That's what quitters do. I would fight like hell to avoid that in the future. I don't remember who were the 4 in front of them right now but remember thinking that it was probably right if you were talking about the 4 best teams. Please tell me it wasn't the year Georgia beat TCU like 60-7.

avoid what in the future? not showing up in a bowl game?

Well, I guess that's good that the bowl games are pretty much gone or dead or both, now that the 24 team playoff is happening....

You are totally right...we will try and avoid not showing up for bowl games from now on........

They should have slapped a letter O in place of the F in FSU and they probably would have gotten in that year

Considering that FSU is still getting made fun of for that historically bad arse beating, yeah, I’d shoot to adopt that outlook moving forward also.

Georgia fans...oh my God...

Just curious, what do you think will happen to the bowls now that we're headed to a 24 team playoff?

Yes, it does suck that FSU was shafted out of the playoffs in 2023, even though it seems pretty obvious that they were not one of the best 4 teams in the country.

However, the idea that being left out in 2023 excuses the following 3 seasons is weak sauce to say the least, and if I were an FSU fan that wouldn't fly with me.

Or how they lose to unranked USC by 12 with a trash backup quarterback ROS and only drop to 10/11…

Might want to fire Kirby Smart then, he was a graduate assistant under Bobby Bowden and got his masters from FSU

oh man, you can't make this stuff up...Georgia fans have to be the dumbest fanbase on the planet lol

Also, weren't you the Georgia fan that said Nebraska was overrated in the 90s? LOL


Fortunately it would appear that despite his time at FSU Smart has overcome the cowardice that is inherent in most things associated with the Florida Teachers College. His time at UGA was no doubt responsible for his having the moral and ethical grounding that is lacking in most people associated with FSU that allowed him to escape unscathed.

I never said Nebraska was over rated. I correctly and factually pointed out that they never played anyone one in the regular season and there success was due to that verifiable fact. They weren't over rated, they simply played nobody. They were better than the teams they played in the regular season and healthier than the teams they played in the post season due to having played a schedule eerily akin to a high school schedule in the south....

You are totally correct

2023 snub had no bearing on Norvell getting DJU as a QB....or hiring Tony White and his abysmal 3-3-5 defense

Or Norvell's constant bad decisions during games...I could go on and on

Serious question - and these years run together anymore, but did Norvell build that 13-0 team or did he inherit it? I don't remember how long he had been there when the 13-0 team happened.
