Paul A. Esden Jr: Hey guys, I want to start off with this. Florida State for some reason has started off slow all year long. Going into the BC game, against seven division one opponents, the Seminoles only scored nine points in the first quarter combined in the first seven games of the season. What’s the issue?

"Jason (@jpchopchat): Some of the credit has to go to the defenses that FSU has played, More from Inside the Loud House Syracuse Football: Cuse boils Purdue, turns attention to Army on Saturday Syracuse football only team in country with top-5 scoring offense, defense Syracuse Basketball: 4-star Elijah Moore not in top 100, and I don’t get that Syracuse basketball 4-star west-coast recruit, in new rankings, into top 20 Syracuse basketball is hitting D.C. market hard in pursuit of 4-stars, 5-stars including teams like Louisville, Miami, and even BC last week being ranked 14th nationally. Starting off slow has been the MO for the Seminoles over much of the last three seasons. The easy answer would be that it takes them a little while to get adjusted to their opponent, but there really is no one answer."

"Kelvin (@khchopchat): Man, if I knew the answer to that question…I would be a rich man because all of #Nolenation would probably pay big money to fix this issue. Ultimately, I think it seems to have begun in 2014 with Jameis and all those heroic comebacks to remain undefeated and make the inaugural playoffs. For some reason, they have become comfortable getting behind and trying to roar back for the win."
