1. Famous Jameis lives up to the hype.
This game numbers wise was by far the worst
game for Winston. However, it showcased what talents he possesses that makes truly
GREAT quarter backs. He has heart, he has leadership, and he has a touch of
swagger. Throughout this season ESPN has been busy highlighting the numbers
that Jameis puts up. But I was watching his character. He stayed focused the
entire season despite numerous trials and tribulations. He consistently said he
was going to win and was only focused on a national championship. He came to play
and he played to win. His heart and will
to win along with his SINCERE team based mindset is why he is going to be a
future Hall of Fame QB. This man is diligent and almost brainwashed like a
marine. Every interview “team this, team that,” “WE are going to win a national
championship,” “This Heisman is for THE TEAM.” He never lost that mindset and
that is what got him the perfect season and a national championship. He makes his teammates want to play great. This is an un-coachable, rare,
amazing talent. This is why after trailing by 18 points half-time, and
experiencing more troubles during the third quarter; he was able to rally the
troops in Tom Brady like fashion, and do what needed to be done to win.
2. The SEC ain’t nothing to fuck with.
With the BCS out and the new play off
style bracket coming get ready for total domination. I still don’t fully
understand the new system but what I do know is that strength of schedule is
going to be taken into account now and these schools from other conferences
are going to really need to step up to the plate. Auburn actually came out like
their mascot today. TIGERS. I mean Got Damn! They came out with a tempo and
speed that FSU defiantly wasn’t ready for. FSU quickly realized, “DAMN THEM
BOYS FAST!” and “SHIT HE HIT ME HARD AS FUCK”. The SEC is seriously a mini NFL
defensively. Offensively they make big plays too but not as often and as
exciting as the other conferences (although I think that is going to start to change). However, what we all know is, “defense wins
championships!”. So welcome to the South FSU, we will not make shit easy next
year (not saying Florida isn’t in The South but you know…it’s FLORIDA…they
different).
3. Dreams really do come true.
What a fuckin storybook
ending! It’s so perfect I don’t even think kids dream of shit like this because
it’s THAT UNREAL. I think little boys might grow up dreaming about winning a
Heisman trophy, or winning the national championship, maybe both. But I don’t
think many kids are even comprehending having a perfect season, winning the
Heisman, winning the national championship…and winning it ON YOUR BIRTHDAY! In
a dramatic last minute, perfectly executed 2 minute drill for a touch down.
Seriously, can you even IMAGINE the type of pussy he is about to get tonight ?
(although if he is smart he may want to stay away from the White girls). Jameis Winston is good for football. He is
charismatic, a great leader, from a small town, and he is not hurt in the face like some other players. HE also has a GREAT nick name and a wonderful story. America is
lost right now, shit is crazy, unemployment is whatever, governments are
shutting down, etc. Football may not be American’s past time but it is
America’s PASSION. Jameis Winston is the All-American sports hero, and Americans
would really like to have something to believe in right now. There is a new
generation of quarter backs emerging and if Jameis Winston keeps the same
attitude and focus and continues to be touched by God, PR wise, we may have a
future Michael Jordan of football on our hands. Remember I said it first. Most of his
critics will say “we should wait and see how he handles the success and
attention and tougher schedule with play offs and blah blah blah.” And they are
right. But I just have a feeling “Famous Jameis” will not let us down.
4. Gus Malzahn is a hell of a coach…and a damn good 2nd chance QB finder.
First it was Cam Newton now it’s
Nick Marshall. Where the hell does he find these diamonds in the rough? It’s
like he looks for football players in the pages of SEC schools’ local Bad and
Busted. Then he keeps getting all these “miracle” wins. There is something to
this coach. He clearly must have a gift to motivate and push young men to do
their best and be proud of themselves. He takes RAW talent and molds them into
great quarterbacks, Nick Marshall and Cam Newton both are tall and fast. They
both also have secret weapons, THEIR ARMS.
Nick Marshall was throwing passes during the BCS title game with pro like speed and
precision, that’s something I had not noticed in him before. Ironically,
Marshall at UGA, played his defensive counter part, a defensive back, until he
ran into some legal problems; just like Cam. He played at some small community
college; just like Cam, and some how Gus found him and turned him into a star;
just like Cam. There is a common denominator and it is the coach. This guy is
genius. One of the biggest problems for Auburn is recruiting. It has to contend
with Saban’s Alabama not to mention the rest of the SEC and now after Alabama
Native Jameis Winston’s success FSU. So instead of trying to compete with those
guys he goes to the bargain aisle and finds deals. Guys who were good, but were
maybe in the wrong program, playing the wrong position, or got into trouble,
but have the heart and desire for a chance to shine in the SEC and contend for
the championship. Guy is not only creating better football players, he is
creating leaders. He will definitely be a coach to watch in the next few
upcoming seasons. Which brings me to my
final point
5. Now is the time for the emergence of….THE BLACK QUARTERBACK
One of the first things I noticed
about the game was that both teams had Black QBs. One of those teams was a SEC
team. For so long the SEC has been a dominating, but pretty cut and dry
conference. You have a fast big nigga to run the ball, you have tall fast
niggas to catch the ball, and you have big mean niggas to hit the QB and all the
other niggas, and you have a White QB who can sling it to stand in the pocket
and “manage” the game (sorry to put it so blatantly and not politically correct, I could go in on how
football resembles slavery at times but that’s a whole separate blog ). If the SEC wants
to remain contenders in this new system and dominate the NCAA, they will need
to get with the program, and they are starting to (I wish UGA would hurry
up…they missed out when they had DJ Shockley). First it was Auburn with Cam and
Marshall. LSU’s follow up for Mettenberger is Marietta Georgia’s own Anthony
Jennings, a fast, spirited QB with lots of potential. Clemson had Taj Boyd, and
FSU had EJ Manuel and of course Jamies. The time has finally come to put the
Black man in the leadership position, and it only makes sense; seeing as the
majority of football teams are predominantly Black. Now I’m not trying to make
football a race thing, because the beauty of sports is that certain things
don’t matter on the field, either you win or lose. BUT in my opinion, it has
always seemed like the quarterback and head coach role were always saved for
“good ole boys.” However, with the emergence of Michael Vick, then the success
of guys like RGIII and Jameis Winston, the door is finally wide open for Black
men to lead great football teams. That being said, when I say “Black QB” I’m
really referring the new generation “dual-threat” quarter back. More and more
we are seeing fewer star QBs in college be typical pocket passers (AJ McCarron and Mettenberger are good examples of some of the last ones). Johnny Manziel, Nick Marshall, and
even Jameis (as seen in the BCS title game), can burn you with their legs. This
is about to be a great time for football. We are currently watching football
transform and be taken to the next level. Defensive coordinators are going to
have to learn how to defend the QB’s run attack (we should start seeing more
plays that implement a QB spy). Offenses are going to change and adapt their playbook.
Football is about to become a lot more exciting. The Manning, Tom Brady, Brett
Farve, glory days of football are coming to an end, those guys are getting old.
Get ready for this next generation of QBs. They will truly be something to
watch.
