Other than bold words from FSU quarterback Thomas Castellanos, optimism for the Noles to upset Alabama Football is limited. Few FSU fans predict an upset. It appears the prevailing opinion of FSU fans is to hope the Noles don't get blown out, with the greatest upside potential being in the game into the fourth quarter.
Grasping for straws, a few FSU media sources argue that Alabama losing Jam Miller to injury greatly boosts FSU's chances. That conclusion only means that few, if any FSU media sources understand the tremendous talent and depth in the Alabama Crimson Tide running back group.
