UF essentially was out of the playoffs once they lost to LSU; the conference title was the only thing that would've allowed UF to move ahead of A&M (if UF only had 1 loss).
I guess I was just using too much common sense. A close game to #1 at the end of the season is so much better than a blowout loss, imo. I get the loss to A&M, but again, they finished #5 and it was a close game, so essentially, Florida would have lost two close games to two top 5 teams.

Well I'll put it like this.
UF is not Notre Dame. Its not Clemson. Its not Ohio State. Its not Alabama.
They had no shot of getting in with 2 losses.
