I mean I don't know the numbers and all but don't all acc teams get the same revenue? I don't think they would agree to a buyout they couldn't afford.

miami operates with the same athletic budget as UF , and if they didn't have the money they could raise it in a few hours . we're just cheap .

Excellent news Dre. I was worried that the committee would choose the doctors fighting Ebola over Jameis which would be a tragedy.

I dont like these rankings this is worse than the BCS

How is FSU currently undefeated and number 4 while TCU is the number 3 and they lost to Baylor

Predictions

Breakout Player: Al-Quadin Muhammad

Heisman: Mariota
4 Team Playoff: BAMA, FSU, MSU, Oregon

National Champion: BAMA

My breakout player didn't play one down this year and MSU was disappointing

Almost picked Auburn too but I felt like they lost too many key players too injury and the nfl

Because FSU's schedule is trash (not their fault, before the season it looked yowzers) they've struggled vs. every opponent including Citadel, and TCU is out here dropping 80+ on cats by half time.

As long as Stave still hasn't learned to throw a forward pass I think we should be fine

Meant to tag you as well. I'm hyped.

Saw Stave live at RU, boy can't throw worth a lick.

 

[witnesskb24]

Gordon is gonna get his regardless, we just can't let him kill us. Cardale is surrounded by talent so I'm not too worried offensively. I think we have better personnel at most positions it's all a matter of coming out and executing

Doesn't Miami miss out on a ton of revenue because of their stadium deal? Also I don't think the administration has ever cared much about football it's as if they'll take the success if it comes on the cheap but aren't willing to spend for it.

Link to prove that? I have a very hard time believing that, given that UF has a much larger population/alumni base and a bigger stadium that sells out consistently whereas Miami rarely sells out their games and is a smaller/private school. Is Miami's endowment really that large to allow them to spend as much as UF does?

Florida State was up by 34 before they scored

Come on guy ya don't have to exaggerate to prove an otherwise somewhat legitimate point. Don't be a talking head, you're better than that.

Yea, I can't find that anywhere. 

 Highly doubt it's true because UF spends over $100mill and they're in the top 10 of budgets. No chance that Miami is that high. They're not forced to disclose as a private institution though. 

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

It's not true at least I doubt it

[gunna get it]

Dont know what their respective budgets are/were but UM and UF had Basically the same expenses in 2012. Now overall budgeting for recruiting trips, ads, community out reach projects, etc could be the tipping point.

I dont see how FSU's schedule is any more trash than TCU's

Currently FSU are the defending National Champions, they have a returning Heisman winner and they are undefeated while all the rest of the teams have a loss

A undefeated team from a major conference

How they arent number 1 baffles me

Also how the heck is TCU ranked 3 spots ahead of Baylor
