I grant you that they played a tougher schedule in those day than they do today, but it wasn't in the ACC. In their first 10 years in the league Florida State lost 4 conference games. they didn't lose 2 ACC games in a single season until their 10th season in the conference. They went unbeaten 7 of their first 10 ACC seasons. They were so far and away above everyone else in that league at the time it was crazy. Seems to be heading back that way again.
Sooo? FSU was just better...They also beat any comers and didn't lose a bowl game for 14 years...bring Ohio State, Nebraska..down they went. Are you also saying that because FSU didn't lose a bowl game in 14 seasons, that the other conferences best were just weak?
You are ignoring that the ACC had as many ranked teams in many years of the 90's as did the Big ten...go back and look at my chart....Plenty of ranked teams from the ACC...certainly more then Ohio stae has played this year...
