Tommy Castellanos' Bold Statement: 'Nick Can't Save Them' Shirts Take Over After FSU's Victory Over Alabama

Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos turns his bold prediction into reality, selling 'Nick Can't Save Them' shirts after FSU's upset win over Alabama.

After leading the Florida State Seminoles to a stunning 31-17 victory over the No. 8 Alabama Crimson Tide, quarterback Tommy Castellanos wasted no time capitalizing on his viral comments about Alabama's legendary head coach, Nick Saban. Castellanos, who had confidently stated earlier in the summer that Saban couldn't save the Tide from their Week 1 matchup, proved his words true on the field.

The Game-Changing Performance

Castellanos was a force to be reckoned with, accounting for 230 yards and a crucial rushing touchdown. His performance not only secured the win but also silenced any doubters who questioned his bold pre-game statements.

The Merchandise Drop

On Sunday, Castellanos launched a new collection on his website, featuring shirts and hoodies emblazoned with the phrase "Nick Can't Save Them" and the final score, "31-17," prominently displayed. The collection, aptly named the "31-17 Collection," also includes apparel with the slogan "Stand On What I Said," further emphasizing Castellanos' unwavering confidence in his team.

Castellanos' Post-Game Comments

"We stand on what I said," Castellanos remarked during a post-game interview. "I said what I said, and we stand on that. I don't mean no disrespect to none of those guys at Alabama or anything like that. I have confidence in my guys and the work we've been putting in and preparing, and the preparation we've been putting together. That's all that was. No disrespect to those guys, but we stand on what I said."

Looking Ahead

With the victory over Alabama, Florida State has set a strong tone for the season. The Seminoles will host the East Texas A&M Lions in Week 2, and fans are eager to see if Castellanos can continue his impressive form.

Final Thoughts

Tommy Castellanos' boldness both on and off the field has made him a standout figure in the NCAAF. His ability to back up his words with action has not only endeared him to Seminoles fans but also cemented his place as one of the most talked-about players this season.
