You can keep saying it and it will keep being dumb as shite. It should have been the 3 undefeated P5 conference champs and then down to UT and Bama. No one is saying shite about UT because UT should’ve been in at 4 over Bama.


The frick are you talking about? I specifically said if Georgia had won, the committee would have put Texas in over FSU in the fourth spot. And nothing would have been said.

But because Bama won and got placed over FSU, everyone is losing their fricking minds. Only because it's Bama.

Another Hypothetical. How do you know the reaction wouldnt of been the same? Just like the games, it has to actual happen and there be results.

Was FSU tied with SOUTH FLORIDA at half?


They were losing to North Alabama 13-10 with 6 minutes left in the 1st half if this is the path we want to tread.

And that was like 4 weeks ago, not 2.5 months ago.

Because not a word has been said about Texas being placed ahead of FSU.

All of you are idiots.

Every single college sport including Division II football plays a playoff or tournament.

We’ve been led to believe that Div. I football cannot handle a playoff. We are all wrong.

It comes down to old white men protecting their interest with bowl game money and tie ins. That is as simple as it gets.

The FSU decision was based on money and TV ratings. Nothing more. Once again old white men and their money.

I’m sorry but it’s time to call bull shite. Do I think we need a 32 team bracket like Div II? No.

But a 16 team playoff would be fantastic. 8 is perfect but more teams brings better ratings and more opportunities.

I feel sorry for FSU because at its core, this decision kills the spirit of the game.

In 3 years players will be employees of the University with healthcare and protection. A roster will cost $50MM or more.

At this point the top 30 or so colleges who can afford it will break off and start a semi-pro league.The dominoes are falling and this is where we are headed.

I hope your team has money.

Go place a $1,000 bet on FSU vs UGA then and screenshot it for us, if you really believe FSU is a top 4 team in the nation then they shouldnt have any problem with #6


Exactly. Hell make it a ML bet. You’ll clean up

And earlier in the year FSU needed all 60 minutes to beat dog shite Boston College.

Round and round we go.

Exactly.

Playoffs should be Liberty, FSU, Washington and Michigan.

Personally I think we should extend an offer to South Dakota State as well, if they are willing to hop in in between the semis and the finals of the FCS.

Sagarin has them in the Top 25 of all of Division 1. Undefeated. Pick um up!

You know why they are high rated defense? There isn’t much offense in the B10.

I agree, their defensive stats are inflated and it shows especially when TCU and Georgia put up the numbers they did offensively against 2 of those mighty b10 defenses last year.

So, you point out the Bama USF game was a long time ago and FSU struggled recently. Then your response to the point Bama struggled even more recently is…….to point out FSU struggling well before a week ago? You’re better than that.

We should go back to the computer BCS model and take the committee out of it.



In 2014, if you used the BCS instead and not had the committee. You would've had Alabama and FSU playing for the national championship.

The two teams that actually lost in the playoff. They were one and two.

Fair point.

I keep debating as to whether I'm going to miss all this talk next year. Or if all the horrible takes on the 12/13 controversy will be enough to keep me entertained.

I made that statement because the BCS model actually has Bama higher at #3. The point being the idea that the committee just pulled this outta their arse is stupid. Statistics show Bama is the better team.

And yet just last week Bama had a 0.1% chance of winning against a 5-7 Auburn team. Yikes.

Strange how it went to 99.9% with :30 to play. It’s a 60 minute game. Yikes!
