FSU Defense Played Hard For Four Quarters

* Lee Corso and Kirk "The Homer" Herbstreit on ESPN's Gameday both picked Maryland against the Noles. Not surprising really. These guys in my opinion are a joke.

* Everette Brown had a great sack on the first Maryland drive.

* Speaking of Brown, he ought to patent his spin moves.

* Corey Surrency has been disappointing. He had two dropped balls and both in the end zone.

* FSU's kickoff coverage team hopefully will put in some extra time for the Gators. They need it.

* Jimbo Fisher called the option play and Ponder executed it well against Maryland.

* One thing that can be said for Ponder. He doesn't mind taking a hit.

* Nice clip by ESPN of former NBA great and ex senator Bill Bradley congratulating Myron Rolle on his Rhodes scholarship.

* It was nice to see the FSU defense snap back from a horrible BC game. It was also nice to see the defense stop Maryland from scoring at the end of the game.

* And in other college news, can someone tell me why Charlie Weis shouldn't be fired at Notre Dame? Bet Tyrone Willingham would like to know why also.
