So much about perception and timing....Maryland is 4-0 (beating nobody) going into FSU and get's killed...Props to FSU. Maryland is now 5-3 and will be lucky to get that next win to be bowl eligable. We barely get by 1-4 UNC, and everyone thinks we suck. UNC kills BC this past week and will likely win out to go 7-5. Flip there schedule, and they could very well have been 5-0 when we played.....Also, Wake has been playing really well, including crushing that same Maryland team that FSU got so much credit for killing.
Subjective nature of rankings.

the worst part of this whole perception thing is that LSU has been winning ugly on it's way to championships for years and always was given the benefit of the doubt because they won big games ugly too.
this isn't a beauty pageant it's a fight. If this game comes down to the last 3 minutes and we have the ball CANES WIN...**** EM!
