If they aren't, then the playoffs are a joke. How can they be left out when they are undefeated and are conference champions.

I hope they’re not. And I hope they are so butt hurt over not being in that they lay a huge egg in whatever bowl game they get relegated to. Yes I hate them. A lot.

I think so as well but hoping not. If not, then we are one day closer to getting away from the NCAA and creating a new league.

I want you to be right, but you're not. Bama will get in over them because (1) their one loss is to a better opponent than Florida State has played all season, (2) Bama has better wins, especially GA, than Florida State (whose best win is LSU, who Bama also beat in a very similar fashion), and (3) no one in their right mind thinks Florida State is actually better than anyone else vying for a spot in the CFP.

I don't think it's fair, but this is the logic that will be applied.

It would be the biggest crime ever committed by the committee to leave this FSU team out.

They earned it. Period. They scheduled LSU OOC and beat us better than Bama did at their own field.

FSU won every single game even through adversity like losing their QBs. To deny them would be way more controversial than anything else. I don't know how anyone on good conscience could be okay with screwing FSU out of the playoffs given what they just accomplished this season. And if any other fan was in their position they would feel the same way. Period.

I am so sick of the argument of four "best" teams. You can't prove or agree on "best" teams. I believe Georgia and Ohio St are still among the four best teams, but they should not be in the playoffs. It's silly to assume who would win when everybody looks beatable this season. Oregon was a 9.5 favorite to beat Washington and look how that went. People were so sure they would blow Washington out.

- they should have kicked the FG to end the game.

Are people really forgetting this same Bama team should have lost to Auburn? They aren't the powerhouse of old.

My point is how in the hell can you say they are that much better than FSU given what we've seen from all the teams this season? You can't. You can only assume and that's not good enough. It's also not right.

and it's ridiculous you are comparing their one loss to a team who didn't lose. and BTW, FSU absolutely beat LSU better than Bama did. And Bama was at home. And Bama knocked our QB out of the game. So they should have won by more.

FSU is probably the only team that actually kept Daniels down in the 2nd half.

THAT SHOULD MATTER. Their defense is elite and it should matter.

2 teams had Alabama beat, but they pulled out one of them thanks to almost back to back fluke plays. They say they find a way to win, but I don’t give them credit for Auburn fumbling that punt in the last minute, or the hail mary pass. FSU is the team that finds a way to win.

You can't leave out a 13-0 conference champ team

They may be out now. Alabama or Texas will replace them. Georgia, Michigan, Washington are other three.

I want Bama out as much as anyone, but believing this is like believing in the in the integrity of our elections. That committee is putting Bama in the playoffs. Book it.
