((HT: WCTV-TV Thomasville, Tallahassee))
And they didn't even play Miami, damn it...
The HQ can rattle them off like nothing: Derek Schmidt, Richie Andrews, Danny Mowrey, Gerry Thomas, Xavier Beitia...
We can now add Dustin Hopkins to the list...
Hopkins missed a potentially game-winning field goal as Florida State blew their chance to beat North Carolina on HOMECOMING 37-35...
North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates finished the game with 439 yards and three touchdowns. Dwight Jones was his leading target- grabbing eight passes for 233 yards and one TD.
Connor Barth did what Hopkins could not- knocking in a field goal with 55 seconds left in reglation for the lead and, eventually, the win...
WCTV's Sam Lane has the post mortem...
Christian Ponder went 24 of 34 for 264 yards and three touchdowns. Sophomore wide receiver Willie Haulstead had a career-high 10 catches for 154 yards and one touchdown.
Next up for FSU is Clemson...

On Second Thought, I'm Not Feely-ing It...
Jay Feely's ((pictured, thanks AP)) tenure as a Kansas City Chiefs kicker lasted all of, oh, one day.
Adam Teicher of the Kansas City Star lets us in on just how long a one-year contract can last- 364 days short of the number...
Nick Novak and Connor Barth are back to the front of the line.
Here's the reason why... in a two-day kicking competition, here are the numbers:
Barth- 28 of 30
Novak- 27 of 30
Feely- 23 of 30
“We’re shocked, baffled, disappointed,” said his agent, Glenn Schwartzman. “It was not our understanding that they were just going to give the job to Jay. We in no way thought that. We knew he would have to win the job.
“While no one promised him the job, we were under the impression he would be given a better opportunity to win it. If they’re going to base it off two days of kicking, they probably shouldn’t have signed him. It makes no sense to make a decision about Jay without letting him kick in the preseason game.
“Had we known he wasn’t even going to get that chance, we never would have signed with the Chiefs.”
Um... yeah...
Feely had hit 21 of his 23 kicks last year with the Miami Dolphins, who released him during training camp.
An explanation from the Chiefs on Feely's cameo has yet to come to us media types...
