No. 2 FSU rallies to avoid upset at Louisville
Winston, Florida State rally to beat Louisville From ESPN.com - College Football - No. 2 FSU rallies to avoid upset at Louisville
Florida State rallies from 21 down to beat Louisville, stay undefeated
Florida State seems to be at its best when its back is against the wall.
Trailing by as many as 21, the Seminoles put together a nearly flawless second half to escape Louisville with a 42-31 victory.
But the final score didn’t paint an accurate picture of how the game played out.
In the first half, the Seminoles were on upset alert.
Louisville jumped out a 21-0 lead and Florida State looked shell-shocked. Winston threw two interceptions in the first half — and would add a career-high third in the second half — and Louisville defense was playing about as well as it has all season.
But in the second half, that all changed.
Winston threw his third pick on his first pass of the second half but then managed to force a fumble and get the Seminoles the ball back.
That played seemed to spark something in Florida State as it proceeded to dominate Louisville in the second half. The Seminoles outgained Louisville 380-170 in the second half and was 5-of-8 on third down. Louisville never converted a third down.
Florida State wore down the Louisville defense and with the help of some strange and lucky bounces was able to take the lead and eventually pull away.
While Winston threw for 401 yards and three touchdowns, this was not his Heisman moment. He made several bad mistakes in the first half and early in the second and he also got away with a couple passes that also should have been intercepted. More importantly, he injured his ankle midway through the second half. While he played through the injury, it was clear he was hurting as he limped his way around the pocket.
Many picked this game to break the Seminoles winning streak, which is now extended to 24 games, but the ‘Noles pulled it out like they have in a few contests, including the national title game, during that streak.
There aren’t many more opponents that could give the Seminoles trouble as they come down the home stretch of the regular season. They host a decent Virginia defense next week and an improving Miami team the week after. After that, they host a Boston College team that beat USC, but hasn’t been that great since, and a Florida team that’s pretty miserable on offense.
Then, the ‘Noles might be looking at an ACC championship game rematch against Duke.
Following Thursday’s triumph against Louisville, Florida State’s path to the College Football Playoff just got a lot clearer.

The Dr. Saturday Podcast Week 10: Don't sweat the rankings, people
Welcome to the Dr. Saturday Podcast! Throughout the season we'll be talking weekly about whatever is going on in the world of college football. This week, join Graham Watson and Nick Bromberg as we break down the College Football Playoff rankings that will be totally different by next week. It's a pointless exercise, but someone has to do it. We'll also discuss:
• Marcus Mariota and Oregon finally getting over the Stanford hump.
• The curious case of Notre Dame and the CFP committee.
• Pick the top matchups of the weekend, including Bad/Good Bo against Auburn, Utah and Sparky, and the potentially high-scoring affair between TCU and West Virginia.
• Also, we'll discuss whether any Florida State player will be suspended for the rest of the season. Hey, there's still time (save the nasty emails until after you listen).
• Nick laments about his Royals and Graham seeks out tips for her new homebrewing hobby.
Yes, there's a lot of random conversation going on this week, but that's exactly how we like it.

VOD: Navy Nicki Minaj song parody talks trash about Notre Dame
Notre Dame and Navy have played annually since 1927, and most of the time (74 times to be exact), the Fighting Irish come out on top.
Despite the Irish’s current three-game winning streak in the series, some students from the Naval Academy dished out some serious trash talk via a rap video before Saturday’s matchup at FedEx Field in Landover, Md.
Though I don’t think there’s much of a chance for the 4-4 Midshipmen to knock off the tenth-ranked Irish (6-1), I am impressed with this video in all aspects – from production quality to this girl’s immaculate Nicki Minaj impression.
Even though the original song (“Anaconda”) is impossibly bad, this parody is pretty entertaining. Well done.

From Gossip, Fast Fashion, Female Lifestyle, Sex & Love: CollegeCandy » College Candy - This Halloween DIY Is Sweet And Simple Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy tried to trademark 'I'm a man, I'm 40' from infamous rant (Video)
Though Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy has had a lot of success during his time in Stillwater, to some, he’s still best known for a post-game press conference rant from 2007.
Gundy sounded off on a local reporter who criticized quarterback Bobby Reid, who had recently been demoted to second string. Since then, the recognizable line of “Come after me! I’m a man! I’m 40!” has been replayed countless times, and in an interview with Campus Insiders, Gundy admitted that he actually tried to trademark that phrase, but someone else did it before he could.
Additionally, Gundy said people don’t say the phrase to him as much as they once did, but he has signed autographs for a fans' 40th birthdays and even caught his 12-year-old son imitating it.
On top of that, Gundy said the rant has helped the Cowboys’ program with recruiting. He even went so far as to call it a “turning point” in his career and for the OSU program.
“There’s a statistic out there that from that point on, our percentages of wins, losses, bowls, and being ranked in the top 20 of recruiting classes went through the roof,” Gundy said. “I think it was one of the turning points in Oklahoma State football and my career as a head coach.”

Oklahoma freshman RB Joe Mixon reaches plea agreement in assault case
Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon reached a plea agreement Thursday and will avoid trial for a misdemeanor assault charge stemming from a July 25 incident.
According to SoonerScoop.com, Mixon, a five-star freshman, entered an “Alford Plea,” where he will receive “a one-year deferred sentence” and complete “100 hours of community service” while undergoing “cognitive behavior counseling.”
In an Alford Plea, the defendant maintains innocence, but “concedes the prosecution has enough evidence” to reach a guilty verdict.
Kevin Finlay, Mixon’s attorney, said in a statement that entering the Alford Plea was “the best course of action.”
"Today, Joe has made the decision that entering an Alford Plea to the misdemeanor and accepting the short period of probation was the best course of action at this point in his life. Joe does not want to be a further distraction to his family, friends, teammates, and the University of Oklahoma. Joe would like to apologize to everyone affected by this unfortunate chain of events. Joe looks forward to continuing towards his goal of becoming a successful student and athlete at the University of Oklahoma."
Mixon pleaded not guilty in August and was suspended by the program for the entire 2014-15 season. The police affidavit stated that the victim in the incident, 20-year-old Amelia Rae Molitor, was knocked unconscious and suffered a “fractured jaw, fractured cheek bone, fractured sinus, and fractured orbit which caused a hematoma on the left eye.”
Surveillance cameras in the restaurant where the incident took place captured the scene and Norman, Okla., police arranged a viewing of the tape for the media in September.
Following the slap (from Molitor) across the left side of his neck, Mixon unloads a violent right handed hook. There's really not a nice or clean way of saying it. Molitor immediately falls to the floor from the strike, hitting her face on the edge of the table in the process. Mixon immediately bolts out of frame.
With the plea agreement now in place, video of the incident video will likely be released soon via an open records request.
Mixon, the No. 8 overall prospect in the country in the 2014 recruiting class, has not practiced with the team since arriving on campus over the summer.

Ohio State QB J.T. Barrett expecting to play despite sprained MCL
J.T. Barrett isn't anticipating missing Saturday's game against Illinois despite a sprained MCL in his left knee. While the knee is swollen, Barrett said Wednesday that he'll need a major setback before the game to not take the field.
"It would have to be something drastic to happen between now and Saturday," Barrett said after practice via BuckeyeGrove.com. "I plan on playing on Saturday."
Barrett said his knee was sore and there was some swelling, but wore a brace on it at practice. The injury happened before halftime of the Buckeyes' double-overtime win at Penn State.
Barrett tore the ACL in his right knee in high school, so this injury doesn't have any relation to the previous one. And while Ohio State fans may be wondering why Braxton Miller missed two games last year with a sprained MCL, it's worth remembering that sprains have differing severeties and that people respond different to injuries.
"I have talked to him about it and he was just saying that everybody is different and that is what the trainer is saying, Braxton said that (his) was much more stiff and sore and things like that and that is why he needed to miss two games and mine just wasn't the case," Barrett said.
Miller is out this year after an injury to his throwing shoulder. Following a slow start in his first serious action as Miller's replacement, Barrett has played well. The Penn State game was the first time in four games that he'd thrown an interception. He's thrown 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 2014.

Florida State RB Karlos Williams could be part of Title IX investigation
There could be another high-profile Title IX investigation involving a Florida State football player.
According to the Associated Press, RB Karlos Williams is subject to a Title IX investigation after allegations of domestic battery were brought against him.
Earlier in the week, Williams' former girlfriend, the woman who accused him of the offenses, said she wanted the charges dropped. However, the Tallahassee Police Department is still looking into the accusations.
But university spokeswoman Browning Brooks told The Associated Press in an email Wednesday that, ''While each set of facts and circumstances is different, as a general matter notice of any Title IX-related issues would prompt an investigation.''
The Tallahassee Police Department confirmed it is investigating an alleged domestic battery case involving Williams. It said it continues despite the woman involved filing an affidavit asking police to end the investigation.
The woman's lawyer also told the AP that he believes the university found out via social media. Earlier in the week, a screencap of pictures from what was purportedly the woman's Facebook account were being shared.
Quarterback Jameis Winston is part of a Title IX investigation after he was accused of sexual assault in 2012. Per Title IX rules, even if no charges are filed, the university must look into allegations. Winston is set to have an upcoming hearing as part of the Title IX investigation that will be presided by a former member of the Supreme Court. However, no date has been set for Winston's hearing.
DB Ronald Darby and LB Chris Casher, Winston's roommates, have already been a part of a Title IX hearing for their roles in the incident in December 7, 2012. After the delay in Florida State's investigation of Winston, lawyers for Winston's accuser asked the Department of Education to investigate Florida State.

Arkansas made a fake Heisman campaign video for Sebastian Tretola (Video)
Is Arkansas' Sebastian Tretola a Heisman contender?
Spoiler: the answer is no, but this video from Arkansas is a fantastic faux-Heisman campaign ad for the Razorbacks' guard.
The video chronicles Tretola's touchdown pass against UAB on Saturday, where he threw the ball on fourth-and-goal to long snapper Alan D'Appollonio for the touchdown. If you hadn't seen it, here's the play.
The fake beef between kicker Adam McSwain and D'Appollonio is great, but the video is worth it only for the bottom quote by Tretola. We really hope it's actually true.
"I wake up every morning, and you know, I brush my teeth with greatness, I comb my hair with greatness and I strike a Heisman pose with greatness," Tretola said.
