Wouldn’t including a team like FSU be *better* for the ratings? I thought the whole thing was “Bama fatigue” ruining the sport and ratings?

Including a team with a 3rd string QB would be bad for ratings… also, this will be the first time Bama and Michigan have played with their current big brand coaches. It will be a big watch.

I'll eat my crow, I didn't think the gumps would win and I don't think they should have been put in over FSU.

But as far as network ratings, FSU fans travel, they have a big fanbase throughout Florida and the southeast, and they have the "Cinderella" season/adversity angle. I don't think it was a ratings call. But now that crow is eaten, FSU got fricked over in major fashion and I hope Michigan steps up. We will see.

Larger team playoff cant get here fast enough.
