ok...he gets paid to be a D@#$head<mailto:D@#$head>. I get it. Pulease. Just because the SEC east is weak THIS year is no reason to spout garbage about the ACC like they are some sort of dynasty. I've had enough of this BS.

Who's next? TALLAHASSEE — Two down for the Gator coach killer, with another one on deck. How many more University of Florida football coaches will the dynamic, dynastic Jimbo Fisher dispose of in a career that is destined to become legendary if he stays at Florida State long enough? When the iconic Bobby Bowden was at FSU, he used to number all of the UF coaches who either quit or got fired during his illustrious career in Tallahassee, starting with "One" (Doug Dickey) and ending with "Eight" (Urban Meyer). If you're scoring at home, Jimbo has already run two coaches out of Gainesville and is about to embark on No. 3. Will Muschamp ended his underwhelming four-year tenure as Florida's coach with Saturday's 24-19 loss to Jimbo's undefeated Seminoles, just as Meyer's flagging UF coaching tenure came to a close in Tallahassee back in 2010. It was at the end of Fisher's first season as FSU's head coach when his Seminoles so decisively destroyed Meyer's Gators that the Urbanator quit a few days after the 31-7 thrashing to go spend more time with his ESPN family. Even though it was FSU's first victory over Florida in six years, it turned out to be a symbolic coup, with Fisher overthrowing Meyer to become the new king of college football in the Sunshine State. Meyer acknowledged after the loss to FSU that his UF program was broken, and he vowed to fix it. Instead, he bolted and left Jimbo the keys to the state. Now, Jimbo is cruising down Florida's Turnpike with the pedal to the metal while the Gators and the Hurricanes are broken down on the side of the road with smoke coming out from under their hoods. Four years and two coaches later, the Gators are still broken, and the Seminoles are back to where they were in Bowden's heyday. Jimbo hasn't lost a game in two years, finished his second consecutive undefeated regular season Saturday and is three victories away from a second consecutive national championship. And, puh-leeze, all of you delusional SEC snobs. Will you shut up about how the Seminoles aren't winning games impressively enough and how their strength of schedule isn't powerful enough and how their conference isn't strong enough? Did you see what the ACC did to the big, bad SEC during rivalry weekend? If not, let me remind you: FSU 24, Florida 19 Clemson 35, South Carolina 17 Georgia Tech 30, Georgia 24 Louisville 44, Kentucky 40 "I'm very proud of the ACC," said Jimbo, who's now 6-1 against the SEC. "I keep telling people this is a heck of a league, but it doesn't get credit because of opinions." Let's also not forget that the Seminoles have won a national-best 28 straight games, including last year's national-championship victory over SEC champion Auburn. Until somebody figures out a way to beat the Seminoles, it's time to start treating this team with respect and reverence instead of reluctance and ridicule. I don't care if the Seminoles scraped by and barely beat a mediocre Gator team with a fired coach. I don't care that Jameis Winston threw four interceptions Saturday and the Seminoles scored only three points in the second half. I don't care that the Seminoles barely beat a handful of other mediocre teams such as Boston College, Miami and Notre Dame earlier this season. Do you know how hard is to win EVERY game — week in and week out — for TWOstraight seasons? Do you know how hard it is to keep finding ways to pull out victories when you have everything to lose and your opponent has nothing to lose? "It's much tougher [the second year] because of how much people work on you in the offseason, how much they shoot for you, how much they lay their ears back and come after you," Fisher said. "At times, success breeds complacency, but we've done a really good job as a team of not being complacent and learning to battle and fight and scratch and claw." And, now, Jimbo Fisher is preparing his Seminoles for a third straight ACC Championship Game, while the Gators are preparing to hire yet another coach. Who will it be? How long will he last? Two down for the SEC dragon slayer and Gator coach killer; how many more to go? [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. Follow him on Twitter @BianchiWrites.
