Let's Be Fair

First I don't need to remind everyone how bad FSU played on Saturday. I mean it is only Tuesday and I think the hang over from the game is just now wearing off. Andrew Carter posted a blog today discussing what was said about the game from Fisher, Ponder and Andrews. For the most part I would have to agree with him. But he seems to place 100% of the blame on Fisher for FSU pathetic play on Saturday, an opinion I do not share with him. 

I think we need to make something clear here; if anything should get the blame it should fall 100% on the shoulders of our inexperienced OL. Give us the penalties, the turnovers and dead plays and we still would have won that game convincingly if our OL blocked better against Wake's experienced DL. 

Think about it we couldn't run the football effectively in that game making our team a very one dimensional team. A team with two QB's that have only truly played 2 games (if you want to call those games) this season and part of one game last season. This really played to Wake Forest's strength considering the type of DB's they have on their team. So I do not place any of the blame on the QB's or Jimbo Fisher, instead I place the blame on the OL and their inexperience.
