re: What should FSU have done differently to get in?

Obviously, it’s FSU’s fault that Clemson, Miami, and Florida all had off years. They scheduled two major SEC teams, beat them both, on the road, and you clowns still bitch that they didn’t play anyone. And even in a down year, the Miami team they beat throttled Tx A&M of the mighty SEC.

Alabama needed a 4th and forever miracle to beat 6-5 Auburn, struggled with South Florida, and lost at home to Texas. And I’m supposed to see that as better than an undefeated record.

The CFP committee wanted an SEC team in the semifinal, period. They decided they could afford to bypass an undefeated P5 team to do it, so they did. Had Alabama beaten Texas at home we wouldn’t be having this discussion. But they get a mulligan cause they’re Alabama.
