Throwing shit on the field because a call went against them. Was that the same guy called for targeting against us?

That was a bogus call. Terrible. Would have thrown things myself.

Looked like it fit the def of targeting to me and was glad to see the Hurricanes take their rightful spot behind FSU where they belong.

Whether or not the call was targeting, throwing debris onto your own field is just obnoxious. I'd rather just hear "boos" throughout the stadium to express their discontent with the call. But hey, Miami fans, am I right?

Was it just me or did I see a few oranges thrown on our field by our fans in our Miami game?

Overall, I thought Miami's team and fans conducted themselves in a respectful manner when they came to Boone. Of course, I didn't witness everything.

The fanbase that came to Boone is much different than a Miami home game crowd. The targeting was questionable, and since it was called targeting on the field the video was not clear enough to overturn. I've seen much cleaner hits called targeting and upheld. I saw nothing wrong with the call because there is such a large grey area.

Those must be the blue lot fans.

Six Miami fans set behind me in Section 205. At first I though OH NO. But they were very complimentary of App and politely cheered their team without any smart comments. Towards the end of the game this App fan leaving the game stopped and told them despite the results of the game Miami sucked among some other choice comments. It was embarrassing and uncalled for. I guess we all have those type fans.

Yep. Assholes are in every fan base. That fan is also a dumb ass. Miami kicked our ass, and if they still suck, what does that make us? I am going to hope alcohol affected their decision making.

Saw it at Tennessee. A couple dumb ass APP fans got mouthy and one of them got his ass kicked outside the stadium. We jumped in and settled things down from his big mouth girlfriend getting his ass kicked again. She was a real piece of work.

We had the parents of the GAState running back (25) stop by our tailgate after that game and drink a few beers with us. Nice people but they said some young people so student age weren't so nice. Fortunately we are! If I ever see a student berating a visiting fan in our house my 64 year old ass is going to have a field day dressing young App fan down.

Yeah you should have seen this yappy sorority chick that sat behind us who was beside herself. Normally I wouldn't care but I have a two year old with me learning new vocabulary.
