Paul Finebaum Suggests Certain ACC Fanbase Needs To Have A Beer, Chill Out

SEC Network host Paul Finebaum is certainly no friend of ACC fans and has been an enemy in ACC country, especially after he's gone in on Dabo Swinney and mocked Florida State's CFP omission.
Now, he's gone and fired another arrow at the ACC during his quick pit stop on the radio show "McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning" on Monday. While discussing the upcoming Florida State vs. Georgia Tech game headlining Week 0, Finebaum unearthed some strong feelings for the FSU fans.
Finebaum had said recently that he believes Florida State is the most likely AP preseason top-10 team to drop out of the rankings entirely by the end of the year. Of course, Seminole fans were ready to have his head on a stake over that comment, so now, Finebaum is firing back again.
"The pettiness of the Florida State fans never ceases to amaze me," Finebaum said. "Every year I try to decide who has the most thin-skinned, insecure fanbase in the country. Right now, at least going into Week 0, it's Florida State."
The taunting didn't end there, as Finebaum went on, asking Seminole fans to enjoy a pint when they're out in Ireland this weekend to take the edge off.
"I hope their fans enjoy the trip to Dublin," he said. "Maybe have a couple of pops of that Irish brew, because they need to chill out."
Those FSU fans must have really bothered Paul Finebaum, because he let them have it.
"I mean, this fanbase — after that pathetic performance this last year of the crying and the Twitter attacking of anyone in the media that dared to go against them — they still haven't recovered," he scolded of the 'Noles.
After these comments, it doesn't seem that relations between the Paul Finebaum Show and fans of Florida State or the ACC at large will be improving any time soon.
