felix comes in and we pull away thanks to his insane play.  we never see him again. 

Felix played in the 2nd half

He came in only once in second half.

I am aware.  He said that "we never saw him again," I was pointing out that his statement was incorrect.

i must have left the room for a minute to get my twinkies and milk.

I agree with Moose's and Desco's "rest of way analysis". That said I look at the South Carolina game as a challenge. Martin is an outstanding coach who, IMO, will bring a disciplined team that will play us tight. NC Ashville is a weak squad, having lost a few good players from last year's successful team.

Florida Gulf Coast did not look bad against Duke, who pulled away in the second half.  They aren't a push over either.  I think we should expect to get tripped up once more before conference play.

You are correct on FGCU. Having lived in Naples part time, I know their coach, who worked at FSU, is a solid recruiter, game coach and comer. They beat Miami this year, but Scott was out. I expect us to win, but Enfield will make it difficult for us for a decent part of the game.

And they beat Miami.  But nevertheless SJU will be favored in every one of their remaining games.  I am not suggesting they will BLOW out every remaining opponent, I could see South Carolina being a fight for example, but they should still win all 8.  7 of them are at Carnesecca/MSG/Barclays and just 1 they will need to get on a plane for-San Francisco.  Plus the hope is they should get Sanchez back soon.

9-3 is not the end of the world but 10-2 is more then realistic.

9-3 is more realistic. The odds are they will not run the table .
