Outside of the early Jimbo years from his time as OC-2015 FSU has pretty much always had mediocre to down right bad Oline play since 2006. I go back to then because I remember FSU’s biggest issue was outside of mediocre QB play before Ponder they couldn’t run the ball efficiently despite having talented backs. Even in the 22-23 seasons I would call them average? Benson & Travis made a lot of plays out of nothing, and I honestly think the Oline played a big part in the 23 team having a lot of name the score blowouts.

My question is simply why doesn’t FSU get dominant offensive lines? Is it simply the program doesn’t emphasize it, as I mentioned this problem has spanned 4 coaches now. Is it coaching? I see our peers in the region UGA, Bama, our rivals even when they’re bat they can at least keep the QB standing and have a decent run game.

It'd be local to Tallahassee, but they could do masks of Mike Norvell, instead of Mike Myers, and sell like hotcakes. It'd be a scary Halloween - every FSU fan would recoil in terror, "no, not you, your bag of candy's gonna break and all my lights are gonna explode" - but Spirit could fund St Jude's quite a bit.

(And now that I think of it, every house that was visited with a Norvell mask would somehow run for 200 yards over their normal average. Just think of it: a kid wearing a Norvell mask walks by a broken-down car, and all of a sudden it springs to life and rolls 300 yards uphill, until the kid gets out of range and it breaks down again, popping all four tires in the process. Man, being an FSU fan right now is fun.)
