I think if we went 1-11 and that one win was over Florida, everybody would be satisfied,” FSU quarterback Christian Ponder says.

Sorry, but this is embarrassing. Florida State should not lose to N.C. State. Not this year, not last year. Not home, not away. Not ever.

We had it in hand,” Ponder said. “We had been rolling and playing really well, and it was the first time in a while that we had control of our own destiny in the ACC.

The ‘Noles D leads the nation in QB sacks and is fifth in tackles for loss and 13th in scoring defense.

To me, it seems that N.C. State fans once used Florida State as a measuring stick. If the Wolfpack could beat the Seminoles – even hang with them – it was a sign that N.C. State was headed in the right direction. I think now Florida State fans might be viewing this game as a measuring stick, too. N.C. State was one of the first ACC teams to have success against the Seminoles. And the Wolfpack’s success, in some ways, signaled Florida State’s decline. So if Florida State is to reclaim that dominance, it has to start by handling teams like N.C. State. If Florida State wins big on Thursday night, I’d imagine that some Seminoles fans would conclude that FSU is indeed on the way back to being what it once was, because it would have whipped a program that has given Florida State so many problems over the years.
