FSU Football has been the best overall team in the ACC since they joined in the early 90’s. Why were they left out of the ACC’s preseason video?
FSU football is the popular team in the ACC and the TV ratings back up that statement.
They routinely draw the highest ratings for the conference, and are the ACC team with the biggest national brand.
So how in the world were they left out of a video in which the ACC posted on social media counting down the days until football season?
Of course FSU fans and players took notice and let it be known on Twitter. Check out the video out below if you haven’t seen it already:

So we get a glimpse of Jimbo and that's it? Maybe it's time for us to move to a new conference. FSU brings $$$$ to you...are you kidding me?

Thoughts
That last tweet is the million dollar question. A Jimbo Fisher handshake with Miami coach Mark Richt, and that’s pretty much it in a 51 second video?
Come on ACC, you have to do better. I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised with how the ACC has treated the ‘Noles over the years.

Horrible officiating, penalizing FSU for being great and other nonsense. As one of the FSU fans said, it’s time to show and prove once again when the season comes about.
