I think this is a massive line move against Florida State that I just can't pass up. Everyone is on Virginia after they popped into the Top 25, and this team in my opinion is being over rated just a bit. Their offense did not look great in week 1 at PItt, with just 310 yards, and they largely benefited from +2 TO margin. Last week they turned the ball over 4 times against William & Mary. Maybe, FSU's head coach Willie Taggart is just that bad, but I know for sure he has the better talent.
It just seems like Florida State's biggest issue right now is conditioning, and the weather has not helped them in the first two weeks. Not to mention the fact that their defense has been on the field for 97 plays per game. The good news is this is a night game in Virginia with the temperature expected to be in the 70's. They also face an opponent that does not play an up-tempo offense. Virginia only averaged 67 plays per game a year ago.
FSU also hired JIm Leavitt, a defensive guru as a consultant this week. He was already at practice Thursday and reviewing film. It's a short window, but with all the talent FSU has on defense it could be a small fix. I think the weather, and travel spot will benefit this team.
