How did beating up the old Big East and ACC respectively, hurt them?

They always started the season top 5, played each other early and the loser wouldn't drop that far then work back up the polls by knocking off tin cans (they were SEC before SEC was cool).
They became less competitive. Since they joined the ACC they've won 1 championship. Of course, OSU wrecked Miami's program before that, so we have that going for us. Which is nice.

I see.

I'm not sure that's 100% attributable to being part of a conference though. I think all the things that had to go right for such small, new players to compete with the established guys, started to go wrong. Miami kept being put on probation, Bowden got old and died, other schools came in an recruited Florida better etc etc etc.

Ol Number 6 in full effect. Think Locksley is sending a message to VaTech and the DMV area that he's going to be the man in that area for a while. He looks like he tied a brick to the accelerator and is now dancing around in the back of the truck as its hauling ass down the field
