FSU fans are football guys...not latte slurping biffs paging through lacrosse or basketball magazines while their gridiron squad attempts to make a play that will get them to look up for a moment and politely clap.
I wouldn't qualify us as anxious...more like pissed off.
An elite football school playing in a basketball conference....and when football carries the weight for media dollars, we have too many pennyweights.
Virginia has not won even 17% of their games with FSU.
North Carolina has not won even 14% of their games...
Syracuse is looking for their first ACC win against FSU as is Pitt
BC looks damn good in comparison...
That's too bad. Life sucks sometimes. Maryland did their part to help FSU's cause (at least as you and others with unfortunate narrow focus see it). I wouldn't count on Virginia, UNC, Syracuse, Pitt, Wake Forest, leaving any time soon, unless the conference completely collapses (which I don't see happening any time soon, if at all).
If FSU really only cares about football, they should simply drop all other sports and become independent. Or better yet, leave the NCAA and join a pro or semi-pro league. Since that is not happening, perhaps FSU can take up the challenge and be more competitive in other sports. Perhaps they would have had respectable records in other sports against Maryland, and the other current teams in the ACC that you are pissed at.
I do understand that football somehow still drives the bus. I find it increasingly boring, despite the "gridiron squad attempts to make a play." Seriously, football is still fine, but there is more out there.
