News and Notes

North Carolina fired head coach Butch Davis. It doesn't affect Florida State that much this season as the Seminoles and Tar Heels don't play each other this season. However, it will help a division foe like Clemson who happens to host North Carolina in the middle of the season. As a Florida State fan, it is smart to root for any Coastal Divison team when they matchup with one of the other Atlantic Divison teams. It seems like Clemson definitely has an upper-hand in that matchup now, more than before the firing.

The FSU Athletics Department announced yesterday that the Family Zone season ticket, Young Alumni season ticket, and the Three-Game ticket packages are officially sold out this season. It is the first time ever that any of those ticket packages have sold out. Also, 91% of the season ticket holders from last season renewed their tickets for this season, which is the highest rate in the last eight seasons.

Doak will be a more popular place this fall than it has been in the past decade. As the team returns to the national spotlight, so will the fans. The 2011 schedule features some great games including Oklahoma, Miami, NC State, and Maryland. Come out and support your 'Noles.
