw it - I saw old school Seminole football peek it's head though the curtains. I knew something was different early when the 'Nole offense pulled off a double reverse/flea flicker. Now that was fun. Va Tech on deck...
• Nov. 10 at Virginia Tech Blacksburg, VA L 41-20
  Outscored 20-0 in the 4th quarter pretty much says it all. Why is it that their freshman QB gets it done, and ours didn't? I'm not impressed with the quote from Saint Bobby... "I didn't expect to see the second coming of Vick" - ummm, where to start with that one.
• Nov. 17 MARYLAND TALLAHASSEE W 24-16
  Bobby's 300th win as he also clinched is 31st winning season in a row. That certainly puts some things into perspective! Now, a thanksgiving win against the Gators and all will be well in Seminole Territory.
• Nov. 24 at Florida Gainesville, FL : 45-12
  WAIT A DADGUM minute here! I thought that the game was officially over and you automatically win when you kick a field goal of 60 yards or longer... isn't that a rule? Please?
• Bowl Game vs. Kentucky minus 25 (umm, 36) players. L
  I was shocked and happy that the 'Noles played as well as they did against Kentucky. Playing 36 men down, I figured it would be a blow out like everyone else watching. They almost pulled it off.

Emerald Bowl Champions!

• Sept 4 Miami @ Miami W (1-0)
  Rushing for 5 yards won't get it done this year.. but a win is a win.. AND WE'LL TAKE IT! Ignore Corso's predictions - he's better when he's acting like a homer and rooting for the 'Noles.
• Sept 9 Troy @ Home W (2-0)
  Close call - why is it that elite teams have troubles with unknowns? Is it arrogance? I'm taking the Win on this one either way!
• Sept 16 Clemson @ Home L (2-1) - What a horrendous game. Even so, they had a chance to win at the end..but surprise, surprise, gave up a big play! Getting caught so off guard in a pressure situation isn't all that acceptable for a top 10 team.. OH YEA - they aren't a top 10 team anymore!
• Sept 23 Rice @ Home W (3-1) - And I quote... "It's not like it was Notre Dame out there"
• Oct 5 NC State @ Raleigh L (3-2) - Chuck Amato must have the Semionles playbook. Wait, that's not fair - maybe the 'Noles just stink this year! 2 losses, both with my jersey on - I may have to burn it.
• Oct 14 Duke @ Durham W (4-2) - The best thing about beating Duke on this day was Florida losing to Auburn :) It's nice to see that the 'Noles can beat up on Duke and Rice. Let's schedule more of those.
• Oct 21 Boston College @ Home L (4-3) Horrible loss, sitting in a sports bar in San Fran watching helplessly with no available 'Nole gear to put on or take off. Cool black jerseys. Remember that year, when the 'Noles had a losing record but black shirts. Yea, that sucked.
• Oct 28 Maryland @ College Park L (4-4) The good thing about being 4-4 is that it is perfectly symmetrical. It's gotten so bad that even wide right would have been an improvement over a blocked field goal kick.
• Nov 4 Virginia @ Home W (5-4). Xavier Lee's day, the Noles rolled old school style 33-0. I was on a plane flying back from Dallas and haven't even seen highlights.
• Nov 11 Wake Forest @ Home L (5-5). This game got so bad that ABC stopped showing it. Not sure what to say about how terrible they looked tonight. I even bought a new 'Nole football t-shirt for the game tonight.
• Nov 18 Western Michigan @ Home - W (6-5). Bowl eligible, skippidy doo da! Gettin ready for a Gator upset special.
• Nov 25 Florida @ Home L (6-6). Bobby almost pulled it off - the kick off return that wasn't could have been the play of the year. This game was 20 points closer than it should have been - the defense played an amazing game against a very good team. A Gator team that has no shot at playing for a national championship :) (small salvation).
• Dec 27 The Emerald Bowl - Win! Where do I start.. where the hell has Booker been all my life. Why did it take all season for Jeff to throw to Carr? Who in the world thought playing a bowl game on a baseball field was a good idea? We Win! Great way to wrap up an ugly season.
