Everyone knows talking trash can get you in some hot water. Not only does it cause a stir, but failing to back it up could lead to plenty of criticism.
But turning that trash talk from a prediction to a spoiler? That's some legendary stuff.
It only took one game for Thomas Castellanos to cement himself in Florida State lore. He couldn't be stopped by Alabama in the 31-17 upset the Seminoles quarterback said would happen two months ago.
There was a collective groan when Castellanos declared Alabama didn't "have Nick Saban to save them" and "I just don’t see them stopping me.” It was bulletin board material for the Crimson Tide. Even more, Castellanos doubled-down on his words. You wouldn't blame anyone for expecting a blowout Alabama win and Castellanos to become the meme of the season.
Instead, Castellanos proved Alabama needed Saban to stop him from running for a game-high 78 yards and a touchdown along with 152 yards in the air on just 14 attempts, leading a physical domination over a supposed College Football Playoff contender.
