Fan: We need new coaches Jimbo!

FSU's loss to Louisville is its fourth this season, its most since the 2011 season. Its nation-leading streak of 35 consecutive bowl games is in danger as well — the Seminoles need to win at least four of its next five games, though that isn't a given with games remaining against both Florida and Clemson.
It's easy to understand the frustration with FSU fans, given the team started the season ranked No. 3, but fans heckling a national-championship winning coach is just plain dumb. Things will get better for the Noles, even if it's not this year.
