and it is those throws off the back foot. A lot of those back-foot throws which he can get there due to pure arm strength in college would be picks in the NFL.

True, but we know an NFL QB with two rings that has the same bad habit.
Not sure why the slow starts week after week, but this team is not what it was last year. They'll likely get in the playoff but it will be hard for them to win back to back against whatever SEC teams they will be playing.
IMO, mostly every top team in college sports is "dirty" in some way, shape or form. Are some worse than others? I'm sure, but it's not going to stop any of us from rooting the team on.

And yes, Winston is an immature punk.
Jimbo's defense, and that of prominent members of his fan base, went over and above. And the fact that as much of a piece of shit as Jameis has been over the last couple years he has yet to face meaningful disciplinary consequences (when Gurley sat out games because of investigation into minor misconduct - the same misconduct Winston is alleged to have done) is the reason why FSU is making a bid of that pantheon of despised programs.
will overlook a lot more for their star players then will teams that are not in the hunt. I think that is one reason you see the teams at the top of the standings always in the spotlight more than others. One is that it is a better story, but then there is also a tendency to err on the side of skipping punishment so you don't jeopardize a potential championship.
To some degree all of the programs look the other way when their star players are in trouble - they all suspend the marginal players. I think it just becomes more pronounced when you are at the top of the polls and keeping a kid playing when he shoudln't be can be all the difference in a season and a career.
WGAF. The issue is it's that plus the pellet gun plus the rape allegations (and the appearance that much was done to prevent those allegations from ever being brought to court).

I agree to an extent. I'm a Miami fan. They have a history of outright criminals playing on the team, paying players, etc... and it being alright to fans, coaches, etc...
Now would I defend or cheer for a player I suspected of raping a girl or shooting people with a pellet gun? I don't think so, but who knows. I've probably cheered for players who have done much worse knowingly or ignorantly. No one is reporting the shit The U players are doing this year because they are irrelevant not because they are now a boyscout clean-cut program.
I'm sure almost every program has serious issues. I even read an article yesterday talking about a current player for Alabama beating a guy so bad he thought he had killed the guy (who now dropped out) only being "suspended" for a year. But who cares, he isn't the QB on the national champs. It's not newsworthy.
at some point, CFB has become an all out race to win. No matter the cost in dollars, time or ruined human lives.
It has to be cleaned up.
It has been this way since the 70's at least. It won't get cleaned up until these players get some just compensation and I don't mean pay. They should get a weekly allowance and special all you can eat food plans at the least. It won't get cleaned up until properly qualified students fill the rosters.
I think the NCAA is a joke. Want to keep the agents out - simple. Have the convicted agent's license revoked for illegal contact with players, don't squeeze the student - squeeze the agent. They lose their license, then they lose all the players under their contract. That will end that.
It's about the money the schools make not just off the players but off their alumni.
ESPN now has more control and influence then the NCAA does.
Come on Vin, take the heat.
Well ESPN would do a better job than the NCAA, but the NCAA still rules the roost.
All schools make money off alumni, and not just sports. My problem with the NCAA is the inconsistent enforcement of any and all rules; plus the chickens$#t rules.
FSU doesn't look great, and Louisville still loses, which eliminates Louisville as a quality win down the road.
Louisville played as well as they could. FSU just has better talent and they do this 1st half absence every week.
There just is not a dominant team this year. Not sure about Miss St., either.
True, but we know an NFL QB with two rings that has the same bad habit.
Louisville actually stopped them on 4th down at midfield that next drive, so it wasn't a big deal.
Not recovering the fumble right before half is what cost Louisville. 21-0 there going into half and i doubt they blow it
That's a lot of stadium stairs.

You're a Miami fan, correct?
At least (this year anyway) Miami kicks its alleged rapists off the team.
