Oklahoma vs. Florida State: Seminoles Sooners first visit with BCS hopes on line
"That's huge in the way of a team to have to deal with," Fisher said.
"I think our fans are very strong for the kids," said quarterback EJ Manuel. "Hope you get a bit confused."
Jones can not wait.
"It will be fun to play against a team of high quality kids," he said. "We have to play all the time and do not always get to go to Tallahassee."
The game will also be a test for Manuel, who played in the final of the season 10-4 last year. Manuel is 6-2 as a starter and was responsible for wins over West Virginia and South Carolina after taking over for an injured Christian Ponder.
Jones, Ryan Broyles receiver and the rest of the OU offense will also be a great test for the Seminoles defense coached by his younger brother leans, "Mark Stoops.
"They were not prepared for that test a year ago," Mark Stoops said. "They were not prepared for the environment and the speed of the game."
Wait until you reach the score on Saturday.
Florida State defense this season has been nothing short of magnificent, despite the opposition has been less than stellar.
"I feel we're bigger and stronger," said Stoops. "We like our depth and we like our players. Now we have to take the next step."
The Seminoles have allowed 10 points and less than 300 meters in easy victories in Louisiana-Monroe and South Charleston.
The speed of the game changes dramatically Saturday.
"It's faster than fast," said Florida State linebacker Nigel Bradham.
Added against Everett Dawkins: "They run two plays and 10 seconds that will be lined up ready to do another." Just be ready. "
Dizzying pace the Sooners held by the younger leaning occupied since last year's loss in the OU.
Fisher made a change to the offensive line this week in hopes of strengthening a slow game running. Jacob Fahrenkrug, who started the first two games in the middle, switched positions with left guard Bryan Stork.
Florida State will be without receiver Willie Haulstead all for a third straight game and the veteran wide receiver Bert Reed has been hampered in practice this week with a sprained ankle.
One of the most interested spectators was Bowden, who was involved in several family disputes in the same field when he coached against his son Tommy Bowden, when the young man was in Clemson.
Bowden, however, they look on TV. Ever the optimist, Bowden likes the possibilities Seminoles.
"Remember when Pitt got there in 1980 with that team throughout the world?" Bowden asked in a telephone interview. "I felt like in my 57 years, which is the best team that never lined up against. It bothers them that day in Tallahassee. I hope that the State of Florida can do that again this week."
"It Boy, is great," he said. "I think we really have the feeling it might."
