He should demand a new ACC commissioner. FSU would have been in if the dumbass alliance didn't vote against starting the 12 team playoff this year.

Well...... Just so you know. These are federally funded institutions we are talking about. So, Congress does have say over their administration along with the states that fund them as well. Surely they knew this was a possible outcome?

Just so we know, are you in support of action by the Congress in this matter?

No, the government has nothing to do or say about a playoff selection.

You won't find anyone that hates gov't much more than me. With that said, every major university is funded with state and federal money. These games generate millions of dollars in revenue to these public institutions. Surely they realized that these type shenanigan's were going to illicit this level of scrutiny?

FSU signed the contract to participate in the process. Or rather the ACC did on their behalf.

The criteria that FSU and ACC agreed to was followed.

This isn't complicated.

1-loss on a difficult schedule > undefeated on a weaker schedule

He is only grandstanding and he knows it. How about you focus on a real issue Rick?

Isn't this the guy who defrauded Medicare while governor? He should probably sit this out.

Sure they don't. Let's see UAT function next year without federal funding. This is from 2022, but should give you some idea: 2022 Federal Funds to UAT
