I just read that’s a prediction in many places. I don’t know how to feel about that. Spend majority of season ranked number 1, go undefeated in the SEC, lose conference championship by 3 points, and they give us Liberty?

Makes sense but all the predictions I saw had Bama getting in.

You can only laugh. We'll probably lose, too, because nobody will give a frick about a shitty consolation prize against a shitty opponent. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if Kirby just said, "frick ya'll...we're done. Onto 2024".

That would surprise the folks in Vegas.

Texas and FSU were -400 to make playoffs earlier.

Bama plus money

You have to think there would be opt outs of the draft guys.

I think the highest ranked ACC team available is locked into the Orange Bowl. Assuming FSU makes the playoffs, that would probably be Louisville.

I’m not watching if our opponent is Liberty.

Think of it as an extra G day game. I’ll be watching all the backups start.

Why on earth would they pair us with a team that played no one in the top 25? Still given our motivation level if we get a matchup like that, it wouldn't surprise me if we slept walk and you see a game like Tech-GA.

Does the playoff seeding now mean we get FSU in a bowl?

As long as we don't play Louisville, I'm pretty indifferent. For some reason playing Louisville seems really shitty.

Highest ranked non playoff SEC team (us) vs the #2 non playoff ACC team (Louisville) ? Don’t sound right to me.

Based on the tie-ins, that should be the case. ACC champion gets a spot and highest ranked at-large from the SEC/Big Ten/Notre Dame.
