פודקאסטים בנושא Florida State Seminoles

Florida State entered the tournament struggling a bit after losses to Notre Dame and Georgia Tech. But in recent years the tourney has galvanized the team and this season is no different as the Seminoles roll into their 3rd straight Sweet 16. After knocking off UNC Greensboro in round 1 and dominating Colorado in round of 32 the 'Noles now face top…

It's March folks, and the madness has arrived. Forget about the regular season. Forget about the ACC Tournament. It's the NCAA Tournament now, and in less than a week 48 dreams will have been dashed, leaving the dreaming to a field of 16. On the podcast we briefly touch on the Georgia Tech loss (hey, another turnover!) before moving on - or backwar…

Florida State playing for the ACC Title? You bet. For the 2nd time in three years, FSU will be playing on Saturday and be one of the last two standing in the conference. Since FSU was awarded the automatic bid to the dance last year, you have to go back to the 2017-18 season to find one where FSU wasn't competing to cut the nets down. Much like the…

Your Florida State Seminoles controlled their own destiny en route to a 2nd consecutive ACC regular season title, but that quickly went out the window when the ball tipped. FSU fell behind by 20 points, and even though they were able to make an impressive run in the 2nd half, it was too little, too late. We talk about where FSU went wrong this game…

Welcome to episode 36 of the Tomahawk Nation hoops dedicated podcast. We start with a brief recap of the Pitt and Miami games. Pitt seems to be dissolving as a program after the loss, while Miami was basically a live scrimmage for the final thirty minutes. Regardless, Florida State picked up a couple of road wins, which are key, as FSU has only pla…

When we last sat down to record a podcast, FSU was set to fly to Boston to take on the BC Eagles and their four scholarship players. Then FSU's second Covid-19 shutdown began and we all went a couple of weeks without basketball. Now Virginia Tech has Covid problems of their own, so our game vs. the Hokies has been cancelled, but the staff recovered…

FSU played twice this week, destroying Miami at home and then dropping a disappointing game at Georgia Tech. There wasn't too much to talk about from the Miami win, as everyone is blowing them out. Florida State won 81-59, which is what you want to see vs a bad team. The loss to Georgia Tech, however, was different. It's not the loss that is concer…

Florida State basketball is on a roll. They knocked off North Carolina State by 32, beat North Carolina, and then went to Louisville as a four point underdog and won by 13. They're not only winning, but they've covered each spread by an average of 16 pointss. Raiquan Gray and Rayquan Evans have been playing their best basketball, and we examine the…

In this episode of the Tomahawk Nation hoops dedicated podcast we recap the most recent wins for FSU. First there was the 32-point drubbing of NC State, and then a more modest 7-point win over North Carolina. Using the games as themes, we dive in to why FSU has been more successful after their 15-day layoff. Lots of things went well, including impr…

Saturday was a rare great day for FSU athletics. The football team won. The basketball team beat the Gators for the 7th straight time. And UF and Miami both went 0-2 in major sports and lost their football games in humiliating fashion. 2020 is almost over folks! We begin the pod (APPLE // SPOTIFY) by talking all things Gators. We should all wish th…

Good news, college hoops is back! Michael Rogner and Matt Minnick celebrate by talking first impressions from FSU basketball's win over North Florida. They also talk a bit about what is happening on the national scene, Next up is a preview of the Indiana - Florida State rematch in the ACC - Big Ten Challenge. Finally, they wrap it up with a discuss…

We begin this episode with special guest Ariya Massoudi, man about town, voice of FSU women's basketball, and discuss where Florida State basketball fits in to the upcoming 2020-21 ACC basketball season. After he signs off, Matt and Michael pivot to Seminoles hoops, focusing on who might be in the starting five this season, and more importantly who…

It’s been a while since the last hoops podcast (APPLE // SPOTIFY), but real sports being on television has inspired the crew to talk some hoops. The void of sports has actually lured Michael into paying attention to the NBA, so we lead with some bubble talk - not the NCAA Tournament bubble where FSU used to find itself annually, but the NBA bubble …

Former FSU point guard David Nichols joins the pod for a wide ranging interview covering his time at Florida State. He also provides some great insight into upcoming NBA draft picks Devin Vassell and Patrick Williams. Prior to the interview, we talk about the State of Florida's new name, image, likeness law which will allow players to make money of…

Despite the off-season coming much sooner than expected, there is still plenty of FSU news to go around. Devin Vassell was the first to announce that he was going pro, and soon after that Patrick Williams joined in. Technically, Williams could return, though we don't expect that to happen. We talk about the career trajectories of those two, and com…

Instead of preparing for the ACC semifinals, we instead sit down to talk about the season that was. Was this FSU's best team in most of our lifetimes? How should this team be remembered? There is naturally a lot of discussion about Trent Forrest - the Seminole's senior leader - but we also discuss the differences between this year's team and last y…

The NCAA announced this afternoon that the NCAA Tournament will be going forward, but without fans in the stands. We try and digest the news, and discuss how it impacts the tournament going forward. News has broken since this recording that the ACC Tournament has followed suit, and beginning tomorrow only essential personnel will be in attendance. …

Florida State basketball is your ACC regular season champion. You'll be surprised that for the 4th straight year the ACC media picked Duke to win the regular season (they haven't won since 2010), and plucky FSU was a distant fifth. But the Seminoles finish a full game ahead and win the regular season outright. We talk a bit about the Boston College…

It's March, and when you're a basketball school that means there is a lot to talk about. We begin with FSU's thrilling win over Notre Dame. MJ Walker had a stretch to remember during the 2nd half, and then of course Trent Forrest came up huge down the stretch. Prior to that, Florida State couldn't stop Notre Dame. Some of that was just getting beat…

It was a frustrating 1-point loss to Clemson, and the game likely ended FSU's hopes for a national 1-seed for the NCAA Tournament. But the 'Noles still control their own destiny in the ACCT as a few hours after FSU losing in Littlejohn, Duke went to Virginia and lost. Now FSU and Louisville are atop the ACC, with Duke and Virginia one game back. Th…

Florida State has three games left in the season. Those three games are going to play a huge role in ACC and NCAA tournament seeding. First up is Clemson, and in this episode we catch people up on a Tigers team that we last saw in early December. Since then they've pulled off upsets of Duke and Louisville, and have only lost once at home in the new…

The second half blowout of Louisville had our heads spinning, and we spend plenty of time discussing how it all happened and who was responsible. Matt talks a bunch about the atmosphere, which was absolutely electric, and slots it into his 20+ years of experience at the Tuck. But were not here at Tomahawk Nation to only talk about all the great thi…

Florida State picked up an all-important Quad 1 win vs. NC State. After breaking down what went well (hello Malik Osborne and MJ Walker), what didn't (and why four guys played 20 minutes in the 2nd half), we do a deep dive on FSU's resume through a tournament filter. Want to know why Seton Hall (19-7) is competing with FSU for seeding? You get your…

There isn't a ton to talk about from the Pitt game as it played out pretty much exactly as predicted. The starters did struggle, and we discuss what that means moving forward. We also go a bit in depth on some of the stars from the bench. Patrick Williams, Dom Olejniczak, and Balsa Koprivica all had good games. This game coupled with Duke's unexpec…

It's always fun to beat Syracuse. Jim Boeheim was his usual jovial self in the post-game. Coach Hamilton remained tight-lipped about why Devin Vassell didn't play. And MJ Walker had a fat lip. Good game! We break down how Florida State was able to pull the win despite missing their leading scorer. We range over a bunch of topics including offensive…

The Orange are coming to town, with or without their best player Elijah Hughes. The junior hurt himself in warmups on Tuesday, and will likely be a gametime decision. Coach Boeheim can be as tight lipped about injuries as Leonard Hamilton, so unless Hughes doesn't travel with the team I am guessing that this is all we are going to hear. In his abse…

Well, that was no fun. We start with the elephant in the room - the refs - so feel to skip over if you want to get to what went well and what didn't (and no, we're not blaming the refs for the loss). Trent Forrest had a game which was easily one of the handful of best games of his impressive career. He passed Bob Sura on the career steals list and …

After watching Florida State drop 99 on Miami, Matt and Michael get together to discuss how good the team played, which pretty much encapsulated the entire roster. The first half defense was terrible, but Coach Hamilton was able to make a nice adjustment to which Miami had no answer. Always a fun rivalry game when it ends with the Green Vipers maki…

Road wins are important currency on NCAA Tournament resumes, and Florida State picked up a nice one at Virginia Tech on Saturday. On the podcast we break down what went well - aside from the obvious ‘Devin Vassell goes bananas’ - and what caused a bit of alarm. We also dive in to the radio broadcast which is pushing the narrative that FSU is strugg…

As the buzzer sounded in Virginia, Matt and Michael got together to discuss what went well and what didn't in the disappointing 61-56 loss to Virginia. After discussing the game they talk about general ineptitude of refs surrounding the block/charge call, and how it is the lowest of the low hanging fruit for the NCAA to improve college hoops for th…

The boys got together to talk about the upcoming Notre Dame game, which has the No. 5 FSU Seminoles playing in prime time in front of a sold out crowd. The Irish are one of the best teams in the nation at taking care of the ball, so we dive into how that could affect the game. The Irish also take and make a ton of 3-pointers. Prior to that discussi…

Take the win and go home. After a stressful 83-79 OT win, the Seminoles are now 16-2 (6-1) and tied atop the ACC. Matt and Michael got together post game to talk about what went well and what didn't. Devin Vassell, MJ Walker, and Anthony Polite got a lot of love, while FSU's clunky offensive performance and Coach Hamilton's management of the rotati…

Matt’s on the road. Michael is sick. Clemson is beating Duke. But we don’t let these things distract us. The No. 9 Florida State basketball team is getting ready to host the defending national champion Virginia Cavaliers, and we’ve got everything you need to know about the game. We break down Virginia’s famous pack line defense - what it is, and ho…

For episode seven of the Tomahawk Nation podcast, we started by breaking down the win at Wake Forest. After the Louisville game several things became clear that could keep Florida State’s season headed in the right direction, and we discuss which of those things the Seminoles did well vs. the Demon Deacons. Next up the co-hosts each drafted their A…

After taking a break to enjoy the holidays Matt and Michael jumped back into the studio to talk some basketball. You may not have noticed but Florida State is pretty good, and we took a few minutes to break down what happened in Louisville. No, FSU isn’t going to make 11 3s every game, but there are some great takeaways that the team can build on. …

Christmas eve is one of the only days during the season when there are no college basketball games to watch. So Michael and Matt got together to talk FSU's best lineup as well as who from the current roster will be playing in the NBA. Plus they hand out plenty of holiday gifts, debate the merits of ham (the food, not the coach), and drink a little …

The latest episode of the Tomahawk Nation podcast has Matt and Michael breaking down FSU's 66-60 comeback win against the South Florida Bulls in the Orange Bowl Classic. Matt had predicted a 65-59 win, so the two discuss how this game fit the mold of what he was expecting. They go in depth on USF's 11-0 2nd half run which included a technical foul …

Matt and Michael break down the predictable almost-blowout of North Florida, before launching into an analysis of Trent Forrest's year to date. Since this was recorded on national signing day (for football), they talk about the exciting basketball class, as well as all the new guys on the this year's team. The episode wraps up with a look ahead to …
