What a bunch of bitches! It comes from their head coach being so negative about getting left out of the PO. Last year Saban made a plea to be in it before the committee voted but accepted it after. The way he did it inspired our guys to play in the bowl game. Both Bryce Young (NFL draft #1) and Will Anderson (NFL draft #3) decided to play leading the rest of our guys to play as well. Then we kicked arse in the bowl game to show the committee they were wrong. Thats how you make a statement. Not the "I ain't playing" pussy way. And it all starts with the head coach.
Were Saban and Alabama undefeated last year dumbfrick?

If LSU was able to play K State with 38 scholarship players and a WR at qb, then FSU should be ok.

Bowl games were always just exhibition games; not sure why this is such a big deal now.

because most of the population is brainless and only does what others tell them to.
Somehow, for some reason, ESPN decided in the last 10 years that nothing besides the playoff matters. So that's what people think because it's what's been forcefed to them. In allllll the years of CFB prior to the playoffs, you still only had an extremely limited amount of games (or just 1, in the case of hte BCS era) that determined the champ but there were still a ton of bowl games that meant a great deal.

Florida State down 19 players?
UGA is down 24 players... 22 in the portal
I think FSU is up to 20 however most all of their premier players are out.

Alabama had 2 losses, AND the #! and #3 draft choices last year, and didn't have ANY players to bail out!
You're a real genius!

That's between the player and whoever is footing their NIL payments and whatever the terms of the agreement state

Lots of teams for a century can say this. 2023 FSU is not special in that respect.
Had they not opted out 70% their team then UGA would be a great gauge.
FSU doesn't want that gauge.

They're doing it out of spite.
Had they not been in the playoff conversation and this was a 1 loss FSU team getting to go to the Orange Bowl they wouldn't have this many opt outs.
Had they been at close to full strength and still get soundly beaten by UGA, no doubt would be left by even their biggest defenders that they didn't belong.
Here, they are taking that talking point away so they can say "we'll never know."
Or it's simply just business as usual these days. EVERY team has opt outs in these bowl games

To use someone’s name image and likeness in a commercial event?
Do you donate anything fungible to charity attached with a players Name Image Likeness? How would that work? The player met the terms of the contract by allowing their name image and or likeness to be used. This isn’t pay for play. These are not employees.

You missed the entire point. FSU has any opportunity to prove people wrong. Do it! Or otherwise STFU about being left out.

Couple of years ago LSU dressed 39 scholarship players for its bowl game. LSU DB/WR played the entire game at QB. He threw for 3-4 TDs.

Not Alabama. This phenomenon is just prevalent in the programs where players lack pride in their school.

Depends on how you set up the contract in the first place. Doesn’t my business get more exposure if my product endorser appears in a bowl game?
Pay X to use player’s name and image during the regular season
Pay +Y to use player’s name and image if he appears in a bowl.
Two contracting parties can agree to just about anything if it’s legal.
