So tired of this conference BS!

Really sick of all the conference talk by "the experts". It's literally all that is talked and written about now. Read an article this morning on ESPN about how FSU saved the ACC by winning last night. Bc if Clemson had won then the ACC would not have gotten into the playoffs.
http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/blogpost?blogname=acc&id=74847
First of all, your telling me that if Clemson had won, and then won every other game this year, plus ACC championship then we would have been left out? Probably not.
Second, who gives a shiat? I only care about Clemson football! I hope FSU loses every other game this year. I despise them, and don't need any favors for the ACC. I hope Florida destroys them this year, I don't care that it's an SEC team beating an ACC team.
Everywhere I turn ESPN is showing W/L records of the Big10 or any other power 5 vs the competition. Why can't we just get back to routing for our team!
I saw a man at the Greenville zoo yesterday with 2 Alabama flags on one side of his car, and 2 UGA flags on the other. Enough said!
Go Tigers! I could care less about the rest of the ACC.

We played fsu to overtime and then lost. He said it would hurt the conference for Clemson to win. I miss the days before all this conference crap started. I miss pulling against a FSU with every fiber of my being. Now I have to want fsu to win out just because I don't want to hear about the explicative sec

There are few teams I would pull for FSU to beat. ACC or not, they are classless thugs.

I totally agree. Teams make individual accomplishments and championships.

Grouping teams collectively is garbage. It does not fully capture how woeful some of the bottom feeders are because they only focus on the elite teams. But the main point is only one team wins a title, not a conference. Only one team wins a conference title. Its not merely a win for every team involved in a conference. Notice how niners and Seahawks fans don't chant "NFC WEST! NFC West!" Because it is a ridiculous notion shared only by those SEC knuckleheads who piggyback off of other teams accomplishments.

..stuff back in the 70s and most of the 80's. I think it's just an artifact of the CFB culture as it now exists.....

Really, I think it came about by members of the secheat who never have amounted to squat, but want to pretend they are just as important as the AL's, AU's, LSU's of the world. Even sadder is how the media has fallen for it, too.

FSU will probably win the rest of their games, or a much better chance than us. An undefeated FSU will make the playoff. Heck a one loss FSU team should make it. We probably make it with one loss, but no way we make it with two losses. I think we lose at least one more, win or lose to FSU.
If we had won Saturday and lose one more to coots or BC or GT, it'd be awful tough to make the playoff if we win the ACC and go 11-2.

I agree 100%. I can't stand FSU, never liked them, never will. It boiled my blood last week to hear Dabo say he was pulling for FSU in the national championship and "chopping" with both arms...yuck! I just pull for 2 teams Clemson and whoever is playing The coots. It keeps things simple.
