I have to say I am embarrassed by some of the comments I've read. Aside from that, I am an FSU alum and I think it's great that gameday is at FAMU. Who cares if neither team is number 1. At least it's a team from Tally! And by the way, keep the comments related to college football, there are other websites to share your personal grievances on.
Looking at these negative comments I wonder why people love to sit and lessen the goodness of something great coming to the university. Racism, sexism, etc. is so disgusting and needs to be left in the immature and ignorant brain it came from. Just be happy that ESPN is trying something new, no matter where it is or who it's for.
i was born and raised in tallahassee, i graduated from FAMU almost 2 years ago....im not hating, however it is very hard 2 believe that ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY will broadcast from FAMU this weekend....although my city has a tendancy 2 make drastic changes when i decide to leave lol....i wish i was still there, but i know there's got 2 be a catch somewhere......
