Why so much love for Florida St.

IMO having seen many games in the ACC the conference is awful and to think experts give them a No.1 ranking is a stretch. I know being undefeated goes a very long way and one good blow out win over a average Clemson team but number 1 ? I am neither a supporter or a lover of the SEC. or the Big 10 or the Pac12 but I can say with complete confidence that FSU in the SEC. would have 3-4 losses-Big10 three losses- Pac12 3 losses. So this leaves me with who do I think is the best in the country, if anyone cares?? Who will play for the national championship?? Best Alabama close Missouri. Who plays each other it will be MISSOURI vs BAMA.
OK why because Mich. St. will beat OhioSt.- Missouri will beat Auburn- Duke will beat FSU( because by Sat. Winston will be in jail) and the whole Seminole nation is thrown into complete chaos. Again all just MO.

Really? You might just be saying "complete confidence" for affect, but that statement is beyond absurd.
If you said one loss I could handle that opinion, but you cannot say 3-4 losses and think you'll be taken seriously. Most compensated power ratings have them as best team in the country.
I will agree with you on one thing, the ACC was very bad this year in football.
They would split with the SoCal schools.
If they were lucky they would split with the Arizona schools.
They would get rolled by Oregon.
They would get smothered by Stanford.
They are in a basketball conference beating up on nobody's. They might have a great bowl and win the BCS but no way in my opinion they are the best team in the country.
Just my opinion.
I think FSU would be a double digit favorite over every one of the teams you mentioned except Oregon on a neutral field. Stanford & ASU could be potentially less than 10, but it'd be close.
C'mon Kahuna, you have them losing to Arizona and UCLA? Really?
the same Stanford team that just beat the high powered irish by 7 at home? you're being absurd and I thought you'd come around BK ??
If you think FSU would lose two or three times if they played in the SEC, than you must think that Mizzouri and Auburn are both better teams since they only lost one game apiece. S Carolina lost twice this year, FSU is a much better team than they are. If the Noles played in the SEC or the Pac 12, at most they would have one loss.
If you have any team just beat everybody up, they look like world beaters also. Everyone would have drank the Fresno State koolaid also had they not stumbled. When you are in a conference where the other teams have athletes as well, then you get to measure a team. FSU has beat no one, just rolled over. How many times can you schedule Idaho for gosh sake? Don't think that is accurate, find another conference game where 1 team was favored by over 4 td's ever in a conference title game ! Horribly week conference and schedule, let's see what happens when they get punched in the mouth by a team with atleast a few descent players.
My reasoning for all of this is, I think the Pac12 was fabulous this year (best I have seen in a long time) not just 1 or 2 teams good, lots and lots of quality teams. The teams I mentioned as well as Washington and even Oregon State were quality teams this year. They were busy beating each other up, so none of them are playing for the top prize.
Give me Oregon, ASU and Stanford +10 , all day long. Just let me know my limit ! lol
Newc, I told Stanford to keep the Notre Dame close as you had released +14 and needed the victory. You are welcome.
Kane, I do think ASU could get them, maybe the UCLA is a stretch.
I am repeating myself , but who have they beat ? Have they even had to play starters in the 2nd half ? They kept Florida in it for a while, which is amazing as Florida could not beat Colorado or CAL.
I don't know, ofcourse I could be way off but in my eye test I don't see greatness at all. I am looking forward to taking DD with Missouri in the BCS. LOL
#BREAKING: Investigation is complete. State Attorney's Office will be announcing their decision at 2pm tomorrow. #JameisWinston
Bye Bye #FSU
Huh ? Just stating fact, I don't hate anyone, I hope the guy is not guilty. But I doubt you need a press conference to say we don't have enough evidence.
Don't know if you were serious in your above post or not, but if you were deep breathe Newc ! Avoid sharp objects.
Oddsmakers are currently projecting the FSU/OSU line to be FSU -9.5 to -10.5, yet FSU would lose 3 or 4 games in OSU's conference? The same conference that OSU ran during the regular season? And you can say this with complete confidence? LOL
With regards to the Pac 12, I personally think the Pac 12 is overrated. A couple teams beat some big 10 teams (who doesn't?), then they've all beaten each other. Not sure Oregon would roll anybody the way they have been playing.
I think any team with a pulse on offense would probably say otherwise. Ask Eastern Washington
Here's a little fact I saw yesterday but I didn't validate. Clemson has 3 wins in the last 7 years against end of the year top 25 teams.
Wow, really? Can anyone verify? I am assuming this doesn't include this year (georgia)
