Florida State left out indicates out of control corruption in the CFP committee.

Florida State deserves to be in. Alabama does not.

So if LSU was in Bama’s shoes you would feel the same way?

Some of you are really REALLY jacked up over this.

Fla St being left out because of the injury is appropriate and makes sense. Fine.
But to use that excuse and then still put them 5 means the committee doesn’t do its job past the top 4. They should then be below UGA, Oregon, Ohio St at minimum. Maybe you put them ahead of Missouri.
How can it be reasonably stated that yep, they are worse than Bama, but better than UGA. That’s what is insulting to them. “You’re not top 4” but here, just be 5.

No fsu with no Qb is unwatchable

Wow, you made a very compelling case

??No it doesn’t. Most knowledgeable people know Alabamas resume is better that TCU..er ah I mean FSU! FSU was a good team in a sucky conference and built their reputation on beating a defenseless LSU in the very first game of the year! If it wasn’t Alabama jumping them, would you be so butt hurt?

I lost respect and appreciation for the Commettee when Miss C.Rice became a member !!!!!!!!!!

4 best teams Such corruption
Posted on 12/3/23 at 4:00 pm to js1591
Ya know, I also think this is just an indication of the pervasive corruption that has swept through our Institutions. CFB being pretty unimportant in the big scheme of things compared to say COVID or the FBI or Voting or all the rest, but in the same philosophical vein. Everything feels arbitrary and punitive. Bama has a seat at the table and FSU just doesn’t. All of it combined leaves everyone feeling gaslit and that our Institutions can not be trusted. Again it’s not a big deal on its own but it’s just another crack in the cultural foundation, another message from Power down to take it and like it.

Glad you are not a lawyer! Would you like to make your case, or did you just need to get that off your chest?
Let me make this simple:
5 Conference champs got ranked #1-5...
Then, to see who made the top 4, one thing you can look at is record. But, WHO you beat matters. So, to see that, you look at strength of schedule (SOS), and here is how they stack up:
SOS:
#5 ALA
#11 WASH
#13 TEX
#33 MICH
#37 UGA (just in case they had beat Bama)
#55 FSU
It's pretty simple to see which 4 teams won against the tougher competition this year. Yes, FSU went undefeated, but they won against a weak schedule. Bama's only loss came against a CFP team AND they just beat the consensus #1 team in the country. So, that helped them. It also hurt FSU that Travis got hurt and the offense has been horrible since. Translation = FSU not in CFP.

Admin please move to Florida st melt board
Posted on 12/3/23 at 5:03 pm to js1591
You are incorrect. The committee did exactly what they are instructed to do. The protocol given to the committee direct them to consider the effect of the absence of any key player or coaches on any team that had a significant effect on the success of the team. It’s in blackout and white in the instructions they are to follow. FSU has lost their first and 2nd string QBs. They just followed their protocol.

"out of control corruption"
No reason to be a drama queen.

You can't have monopolies that control the playoffs and that monopoly has an in-bed deal with one Conference... Conflict of interest.

Bama beating the #13 team by 14 is considered a great win
Fsu beating the #15 team by 10 is awful and justification their entire season shouldn’t count
It’s wild

How many times are you guys going to make the same thread? Most everyone agrees that FSU deserved to be one of the playoff teams.
