FSU / Clemson smack talk begins
From the Orlando Sentinel - LINK.

Quote:Clemson, who's your ACC daddy? It's SEC-esque FSU
by Mike Bianchi SPORTS COMMENTARY
5:54 p.m. EDT, August 22, 2013

Who died and made Clemson king? Certainly not the Florida State Seminoles, who just happen to be the defending ACC Champions. At least that's how I remember it.

But you surely wouldn't know it by listening to all the talking heads and reading all of the preseason magazines. They all claim Climpson — the overrated, underachieving program that has won just one ACC title in the past two decades — is the team to beat in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Sports Illustrated, Lindy's, Athlon, The Sporting News, USA Today; they all have Climpson winning the ACC. "Offense wins in 2013, and the Tigers are the best in the ACC on that front," writes Lindy's College Football Preview. "Clemson runs ACC table."

This is an absolute insult to coach Jimbo Fisher's Seminoles, who last year won the league for the first time in seven seasons and served notice that they are ready to dominate the ACC like they did during Bobby Bowden's heyday in the 1990s.

You want to know why Florida State will likely win the ACC again this year . . . and next year . . . and the year after that? Because the Seminoles are not really an ACC team. They are a SEC team that happens to play in the ACC....

NO RESPECT.

This guy is a Gator honk so he has motivations behind his "pro" FSU articles.

Interesting. I wonder what he'll have to write about UF @ UM after the 'Canes smack down the Gators...

Bianchi? No fanbase in Florida respects that guy. Even UF fans hate him. All he does is write hit pieces. On a lot of message boards people curse you for linking his articles.

I just saw this today, though:

I wanted to read this till I saw Bianchi as the writer. He's good at stirring the pot no doubt.
