Does he really want anyone giving his team the eyeball test???

"I think it stinks," Fisher said. "I think the BCS and how we do it with these computers, I think we're ruining it. And the playoff isn't going to solve it, either. They've got to change how we pick the top teams in this country. It's not working. I think it was better in the old days when you did it by the eye test and you didn't have a championship game."
The latest BCS standings have Florida State (9-1) ranked 10th, behind three two-loss teams. The average computer ranking, which accounts for one-third of the BCS formula, has Florida State 16th, including two computer polls that do not rank the Seminoles at all.

The problem is their ACC champ matchup is brutal
They need to let Clemson and Fla St play again to have a decent title game
That's why the SEC champ game trumps all others - the west and the east champ will always give you two highly ranked teams or at least a matchup like a bcs bowl

don't disagree but that's the ACC's problem
not the BCS
and they could have fixed that (meaning FSU) pretty easily by joining the SEC

Also says he voted FSU 4th.

He so mad.
Why did VT have to let us down late.

Even under the old system, FSU wouldn't be sitting pretty. They are 6th, 6th, and 10th in the polls. FSU would need all the other front-runners to lose 2 games.
Besides, Jimbo had one, ONE JOB. GO undefeated in one of the weakest conferences this year. You take care of business at NC State, and this doesn't matter.
That part is kind of odd though. I'm sure it has to do with replacing WV with an Savannah St. Presumably it will get a big boost if they beat Florida.

I like the BCS. I just want it to expand to a 4 team playoff for the championship.
Yes there is always going to be someone feeling they are left out.. but you got a pretty fair/legit deal with the top 4 bcs teams.

The rankings need to be more objective not less. An "eyeball" test is just silly and will produce even more biased results. The "eyeball" test is basically one guy's gut feeling/opinion (in other words, a guess) on which team would beat another. I'd rather they go to an all computer ranking.

Idiotic statement. If they didn't shite the bed every year, the pollsters might give them some respect.

UF would block this

Anyone with eyeballs realizes that FSU would get stomped by LSU, Texas A&M and South Carolina.

Funniest shite I have read all day!

They will beat UF by 14+ no doubt about it.

if they used the eye test this year his team would still be out in the cold. The ACC is a terrible conference. Those first two FSU games against Murray St. and Savanna St. were a joke.
