Dang, the Georgia Tech game tonight is a "Whiteout" (a.k.a., we're supposed to wear white.) It'll be easy for one of the two guys who sit near us. One wears a white suit/shirt/tie/bowler hat (the other wears the same thing, but in gold). I don't have a white coat. Ditto for hubby. It'll be 41 (but feel like 35 due to the wind) in the fourth quarter.

Guess we'll go early and buy really-heavy white Tech sweatshirts at the bookstore.

Go Jackets (even though I think Miami will win)!

BR, two words: THERMAL UNDIES. Upper and lower. Don't forget gloves, too.

And, just for tonight, Go Jackets.

Great, great accomplishment for Bobby Johnson and the 'dores. Heck, if they beat UT (likely, IMO), they could actually be in line for a mid-level SEC tie-in game.

I think it would be really cool for their fans if they got to play in the Music City Bowl. Not much of a trip, but it sure would beat Birmingham, Shreveport or Memphis.

I couldn't think of a better team for the Music City Bowl. They deserve it!!!

Who ya with?

VANDY!

Actually I ended up wearing a white sweater with a white turtleneck under it. I took my black puffy coat, but never needed it because it didn't seem cold to me. I think it was because I was jumping up and down so much that I stayed warm (and also hurt my knee ).

The guy who usually wears the gold suit had on white jeans and an imprinted "Georgia Tech Whiteout" t-shirt. He said it was the first Tech game he's ever been to without the gold suit on.

We had funn at the game. Got a few texts from Darlene.

OK, my team's season may have gone in the toilet, but...

Myron Rolle has been named a Rhodes Scholar!

Third one from FSU in the last five years...and far as I know, the first football player from our school to achieve that honor.

Waiting to see if all the newspapers in the State of Florida deem this as newsworthy as when one of our players gets in trouble...:roll:

Congrats Myron! Have a safe flight to DC!!

DD, I thought Wake had won when they went up 21-16. Then that great series by BC. Oh, well. Congratulations!

And only Skunky got the LSU game correct.

I don't know what you guys were thinking, that was one of the easiest picks on the board!

By the way, I totally forgot to add the Vandy-Tennessee game-sorry

That is just awesome.

OK, so we lost. I have no voice, and our clothes smell like wet dogs this morning.

But the primary reason that I enjoy attending the FSU/UF game is, win or lose, at either campus, it never fails to remind me how absolutely fortunate my family and I are to have chosen to attend and become ardent supporters of Florida State University.

Now, Roll Tide.
