Whos No. 1 Frankly Florida States Jimbo Fisher cou

CHARLOTTE, N.C. coach didn't have to defend his team at the ACC Championship Game pre s conference Friday.He wasn't interested in answering questions about why TCU jumped Florida State in the . Miguel Rojas Jersey coach did that for him. Johnson let everybody know with his opening statement what the Yellow Jackets (10-2) are up against: "The No. 1 team in the country until somebody beats them."MORE: | | | Saturday's ACC title game kicks off at 8 p.m. ET in Charlotte."I don't know why they let anybody leapfrog Florida State," Johnson said. "To me, I think from a coaching standpoint, the bottom line is you try to win the games."Nobody's done that better than Florida State (12-0), the lone unbeaten in the FBS, the defending national champion and owner of a 28-game win streak.And yet in a subjective detractor's view, nobody's done it worse. Forget the off-field drama with this week's disciplinary hearing. The second-half comebacks. The six one-score victories. Eye-ball test. Style points.Gue s who blocks that out."I can't control what other people think," Fisher said. "All I Neil Walker Jersey can control is how we play and what we do. We just keep putting W's on the board. If we keep handling our busine s, everything will take care of itself."I can't spend time or waste time worrying about other people's opinions."Fisher's convictions seem unconventional, but it's the best defense mechanism against unconventional thinking. How does he motivate a team nobody thinks is No. 1?He celebrates the program or in his words "the organization" and the accomplishment of back-to-back undefeated regular Wei-Yin Chen Jersey seasons for the first time in school history.That led to what Fisher said was not only the best week of practice for Winston, but for the whole team. Did the playoff talk have something to do with that? "I'm sure that gives a little motivation," Fisher said, "but at the end of the day if that's what motivates you to be a champion then we haven't built this program on the right foundation that I think it's built on."That's reflected in Fisher's style, a mile-a-minute talker who looked the part in a gray suit.That's reflected in a team that continues to thrive while the rest of the nation roots for it to lose. That's reflected in Fisher's logistical order of winning a division championship, an ACC championship Cameron Maybin Jersey and a national championship in that order.For a team that enters Saturday looking for a third consecutive conference championship, Fisher isn't interested in what everybody else wants to hear. Florida State doesn't care what you think. That might just be the secret to the most-succe sful program in the country this side of Alabama. Fisher learned those le sons while coaching under Nick Saban at LSU. "Not that we're trying to brag, sometimes these rides of succe s you never enjoy," Fisher said. "They become a pain. I want them to this enjoy this. This is a great accomplishment. It's a magical time in their lives. "I want them to enjoy that not later, but I want them to enjoy it now."Does that sound like a team that's worried about the rankings? No, Trevor Richards Jersey it sounds like the No. 1 team in the country.At least Johnson and Georgia Tech know what they are up against.
