FSU - a laughing stock again, lolo

Look, while they are in the ACC, I hope they do well. I want all ACC teams to do well. And I get where FSU is coming from for wanting to leave the ACC. Who doesn’t want a bigger payday? But, damn, they have whined and bitched so much. You got to back that up on the field. They failed. They deserve the ridicule.
 
GT was the better team; QB King was the difference.

FSU Administrators, alumni and fans believe they are entitled to more revenue and they see no pathway to obtaining it in the ACC. I expect the BIG10 to extend the Seminole nation an invitation once the ACC legal issue is resolved.

FSU even has tshirts saying the undefeated season. The lost their bowl gam by a lot.
Bunch of wannabe players.
 
I think it's clear that their success last season was mostly due to Jordan Travis at QB. He made them better than they should have been and his injury ended things for them.

This seasons QB is nothing like Travis and FSU is looking at 3 or more losses.

Based on what? Why on earth would the B1G do that? What suggests anything like that?
 
Just remember how obnoxious many of their fans were in Charlotte. The thought of those same fans spending small fortunes to travel to Dublin only to see the Noles lose to Tech just warms my heart.

The BIG wants access to the huge Florida TV market. I am no fan of FSU, but it is perceived as its best entry inside SEC territory.
 
FSU does not have the proper accreditation to get in the B1G
I recall many on this site who repeated that same misinformation about UL qualification to the ACC. It is all about money, and many of the historical perceptions have evaporated since the conference expansion. FSU doesn’t deserve anything, but it’s a mistake to minimize their attraction to the BIG, along with UNC and the Charlotte TV market.
 
The panhandle tv market isn’t as large as the rest of the state. Miami is the bigger tv market.
 
Florida and Miami are AAU accredited. Florida State is not. The Big 10+8 loves that AAU status no matter the money. Nebraska pulled a bait and switch with them.
 
FSU has a huge hurdle in terms of obtaining a favorable release from the ACC, but if somehow they work out an acceptable financial arrangement, they will accept the BIG invitation; something FSU has been negotiating for over a year.

BTW, check out FSU’s TV audience size, as it exceeds Regional attraction according to Network ratings.

Nope. If they take any Universities it will be UNC and UVA. They are a better match

For argument sake, the entire ACC could be candidates for expansion; however, as far as your suggestion that both UNC and UVA are more attractive than FSU; there is no evidence that either one is pursuing efforts to leave, or have been negotiating with the BIG.

Remember that if the ACC emerges successfully in this legal dispute, the conference could remain as a viable entity that would not only survive, but could attract others in its own expansion.

The state of North Carolina governing body of education passed a bill last year regarding conference realignment. The Bill stated that no North Carolina school can leave the ACC unless the other schools are included in a package deal I don’t know how binding that is.

After living in NC for almost 25 years I doubt UNC will go anywhere without NC State. I could be wrong and perhaps they still schedule them on the schedule. Its not UK vs U of L but it is as important in NC. Also have to consider the UNC/Duke rivalry in basketball.
