Alabama-Florida State game

Recommended Posts

Lets see, since the 98 Fiesta Bowl, how many BCS games has FSU played in? The answer is 5. How many has Tennessee played in? The answer is 1 back in 99. FSU has not had a losing season in that period, Tennessee has. SO yeah, look in the mirror before you talk.

Florida State also plays in a mid-major football conference.

Even still, FSU managed to lose at home to Wake Forest by 30 points. The "athletic school" got crushed by the "academics school" on their own field.

WHAMMMMY!!!

Whammy nothin!

Wake went on to the Orange bowl that year. They finished the season with three losses including the Orange bowl. Tennessee lost to a 5-6 Vandy team at home in 2005 and Georgia lost to a 4-8 Vandy team at home in 2006. Nice try... no, not really.

BTW, as for FSU playing in a "mid major", Tenneessee is 1-2 against the ACC since 99. The only win was a 23-6 win against Duke.

First off, someone already brought up Vandy. Atleast Wake played in the Orange Bowl. Second, FSU, UT, and UGA has one common opponent in Florida. FSU had had success lately, more so than UT. Do I need to point out UGA's record against that team in reacent years?

Wake Forest played in the Orange Bowl because some ACC team had to fill that void. The ACC, bluntly put, is a dreadful football conference. Their top teams are inconsistent, and their bottom teams are dreadful.

In the SEC, the talent level is so much higher. There is no easy opponent in the SEC (Mississippi State won at Auburn, Vandy has a league win, and Ole Miss fell to the defending SEC and National Champions by 6).

They also went 2-3 against ranked opponents, and only escaped the Non-Conference schedule unscathed because they played such "difficult" foes as Syracuse, Connecticut, Liberty, and Mississippi. They barely beat Duke.

Since 1998 (not including the 2007 season), SEC teams are 34-34 against current ACC teams. If the ACC is a dreadful football conference, what does that make the SEC?

If you noticed in that link, the author mentioned:

NOTE: in the ACC data, I?m including all the teams that are currently in the ACC.

Sure, conference affiliation doesn't change the result, but if they're going to make one stipulation to make their point, stick to it. Miami wasn't a member of the ACC when they beat Florida twice and beat Tennessee, Boston College wasn't a member of the ACC when they beat Georgia in the Music City Bowl...so to make this more accurate, the SEC's been given at least 4 losses to teams they lost to that weren't part of the ACC at the time of the game.

As for Georgia, they've taken care of their ACC opponents:

6-3 vs. Georgia Tech

2-0 vs. Clemson

1-0 vs. Virginia Tech

1-0 vs. Florida State

2-0 vs. Virginia

Yeah, I noted that in my post.

I can certainly appreciate accuracy. Running the SEC Aggregate Conference Record 1998-2006 produces an adjusted record of 34-26 against ACC teams. That bumps the SEC's winning percentage against this dreadful, mid-major football conference from 50% to 56.7%.

Man, that powerful SEC team sure did show that mid major team from Florida what was up. Is this the same team Georgia had to go to overtime with? Sure hate to see what will happen to Tennessee. That SEC sure is scary. BTW, If you think last year's Vandy team that beat Georgia in Athens would have been 10-2 on Wake's 2006 schedule then you need help.

Glad to see that the FSU Bama thread is becoming a talk :censored: about Wake thread to you. FSU beat them, by the way. And Maryland beat everyone's favorite new powerhouse, Rutgers. The same Maryland team who got beat the week before by, you guessed it, the Demon Deacons.

Well, Nebraska did beat Wake as well this year... :P
