Dame SarrGuestThis year marks the 40-year anniversary of the coming-of-age classic Stand By Me.
This is a movie packed with memorable moments and lines, but none of the more, none of the lines more memorable than when Jerry O'Connell at the beginning of the movie asked, "You guys wanna see a dead body?" And so to kick off tonight's Westwood One Sports Night, I ask you, you guys wanna see a dead body? Because that's what brings us to Mike Norvell and Florida State Louisville tonight.
In his seventh season in Tallahassee, Mike Norvell's now likely entering the final week as the head coach of the Seminoles.
Tonight was a game Norvell and Florida State absolutely needed to get, especially when you jump out to a 14 to nothing lead and you have the ball fourth in goal from the two.
What is it about this general region in the state of Florida, head coaches in the last 24 hours thinking that a 14-point lead or a 17-point lead in that matter is something to just discard in the trash? Todd Bowles last night putting that game in jeopardy, going for it fourth down inside the two, and Mike Norvell tonight doesn't get the touchdown, doesn't hit pay dirt.
What could happen? The very next play, this is what we heard courtesy of our friends at ESPN and Mike Monaco.
He can scoot with home run speed.
You could have kicked the field goal and it's 17-nothing, and yet you get stopped and one play after that, it's 14 to seven.
Don't forget, the Seminoles still have to play John Summerall in Florida as well.
They might not even make a bowl game, but even if they do, that's well beneath the program standard at Florida State.
So what's next? All signs points to Miami next weekend being Mike Norvell's last game as Florida State's head coach.
Number one, the Hurricanes could embarrass them, as if blowing a 14-nothing lead and allowing 28 unanswered points to Louisville isn't embarrassing enough.
