The non-mobile link: http://espn.go.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/50721/fsu-wins-in-unconvincing-fashion
And a taste of the article...
Memo to Florida State fans who want to jump in celebration of the 31-10 Discover Orange Bowl win against Northern Illinois: Don’t jump too high, you might hit your head on Florida State’s ceiling.
Because this is it.
This is what you get with back-to-back top-10 recruiting classes, with a roster bursting at the seams with talent, size, speed and depth, and a defense worthy of a national title. You get a flat, disjointed offensive showing against the MAC champs. You get the same inconsistent effort against a lesser opponent that became the trademark of this year's ACC champs. You get a heart attack in the third quarter when it’s 17-10 and Northern Illinois is driving with all of the momentum after a predictable onside kick...

They beat a 6-6 GT in the title game, a game that was very close down to the end. I wouldn't say that's much to brag about.

They made it to the dance and won. We didn't. If we would have played we would be have accepted the ACC Championship trophy and the bowls of oranges that come with winning the Orange Bowl. My focus on getting my Canes to the dance next year. If we play a 6-6 team and a MAC team when we get there I dont care. My job is to just get to the dance not worry about how somebody else makes it in.

Yeah, but what do we have to brag about? DUKE JOHNSON???? That is what canes' fans have to hang our future on.
if you ever played sport, you would know that an ugly win is better that a pretty loss. its like saying the Heat championship is tainted because it was not a 'full season'. they beat who they were supposed ans won what they did. this thread makes not sense whatsoever.
We talk about neing hated, but no we hating on FSU and they won. We lost to Virginia, and could not stop Virginia, NC State, Duke, GT, etc. I would rather have FSU defense that Our offenense, because thats how you win championships. the last time i check Duke johnson is not lined up at DT, DE or LB. c'mon man stop already.

No disrespect, but I would like to start with an ACC Champ before I laugh at them.

Say what you want, they won the acc title. Doesn't matter if they beat bay high school to get it. That has been our goal for the last 8 years and they did it. They won the orange bowl. Doesn't matter if they played 1st baptist church league county champs. They won a bcs bowl game.
It's easy to see the writing on the wall. They are definitely on the decline. They are going to loss a lot and they are ready to implode. They will never win with jimbo as he is not respected by his players. You can try to take away or belittle those accomplishments if you want, but if we played wake in the acc title game and Toledo in the orange bowl I would still be proud of those accomplishments.
