FSU winning the ACC, ranked #1 and favorites in the NC game ... Great for the ACC

No matter the outcome,
But let's bust the SEC dominance up a bit OK!!!!

Not about to tomahawk chop - but routing for the 'noles to bring the
Crystal football trophy back to ACC country. Thoughts?

Rick Monday... You Made a Great Play...

Next season would be the 3rd of the past 6 season of playing the defending national champs- great for the program!

I didn't realize this. Alabama twice and FSU next year. Add in the years where we played USCw and LSU, and that makes 5 of the past ten, right?

I suppose it is safe to say that the road to the MNC goes through Blacksburg.

Well... Alabama really only counts once because they're not in the title game this year.

...I only wish we weren't 0-5 in those games... Sigh.

Sounds right - rare stat for a non-SEC team

USC, 'Bama ('09), LSU (year of); 'Bama ('13) and potentially FSU (year after); if you count undefeated Auburn ('04). Just missed including tOSU next year (as a title game participant).

I would rarely say that I cheer for conference success; but given the run of dominance of the SEC in title games and the lack of marquee wins the ACC has had in recent bowl games, I will pull for FSU. If Auburn wins, the SEC-SEC-SEC chants will only grow louder going into the playoff system. But if FSU wins (and Clemson gets another SEC pelt in the Orange Bowl), then the argument can be made that the ACC is closing the gap. I think if the ACC lays an egg in the bowls and gets slapped around league-wide, it can only be harder to crack into the playoffs, especially in the early years.

The Dude Abides

And that is why I root for ACC.
The better the perception of the conference, the more fair the playoff selection will be for our top teams, including VT.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Yup. ACC FTW. I can't wait to hear the fans in Pasedena chanting A-C-C! A-C-C!
