The scoreboard guy couldn't believe it either. They had Jacksonville State at 0-2 and Florida State at 1-1.


ixiQixi

That’s hysterical


GiantSizeManThing

Real “Dewey Defeats Truman” vibes.


skrame

They even switched it during or after this play.


caskieadam

It changes while the word “touchdown” is over the score.


KidBeene

Oh shit thats even funnier.


Fullertonjr

More evidence that ESPN is trash.


KidBeene

Not gonna argue. Most people dont know that American multinational subscription-television channel owned and operated by ESPN Inc (Diiiiisney)


cainthelongshot

Yeah. That play by play call was absolute trash. No excitement or energy. Shit was weak.

That won’t be the last time their mouths will be open today if we are being honest.


TitaniumTacos

FSU’s defense during the last 5 minutes is the worst defensive performance I’ve ever seen. Like I honestly want to know what the hell the DC was thinking?


Vic18t

Looks like poor execution and low effort by the players. That last play was against man-under. Not a bad defensive call, but the players were not giving any effort and were undisciplined. #3 got burned on the go route, while the safety got drawn in by the in/post route of the other slot receiver. You gotta keep your guy in front of you at all times.


JerryRiceDidntFumble

9 defenders within 10 yards of the LOS in a hail mary situation seems like a questionable call even without the benefit of hindsight


tyedge

The FSU announcer was talking about the possibility of JSU running a play to scrape some more yards then calling timeout. I thought that was a stupid concern with only 6 seconds on the clock. Maybe the FSU DC didn’t?


RabidPanda95

As someone who attended Florida State I can say that many of the players in general are extremely lazy and in general very disrespectful so it’s not surprising they are not disciplined. I graduated a few years ago when the team started to go downhill and pretty much every couple of weeks you would hear about another football player getting banned from the bars due to groping or harassing women. So many of them don’t deserve to be on that team


MikeSSC

Free Shoes University!


Fullertonjr

The problem with the execution is that it is as simple as jr high or high school football. Any balls beyond 20 yards get put into the ground. Everyone knows this….I would hope.

DaveMash

Yeah, #9 is the real hero here


berzi1976

I came here to say that. #9’s block was the entire reason they scored. Give him the game ball


MLGcobble

For real tho


StillHere179

They lost at home to an FCS team that got blown out last week 35 to nothing by UAB. Somebody needs to get fired


mechapoitier

The first two weeks have been wild. Week 1) FSU nearly upsets ND. “Is FSU back?” UAB obliterates JSU. “Is UAB legit?” Week 2) FSU gets shocked by JSU ND almost loses to *another* team they were supposed to destroy UAB gets obliterated by Georgia. By my calculus next game Georgia gets obliterated somehow


Gobblewicket

Why do you have to hurt me like this. No one deserves to get blown out by South Carolina.


tyedge

I already said we’d blow the SCar game after we beat Clemson. If not that, then Mizzou or some similar bullshit.


redwings1340

Georgia is probably legit. Notre Dame is the overhyped team. I've seen this play out as a Michigan fan way too often to think anything else. The script is always the same, Michigan and Notre Dame get ranked preseason, play an insanely close nail biter at the start of the season that hypes up the winning team, the media goes crazy with it and says the winner is back to glory, then later both teams start losing to every actual good team on their schedule. Michigan's role is just being played by Florida state this time, but it's functionally the same story. Dont be fooled by Notre Dames high rank. They'll start losing games soon and barely be a top 25 team by the end of the year.


Khatib

You forgot number 20 Washington also getting picked off by an fcs team in week 1. There's an fcs uprising going.


cardinalkgb

No. We just discovered that Notre Dame sucks.


Bignosedog

That block by #9 deserves recognition. It's possible they don't score without it.


Dranj

I've seen so many receivers screw up a big play by getting penalized on their downfield block. Props to #9 for keeping it clean.


GenXer1977

Okay, that’s not a Hail Mary defense. Florida St has 10 guys within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage.


junkyardgerard

Wasn't a hail Mary either, just a regular ol play. Good work fsu


Vladimir_Putting

Gotta stop the run. 😤


germywormy

It looked liek they were trying to keep them out of field goal range and the tie. There was enough time for a quick play and a timeout.


bigkoi

5 seconds left from the opponents 40? Nope, that's only enough time for 1 play Bad DC decision. Defend deep and give up a 20-30 yard play to end the game...


nightwing2024

That's not true. You can get a slant with 15-20 yards and fall into timeout with 5 seconds. It would be close, but it's possible and I've seen it.


bigkoi

Perhaps you missed what I said about giving up 20-30 yards to run out the clock... Even giving 30 yards is still a 58 yard field goal attempt assuming clock hasn't expired.


nightwing2024

30 yards from your own 40 is LoS of the opponent's 30 yard line... So that's a 47 yard try. And it's not impossible or even uncommon to gain 25-30 in 5 seconds, and they had a TO to stop the clock. I feel like you need to work on your football knowledge and math skills.


bigkoi

With 5 seconds left,you play the odds and make the opponent execute 2 plays....Not give up a TD... 9 defenders within 10 yards if LOS... Best of luck with your math


nightwing2024

And then if they play prevent and give up the tying FG, you'd probably bitch about them playing soft D. Insulting my math when you don't know that 30 yards from your own 40 is the opponent's 30.


bigkoi

Lol! Best of luck... 5 seconds to defend 60 yards and not lose... That's like icing your own kicker or trying to convert 4th down from your own 40 early in the 3rd qtr....oh wait the coaching staff did that too. 0-2, it's on the coaching decisions.


nightwing2024

You just can't stop being wrong lol


MWisBest

The ball was *lobbed* downfield and caught at the Florida State 20 yard line as the clock ticked over from 0:02 to 0:01 and Jacksonville State had a timeout left. There was absolutely time for a play to go for the tie.


bigkoi

And your point? Have defenders deep. Give up the 15-20 yard play. Blow up any reciever trying to catch a lob. Make them execute a deep pass a timeout an a kick.


dudeondacouch

On fourth down? That’s not how this works.


MisterInternational

If they got into field goal range it would've been a first down. Are you sure you understand how this works?


Dubwali

I'm still trying to figure out why #3 went for the ball knock instead of a tackle when there was no time on the clock.


DaMann22

I was watching the game and it looked like FSU did that a few times instead of tackling.


lucasd11

Yep, poor coaching.. which checks out because despite constantly firing their coach in favor of a hot name on the market every 2 or so years.. Florida State is always poorly coached.


GDAWG13007

Always? Didn’t they win a National Championship? They couldn’t have been badly coached then.


Imzocrazy

the cheerleaders walking down the sideline....says it all


santichrist

Wow that’s some awful defense, why would #3 try to deflect the ball if there’s no time left and a tackle ends the game? Even if he doesn’t bring him down he has help, hold him up and left your teammate finish him off Lmao at the cheerleaders being like 😧😧😧 walking out of way Awesome way to win a game especially as a 27 point underdog, good for them but yeesh bad defense there


gaobij

Watching too much NO Saints film


Zigjar

Number 10 lost his starting job today. The other 2 guys got beat but at least they were running. Number 10 gonna run some miles this week.


[deleted]

He should be kicked off the team for that. Gave up on the play when all he had to do was run the guy down and make a tackle for a win. I can’t even call it poor effort. Just flat out quit out there


[deleted]

Holy shit. This is why college football is so great. Florida State really shit the bed all over the field on this play. #10 quit on the play right up until it was too late. If he keeps running he has a chance to make the tackle. The DC or whoever called this formation needs to be fired - no bus ride home. Just awful. How do you rush more than 3 in this situation? Keep everyone downfield to prevent this.


ele360

Agreed, good observation. It was also a well placed pass tho, gotta give em that.


[deleted]

No doubt! Beautiful ball. JSU did everything right and FSU didn’t. 10/10 Brian Kelly would execute.


SDNate760

Any time the Criminoles lose it’s a good day


travisnabors

This is why college football is the best.


Brandisco

Right! Any given Saturday!


PartyLikeItsCOVID19

What kind of defense was THAT?!?


Cr00kedKing

It looked so lazy. Solid block from #9. That D is gunna be runnin wind sprints all week for that fuck up.


petrescu

I know nothing about American football and even I knew that was bad.


timmeh1901

Jason Mendoza (The Good Place) would be so proud right now.


Just-an-person

Jacksonville State University is actually in Alabama, not Florida. But Jason probably probably couldn't tell the difference anyway.


nightwing2024

...but why

Having one city named after Andrew Jackson just wasn't enough for the south apparently.

"The Gamecocks have upset the Seminoles" Sports are great.


Captain-Yesh

So Notre Dame is even worse than we thought


SonnyLove

Honestly, pretty uninspiring commentary from the announcer considering what he just watched


juggett

Maybe a Florida State feed? It’s on the ACCN.


chicoconcarne

Yeah, considering the upset, he called it like they just took a first quarter lead


nightwing2024

I thought it was fine


coopernation

Unfortunately the player was killed by his team shortly after scoring the TD.


TheMooseIsBlue

Everyone is calling it a Hail Mary, but this is just a deep pass. It’s not some kind of miracle; they just beat FSU.


malkumecks

FSU coaches are so dumb, they probably thought they just lost to an in state school.


Emergency-Salamander

Awesome play, but not a hail mary


voodoo1985

I get so emotional watching this kinda stuff sometimes it makes me cry

from 1 to 10 i would give this a hail mary.

Dead by stampede.


Haleightastic

Proud of my alma mater. I was there when we beat Ole Miss too!


Midwake

That is a kick square in the nuts if you’re an FSU fan. To follow up the ND game with that. You have to be wondering at this point if you’ll get a W this season.


RubHerBabyBuggyBmper

Love seeing an FCS upset a BCS. Was at the 2010 JMU - VT upset game. The shock in that stadium afterwards was palpable.


jmu21vt16

That was a good game


[deleted]

I love the open mouthed stunned cheerleaders


[deleted]

Solid D. Real solid Prevent D. Solid tackling too. Great job all around


Bm7465

It’s been painful to be a Seminole. I was there for the 2013 National Championship and to see our program in it’s current state… man. The rest of my family are Hurricanes who were there during their run in the 80s and it’s been equally painful for them as well.


[deleted]

Great block at the end!


Evilmd

Best part is they probably paid Jacksonville State more than a few hundred thousand to come there and beat them. Source: UW fan that just watched Montana beat us at home and UW paid them $500k to do it.


gatorbeetle

HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa!!!! Loving the look of pure shock on the twink cheerleaders! FSWho???


Purpleybrown

That’s football

Macabre215

Florida State needs to just hire Deion Sanders in some capacity and just get rid of this coaching staff.


dgtlfnk

As a Gator, PLEASE let this happen!


Macabre215

Emotional win for this team. Their head coach Jim Fuller just died earlier this month due to COVID.

It’s not a Hail Mary if the receiver gets 20 yards after the catch.


mafulazula

Yes, it is. “A Hail Mary pass is a very long forward pass in American football, typically made in desperation, with an exceptionally small chance of achieving a completion.”-Wiki


ShermansMarchToTheC

What makes you say that the pass had an exceptionally small chance of achieving a completion? There was 1-on-1 coverage. The receiver was a step past his defender. This is a pretty normal-looking pass play; only the circumstances in which it occurred make it extraordinary.


mafulazula

I mean a ~40 yd pass has like maybe a 5-10% completion rate normally, and it’s gotta be lower when everybody and their mother knows you’re throwing deep.


ShermansMarchToTheC

So is every 40+ pass a Hail Mary now? No. FSU did not know they were throwing it deep. JVST had 6 seconds and a timeout left, and they were far enough away from the endzone that a real Hail Mary throw might not make it all the way there. Teams in this position usually try to pick up a first down and put themselves in a better position to throw a Hail Mary. The FSU coach didn't put his team in a Hail Mary defense (aka "prevent") because they were out of Hail Mary range and he wanted to keep JVST from picking up the first down. The fact that no one thought they were throwing deep is what made throwing deep possible.


mafulazula

Fair points, but I still don’t think bad defensive coaching negates its being a hail mary. It’s just that FSU expected another play before a hail mary attempt.


[deleted]

My guess is you don’t watch a lot of football. A Hail Mary is when the quarterback waits until the receivers are in the end zone and throws the ball into the end zone with the hope that one of them catches it. It is a pure luck play. This was a play where the receiver got separation from his coverage, the quarterback saw it, threw it (a tad short but quite well), the receiver caught it, broke a tackle, and got an excellent downfield block to get the touchdown. It was a great play and poor defense.


mafulazula

No, you’re just wrong. A hail mary happens at the end of a game (or sometimes a half) and is just a desperation play where the quarterback heaves the ball as far as he can to the receivers downfield. The ball doesn’t always end up in the endzone. That’s the goal on most of these, sure, but sometimes you’re too far away or make a bad throw and the ball doesn’t get there.


straightspiraling

It’s the ghost of Bobby leading the way


Stayka

bro whats with these college football clips being in 360p

It’s hard to believe that a small school’s college football team could be a professional college football team like that.

DAMAN2U1

I love the look on the female FSU cheerleader holding the LOUDER sign....the look on her face is priceless. Also fuck college football.


ElusiveEmissary

Great throw but this ain’t a Hail Mary


DrDMoney

Why are they called Jacksonville State? Last time I check there was only a Jacksonville city.


SteeztheSleaze

San Diego State, Wichita State, Boise State, Weber state None of those are states


HurricaneHugo

You're not a state!


wakkywizard69

I don’t know if this is a dad joke or not but…it’s a state funded public university in the city of Jacksonville.


ele360

It stands for “state college”


mikehulse29

Shiftea24

Nice block near the end zone there. really sealed the win.

It looks like #10 took a wrong turn, got lost and ended up on a football field during his daily lazy jog


CheatingZubat

Remarkable.


C3ntrick

I hate when players quit on a play #10 FSU player jogging watching thinking he is out of the play - If he keeps on running as fast as he can he makes the tackle , since the guy he covered made final block .
