[QUOTE="stinger78, post: 995976, member: 6771"] Lots of truth here, too. However, in that major bowl alignment where was the ACC supposed to go? There were no more major bowls. Also, the ACC was every bit as good as the old Big 8, which had only Nebraska. Finally, things change over time. Clemson’s emergence under Danny Ford in the late 70’s/80’s was huge. Adding GT and FSU in the 90’s helped the conference’s football profile, too. Adding Miami and VPI in the 00’s should have brought acceptance. That’s Clemson, Ga Tech, F$U, and Miami… from 1981 to 2001 those 4 teams held 9 MNC’s. Plus a dynamic VPI program. Still no respect. Why? The SECheat Narrative, based largely by HtH bolstered mainly by GT’s inability to beat UGA, was spun to show the ACC was a paper tiger. The bulk of inter conference games were GT/UGAg, FSU/UF, and CU/USCe. We were the ones who fell short there. [/QUOTE]
