I love it when P5s lose and the excuse engines start ...
FSU didn't just brag about having recruiting advantages over Boise pre-game. No, FSU not only claimed the Florida heat'n humidity would also be an advantage over Boise, but getting the game moved up to noon in muggy Florida, plus in their home stadium, was the bonus.
But for some reason, now that they lost, FSU is acting like Boise State players had some built-in, uniform-automated A/C, and didn't play in the same conditions. Really? REALLY?!
Maybe, just maybe Boise had superior preparation? And that coaches like Taggart, and his staff, failed in conditioning and training? No, that's exactly it, period! One of these days P5s will stop making excuses to explain away losses to better coached and conditioned teams.
And that's all assuming, of course, Boise players weren't possibly better than the 'Power' team athletes while we're at it as well! Sigh ...
