Flarduh would have beaten FSU without the dirty targeting hit that put the FSU QB out of the game. From that exact moment they were dominated by the Noles.
Flarduh was down 2 points, at home, and had the FSU QB sliding feet first a full 5 yards short of the sticks on 3rd down. Would have gotten the ball back with decent to good field position with over 2 minutes left and all their timeouts. They had 2 DBs hit an obviously defenseless QB....a starting Safety hit him helmet to helmet diving while sprinting as fast as he could and knocked him silly and out of the game. The Safety got hit with targeting and ejected....plus 15 yards from the end of the run...and FSU easily rolled down the field and scored TD to put the game away. Kicked the ball back to Flarduh and their 1st 3 plays went : sack, sack, INT. Ballgame.
Sometimes justice (also known as karma) is immediate. Like in Gainesville tonight, or when someone tries to rob, carjack, or break in the home of a Concealed Carry type dude and gets put down for their efforts. This was kinda like that. It was great...especially since i think Louisville will beat FSU next in the ACC championship game, then neither of them make the playoffs because Kentucky pulled off an upset somehow and beat Louisville so they will not get in this season even with the ACC chip. There are 4 better teams with better records, and then some. Nice.
