College Football is back and what may end up being a Top 10 game of the year was the first game of what is like 2000. 2023 undefeated and playoff snubbed Florida State entered the season reloaded and with playoff hopes abound. As ten-point favorites against Georgia Tech in a Week 0 kickoff game in Ireland, seemed like a great warm up and easy conference win. Not so fast. Georgia Tech has a new attitude and that is tough. Led by Jamal Haynes, the Rambling Wreck controlled the football and most importantly, the final possession to defeat the number ten Seminoles. Haynes produced gutsy runs totaling 75 yards on 11 carries, with two TDs. Toss in a couple of catches for 16 yards for over 90. No these aren't Heisman type numbers but numbers the team needed in a run first approach with variable weather against a good team. Haynes and the Yellow Jackets received 0 AP or AFCA votes in the first poll. Less than Texas State, Texas San Antonio, and Air Force among others. They'll get votes this week thanks to Haynes the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
