Florida Lawmakers Consider Protesting Florida State CFP Omission

Florida lawmakers already have an appetite to propose state legislation to protest Florida State not making the College Football Playoff, a source close to lawmakers told Front Office Sports.
On Sunday, the CFP made the controversial decision to award Alabama the fourth slot in the postseason instead of the undefeated Seminoles. The decision was presumably made due to the strength of schedule considerations and the loss of FSU’s quarterback Jordan Travis, who broke his leg in a non-conference game against North Alabama on November 18.
But some lawmakers don’t appear to be accepting this explanation. It’s unclear what direction a bill could take — but legislators are currently discussing multiple options, the source said.
At least three government officials in Florida have commented publicly so far criticizing the CFP’s selection process.
“What we learned today is that you can go undefeated and win your conference championship game, but the College Football Playoff committee will ignore these results,” Florida Governor Ron Desantis said.

Florida Sen. Rick Scott has requested the College Football Playoff committee "immediately" release recordings, emails, and texts about its decision to exclude Florida State.
"There are hopes, dreams, and billions of dollars in economic activity that hinge on the decisions made."

We are reaching historic melt levels, rarely ever seen before. We're at "State legislators trying to pass laws" level of melt.

The committee should have gotten their points in order before putting Boo Corrigan up there.
Everytime he talks it gets worse.

We basically learned this in 2011 (albeit the undefeated thing) Never understood how people act obtuse to the power and control of ESPN over CFB and their driving force behind the SEC's success and perception.

FSU got hosed, but this is retarded. And DeSantis attaching himself to in the middle of a Presidential run is ridiculous too.

Just wondering if Louisiana can overcome this level of melt when JD5 doesn't win the Heisman.

So what are they going to do, boycott the orange bowl. Wouldn’t that hurt the Miami economy by not showing up? Look, I hate they got left out but there is nothing they can do

This happens every time someone gets left out with great national outrage.
Nothing ever comes from it.
