00:00All right. I teed it up. Another Florida State drop on Saturday at home. Memphis wins outright 20-12 as a 6.5 point underdog. For the second time in the last four seasons, FSU has started 0-3. Donnie Rightside, the time is yours.
00:22Now look, we could all sit up here and say Donnie was right. And yes, you would be saying I was right at this point. I don't even like, here's the funny part about it, Ben, is I feel like I'm going to be able to get to do this every single Monday we come on the air and we can laugh at Florida State.
00:34But you saw the cracks in the foundation. Always love to use that tagline. But there are that. When Florida State hired Mike Norvell, you thought you were getting an offensive guru from Memphis. Didn't start out all that well. Jordan Travis was a wonderful quarterback and they did play some good football.
00:48But the vibes for me started to go against Mike Norvell was late last season. Yes, they won an ACC championship here. But let's take you through what happened after that. And you could say they were wrong. I wish the 12-team playoff was in last year. I would have no problems, Ben, getting Florida State in that top 12.
01:03So you know what? You earned your right into it. You won the ACC automatic bid. Even though we know you're going to get smashed round number one, you still deserve that play for that championship. But the fact we only had four teams get in, everybody knew outside of Tallahassee that Florida State absolutely stunk as a football team without their starting quarterback.
01:19It was apparent they weren't going to do anything in the college football playoff. But here's a chance that you have to make it right with your university and show that team leadership here. You saw it with Georgia. They got beat in the ACC championship game. Did Kirby Smart say, I hate this. The rules are so unfair. I can't beat this football team. Hey, everybody, you can leave campus. Don't ever come back. No.
01:40They showed up in the Orange Bowl, and they smashed the hell out of Florida State, sending the college football playoff like, you should have kept us in. We would have won a championship. But we are a good football team with a strong foundation. Watch us go into next year. Now we're going to make it right. Florida State gave up and got hammered. One of the worst bowl beatings you're ever going to see and never recovered because you can't sell your locker room back.
02:01What was Mike Norvell actually telling that football team that before the season, those first three games, it's OK to quit on your university. You got wrong. The world is it's an unsafe place out there. You better get out into it now because we can't win any more games here. It's embarrassing what happened. Here's my favorite part. They open up 0 and 3, which I think is hilarious. They went out and got D.J. Uyungle who flat out can't play, and they don't even have a backup quarterback because the Rata makers of the world said, you know what, this is a losing team. I'm even getting out of here at this point. But hear me out on this.
02:31Florida State owed sixty five million dollars. He's the biggest winner. Florida State's not going to be able to pay him out. So whether or not they go, I don't know, two and nine or how many game two and ten the rest of the way here, he's still going to be your football coach at this point. You made your bed. You got to lay into it. One of the more embarrassing institutions over the past six months. It's Florida State. There is absolutely zero culture in that locker room. And it starts with their head coach, who's a straight up loser.
03:01And it starts with their head coach, who's a straight up loser.
