On the snub that was mentioned....prolly cause jimblow is out there with a champs hat on. I can't recall seeing a coach with a shirt or hat on after the game
Cut really snubbed Jimbo, I wonder what that was about. I'm sure we'll hear about in the press conference.
Proud of the team this year. FSU has by far the most talented roster in the country. We fought hard had our chances and got beat by a better team. I think Duke Football is here to stay.
I'll be pulling for FSU in the National Championship. I actually like Jameis Winston...
Congrats to our guys. Great season.
We showed up, we played hard (and a lot cleaner than FSU) for 60 minutes, and we got out with no serious injuries. Mission accomplished.
Sooner than you think, Duke will be dishing out that kind of beating.
Proud of our guys, for sure. It was a memorable run, and we still have a bowl game to go.
I will have a hard time pulling for F$U in the championship. Chapel Hill might have to freeze over before I am willing to do so.
I have no problem with cold congratulations; Cut has no obligations to make friends out there. I also have nothing against FSU scoring as many points as they want. This was a championship game and Duke did not play championship-caliber football.
Immensely proud of Duke. We fought and fought hard. FSU is incredibly talented at every position, and it wore us down.
One more game for this remarkable group of guys to play. One more chance to surprise people.
Winston was about to admit it if he would've kept talking. Smart move to pull him away.
I'll root for FSU in the title game. I think it's rather petty to call them "F$U." I want the ACC to be relevant. And Michigan State just made Auburn pretty relevant, I think. Unless Ohio State can score twice in two minutes.
A movie is not about what it's about; it's about how it's about it.

My impressions:
1. Wow, that was a quick handshake by Cut. He must have been as annoyed as I was by FSU's BS.
2. Despite the score, I felt Duke was extremely respectable tonight.
3. Now that we're a football school, I will begin to dislike FSU after having liked them for the past 20 years.
4. If Duncan had caught that pass in the first quarter, or we had gone for it on 4th down at the end of the 2nd quarter, I felt the game might have come out a bit differently.
5. The Peach Bowl should feel confident we can hold our own against the #5 team from the SEC.
6. Kelby Brown is a Bad*ss....major props to him...and the rest of the defense...great season guys!!!
Forgot one:
7. Ending the 1st quarter tied at 0-0 was a major, major victory IMHO. Would have been better if it was 3-0, us. But that's OK. Still a major accomplishment.
Mark me down as immensely proud as well. While I didn't want to concede defeat before the game, I did have a mental list of moral victories and we checked off quite a few.
In the game at the end of the first quarter (tied, in fact!).
Scored a touchdown (albeit late).
Turned them over (two interceptions on the future Heisman trophy winner!).
We played hard and, even if it only lasted for a quarter, we put a scare in them. Definitely something to build on.
Sorry, but one more:
8. That interview with Winston at the end was pretty uncool. The kid is on his way to the National Championship, and probably Heisman, and the reporter asks 4 out of 5 questions focusing on an investigation to which he has been acquitted. THAT IS JUST BAD JOURNALISM. Have just a little respect....
