Statistics say you are most certainly wrong.

Listen, we get it. You hate Saban and Bama. We all understand your decisions are made based on your emotions like some fragile little bitch.


This has nothing to do with Bama. LSU does not hate Saban and Bama nearly as much as you think they do. This is not the 2010s. Outside of Koy Moore and a Hail Mary, the 2010s are a memory.

FSU did everything that was asked of them and they got snubbed because they didn’t think Rodegarden could handle it. A level of objectivity isn’t unrealistic here. Objectively speaking, they did deserve it. You might understand this idea more thoroughly if someone wrote it for you in crayon.

I take a Bama fan saying “be better” about as seriously as I take your 2020 phantom title.

Why? If they don’t want to play then they shouldn’t have to play

If they refuse then just move everyone up a bowl game and find another team for the lowest ranked bowl. Which would be a 5-7 team based on APR. I.e MSU

I could be wrong, but a school has no obligation to accept an invitation to a bowl game.


It's their right, I suppose, but just how long are they going to let it drag on before they decide whether or not they're taking their ball and going home?

I have no idea how it works, usually teams immediately accept whatever invitation they get. I think I can remember only one team ever declining a bowl invitation. But I think that was a mid-major. I’ll have to look it up.

But imagine there has to be some sort of window of time they have to accept or, if the rumors about FSU are correct, reject it.
ETA: here it is, some teams declined their bowl invites in 2020.

When they're a member of a conference they sure as hell do. The ACC will sue their socks off if they try to skip out on this game.

That would have been the most watched bowl this year. More so than the CFP.


Two non conference winning teams that lost their one big game of the year over national championship playoff games? Get over yourself. The streaks are over and there will be no 3 peat.

I'm pretty sure that FSU wouldn't want to get shut out of all that conference TV money they'll forfeit if they don't show up!

FSU is just scared they get exposed to the world if Georgia kicks their azz.

Win, win for FSU. They don’t get their butts kicked and they get to pretend it’s out of principle.

And the SEC certainly has no obligation to offer FSU (again!!) an invitation to join the SEC.

Fsu should boycott. Uga playing 1s vs 2s would probably be a more compelling matchup.

This will become more evident after Nick sabans farewell tour.

You receiving 10 upvotes (so far) only reinforces my belief that the vast majority of posters here are idiots.

A qb that has been in concussion protocol already is very susceptible to another with one hit.


Welp, apparently at least one brilliant poster has come to the conclusion that a concussion is a one and done deal.

Breathing is hard for some.

Why? Other than it’s a cool, edgy internet thing to say; why good riddance to bowls? Is more college football such a bad thing you’re thankful for it’s disappearance? Especially when it involves matchups we don’t see that often?

If they don't play, I don't want to hear them bitch.

If they play and win, then they can bitch and try to make a claim for a NC.

If they play and lose, they can stfu.

I think they know Georgia will push their shite in and confirm the correct 4 teams are in the playoffs.
