There’s so much to be thankful for this year, our political situation not being one of them. However, at least we have our health, our families, and the Florida State Seminoles. That time of the year has come again, but this time, I’m not talking about Thanksgiving. I’m talking about UF hate week. This is a time for all past, present, and future Seminoles to stand together and be thankful for the fact that we are fortunate enough not to wear the horrid colors that are orange and blue. In honor of Thanksgiving, and the team we love to hate, here’s a list of what to be thankful for as Seminoles.

1. We're not Canes

We can have music at our tailgates, we have a stadium on our campus, and our fan base actually attended FSU. Need I say more?

2. Dalvin Cook

You mean the Nation’s top running back who just broke the record for most rushing yards? The one who cannot be stopped? The backbone of all things FSU?

3. Jimbo Fisher

Never leave us. I beg of you. The nickname “Jimbeaux” isn’t even that cool.

4. The corndog stand outside of Standard

The man who runs that stand should be given a key to the city.

5. And free hotdogs outside the church on Thursdays

They don’t limit you to just one either…

6. A nightlife

There’s a reason why everyone comes to Tally for a big game day, Halloween, St. Patrick’s Day, birthdays, etc. You get my point. We’re thankful to have it year around. Oh, and don’t forget to tip your bartenders.

7. Tradition

Renegade and Osceola at the beginning of every home game is unlike any other college football tradition. Besides that, we have the Tomahawk chop

8. Jameis Winston

Our former quarterback actually succeeded after his time at FSU and went on to be the QB for Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Us Noles are just thankful he didn’t go to the Cleveland Browns just to end his football career to become a baseball player.

9. The "Sod Cemetery"

Personally, I think this is the coolest thing about our FSU football team. Any UM, UF, or game that we win where we are considered underdogs, we cut out a piece of turf and bury it in our practice field with a tombstone commemorating our win. Just goes as a reminder of how good we are.

10. We're not Gators

The number one thing to be thankful for this year, and every year at that, is that we’re not Gators. All I can say is "Go Noles".
