Texas over FSU is the one that bothers me more. I watched several poorly played Texas games this year, and based on what I saw, they are not on the same level as the other playoff teams at this point in season. They struggled to separate themselves from a very mediocre conference, picking up a loss along the way. FSU in my opinion showed that their defense can win no matter who is under center. I don’t think FSU can beat Georgia or Washington, but I do think they’d have a realistic shot against Texas, because FSU with their 2nd string QB is just flat out a better team than Texas.

I always come back to the belief that if a team can run the table in any major conference and then not be included in the playoff, then they were never really in the competition in the first place.

Based on your entirely subjective opinion.

The best 4 teams this week. Bama didn’t look like top 4 while barely scraping by a dreadful Auburn just a week ago.

This rationale matches everything wrong with the current state of CFB…and it’s getting worse.

Well they knew they couldn’t put Bama in over TX because of head to head. So they stuck them both in and screwed FL ST.

I agree w Booger too btw

If they are going off the four best teams theory then Georgia should have been in instead of Wash.

But it matters who played to become "undefeated...the 1 loss was to #3 team...and just beat the #1 team...

FSU didn't even play against a top 10... team...

FSU got screwed because there are only 4 teams in playoff.

Absolutely not.

Gumps barely beat Auburn, who should have lost to Auburn a week prior.

they may lose but that defense wouldn’t allow an offense to “embarrass” them. The Defense is elite

Shame on them for winning a playoff game which is something Bama might not even do.

And how do you know that. Just like Arizona St did against them? Or did you forget a pick 6 in that game was the game winning TD because Penix couldnt do shite against them.

Mind you FSU played their 3rd string QB in that game against Louisville. They would have their 2nd string QB for the game against Washington.

Also, Penix struggled against Oregon's front. FSU's defense is a lot better than Oregon's. If FSU's defense kept it close it plays well for them. Washington's defense isn't that great either.
