I do feel FSU is deserving.


This is why a lot of people are going to be mad. This board is being completely biased and letting their hate for Bama override common sense. I say that because NOT A SINGLE fan here thinks that the current version of FSU is better than Bama.

But if you've been paying attention, the committee has been paving the way to leave FSU out. That term "deserving" has been brought up and it's already been said that language is nowhere to be found when selecting the 4 playoff teams. This has been anticipated by the committee.

Apparently some of you guys didn’t read the criteria that was set on picking the top 4. The first one being that they are not picking the 4 most deserving. They are picking the 4 best teams. FSU is not one of the 4 best teams without JT.
2nd, they said that they will consider coaches being suspended or players being hurt.

With that being said, I hope they go against what they say and they put FSU in cause I frickin hate Bama. But if they stick to what criteria they laid out, then I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if FSU is out.

If an undefeated champion from a major conference is left out, there will be hades to pay

Bull crap. Fla St won with a 3rd string QB. They deserve to be in and will be. Saban and smart will be begging and crying. 7 seed should never jump over a power 5 unbeaten

Then washington wont be in the top 4 either right? They arent one of the four “best” teams by almost any power rating

Im not trying to be any kind of way. I just think some people on here needed to see this, so they can begin to understand that they obviously aren't one of the 4 best teams right now.


Yes, we all needed to witness this objective, data driven brilliant take.

You gonna have to link those power rankings even though that’s not something they factor in.

Why not? They've earned it...I'd be pissed if they were left out and teams with losses were in!

Exactly - why not leave Washington out, too, then? I believe the SEC has the best teams. BUT, if you can’t get into a playoff by going undefeated and winning your conference championship game, why bother…. It’s the only way to keep it from being only about $$ (the “eye test”, anyone??) - have something concrete that, when achieved, puts you in the playoff.

WTF is that Frankenstein word?

Also, if you are going to freewheel like that you’ve got to get the rest correct: “been”.

They would completely destroy all regular season games by doing that.


Bama is the exception to every rule. How many times has Bama gotten a pass for not winning the SEC? Three?

Based only on completely subjective criteria. 13-0 P5 conference champs. It shouldn’t even be a question. They should be in.

The SEC idiocy on these boards has been hilarious. The vaunted SEC West was 0/3 ba the ACC.

The SEC is not good by its standards this year. Accept it.

Thank you for helping us see this. I just don’t know how we could have survived the day otherwise.

Couldn't have said it better myself. If Alabama is in over Texas, then to quote Al Pacino in the famous courtroom scene from And Justice for All,
"There is something really wrong here!"
