FSU in it's 31 years in the ACC (UPDATED)

Lately, I have read comments re: FSU that it wasn't consistent in the ACC and didn't win enough.  Interesting takes but thought I would add some information to provide context to those claims.






FSU has been in the ACC 31 years. In that time:

  • 3 National Titles
  • 3 Heisman Trophies
  • 6 National Title Game Appearances
  • 1 Playoff Appearance
  • 15 ACC Championships (48% of it's seasons finish as ACC Champ)
  • 28 Bowls with 18 and 10 Bowl Record (64% Bowl win %)
  • 4 Orange Bowl Victories
  • 3 Sugar Bowl Victories
  • 17 10 win plus seasons (54% of it's seasons are 10 win plus)
  • 11 AP Top 5 seasons (35% of it's seasons finish in AP Top 5)
  • 23 AP Top 25 Seasons (74% of it's seasons finish in AP Top 25)
  • Season Per Season Avg 9.26 Wins 3.42 Losses for 72.84% Winning Percentage
  • ACC Per Season Avg 5.90 Wins 2.10 Losses for 73.79% Winning Percentage


ACC schools should be grateful to Florida State, Clemson for carrying conference

Here are the rest of the week totals that ACC teams have been ranked in the Top 10 since 1992:

FSU 253.

Clemson 135.

Virginia Tech 31.

Miami 30.

North Carolina 26.

Georgia Tech 18.

Louisville 10.

Virginia 9.

Boston College 7.

North Carolina State 2.

Wake Forest 2.

Duke 0.

Pitt 0.

Syracuse 0.

Notre Dame doesn’t count.

TOTALS OF ALL NON FSU SCHOOL:  270

TOTALS OF ALL NON FSU/CLEMSON SCHOOLS:  135

So, look at those numbers again. Like really, really look at them. Florida State has now been ranked in the Top 10 for 253 weeks! The rest of the ACC combined, excluding Clemson, has been ranked a grand total of 135 times.

If you add Clemson to the mix, these two programs represent 74 percent of all Top 10 rankings the conference has had over the last 31 years.

Florida State has been ranked in the Top 5 176 times since 1992. Clemson has been ranked in the Top 5 107 times. The rest of the conference? 36. And 10 of those were Virginia Tech back in 2005.

So, let’s do that math real quick. Florida State and Clemson represent 88 percent of all Top 5 rankings in the conference since 1992. Florida State, by itself, is responsible for 55 percent of all Top 5 rankings in the ACC over the last three decades.

And, of course, Florida State has been ranked No. 1 57 times since 1992. That represents 71 percent of all No. 1 rankings in the ACC. And if you take away Clemson’s 23, it represents all of them!

Over the past three decades, no other program has been ranked No. 1 in this conference beside these two powers. And only four — North Carolina, Virginia Tech, Louisville and Miami — have been ranked in the Top 5 at all.
