Good LDW, very relaxing. DC weather was soggy, but a nice break from the norm.
Enjoyed watching FSU/Miami last night, always a good game, with two teams that seem to be a step faster than the rest of college football at the beginning of September. Never been a fan of the 'Canes, so no complaints with two straight FSU wins.
Seeing the aggressiveness and youth of the FSU defense, they look like title contenders for 2007/8, possibly this year (although currently 10:1 is somewhat overrated, should be @ 20:1). The majority of the guys they had flying around the field are newcomers. Geno Hayes - RS F, Michael Ray Garvin - RS F, Myron Rolle, TF. On the offensive side, Antone Smith (RB) - RS F. Weatherford has a year at the helm under his belt, and the highly talented Lorenzo Booker can deliver six on most plays, with a decent blocking package. The FSU defense is nasty, I don't see them being overly challenged, and can get away with a ball-control offense.

I can't get a handle on those two teams now. Both quaterbacks looked awful - period! It seems that if any pressure was put on the QB, they'd make an errant throw or run for a 1 yard gain.
It's really hard to translate that game - two awesome defenses harassing the opposing offense - and make judgements for teh rest of the year. Will FSU look as bad when they go up against Md, or will Weatherford throw for 5 TDs? I can't answer that solely looking at the game Monday night.
