Garnet and Old

📖 The 2025 Seminole Saga continues…

After a grim chapter in Charlottesville, the Noles are 3–1 and standing at a turning point in the story. Will the loss to Virginia be just a plot twist — or a crucial stepping stone toward an EPIC FSU story arc?

In this episode of Garnet & Old, we 🔄 flip the page on the 2025 season and set our sights on Chapter 5 — the legendary rivalry with Miami. It’s under the lights. It’s at Doak. And it might just be the chapter that rewrites the narrative.

We’re joined by Miami and College Football content creator @RockAndRant to preview the matchup, trade jabs, and argue which team’s season is about to take a hard left turn.

🎶 Here’s the story… of a team from Tally. 🎶

FSU is 2 games into the 2025 season, and with the bye week giving us a breather, it’s time to call a 🌼 groovy FAMILY meeting. The Bye Week Bunch is here — Vince, Ryan, Parker Rawlin (Championship Analytics), Doug Rohan (our resident legal eagle), Jeremy Ivans (Rock and Nole), and George Georgiades (Renegade Report) — all seated around the dinner table to sort through the chaos.

We’re breaking down:
- Surprises from the first two games (good and bad🗿).
- Updated / New Expectations — are we more confident, more nervous, or just more confused?
- The Road Ahead — what we’re watching for in the coming weeks and what's possible.

It’s part therapy session, part hype train, part roast of our own bad takes.

Don't give us the "something suddenly came up" nonsense ... grab your popcorn and join us for the ultimate Bye Week Roundtable.

It’s a tale of two camps in Tallahassee — the Build Up and the Blow Up.

👷Build Up: The preseason AP Poll drops… and the Noles are hanging out in “Also Receiving Votes” land. With CULTURE being built, is this right where we want to be?

💣Blow Up: Safety Conrad Hussey’s altercation with a coach leads to his exit from the team. What does this mean for Norvell’s culture and the locker room?

🔮Predictions: With the season looming, we’re locking in our official 2025 record predictions (and probably roasting Ryan’s 12-0 dreams). AND, GOOD NEWS...you get to participate as well!

🎖️SPECIAL GUEST Jeremy Ivans from the Rock & Nole YouTube channel joins the party to break it all down.

FSU’s first scrimmage of 2025 is in the books and we’ve got ALL the takes: who popped, who flopped, and why Ryan thinks this team is “either winning it all or going 6–6” based on one slant route.

But wait — ESPN just announced their brand-new streaming service is coming on August 21, and shocker… it ain't cheap. Is this the end of cable as we know it or just The Mouse figuring out how to charge us twice for the same game?

PLUS — Jimbo Fisher sits down with FSU legend Freddie Stevenson, and the tea is scalding. Stories, shade, and the kind of behind-the-scenes moments that’ll have you texting your old position coach.

Segments:
1️⃣ Camp Chaos & Scrimmage Sparks – Early depth chart thoughts and practice 
2️⃣ The ESPN Scamcast – Why this “new” service feels like buying your own seat on your own couch.
3️⃣ Jimbo & Freddie – Legacy talk, locker room memories, and some emotional gut punches.
