Even with Rodermaker they weren't getting in. He isn't good. It's not like he lit the world on fire when he played against UF. You think he was going to absolutely clobber Louisville?


You think Jordan Travis was? the same guy who is on par with Floridas qb and offense?
FSU was much much more than Jordan Travis, which is evident by them winning their last two games without him. They didn’t need a miracle to beat their crappy rival on the road like the other team with their starting qb needed to do.

What about TCU last year?
They won their semi-final game against 13-0 Michigan. So yeah, they belonged in the playoff

Not no but hell no.

Georgia, even with Travis starting, wins by 10+

They win going away.
So why did you keep defending the committed choice to leave FSU out by saying they chose the best 4 then later argued that they did not choose the best 4 ?

Saying a bunch of contradicting shite is certainly one way to "handle" it.

I never said this.

Go back and read.

I said the true best 4 are:

1. Michigan
2. Texas
3. Bama
4. UGA

I stated that FSU isn’t a top 5 or 6 team and Vegas would prove that.

I have Vegas and the committee agreeing with me.

Not sure why this is so hard to grasp.

The better comparison is FSU's offense with and without Travis. It's a steeeeep drop to Rodermaker and basically a free fall to Brock Glenn.

What makes it a miracle? Your Bama envy?

Yeah a dropped punt leading to a 4th and goal 31 yard TD pass situation happens regularly

College Football Rankings - 12/3

1) Michigan
2) Washington
3) Texas
4) Alabama
5) Florida State


quote:

As others have posted earlier, Florida State has been the heavy favorite for the final spot in the CFP with odds of -350 to -400 vs +125 for Bama (Georgia was and remains a long shot) on FanDuel and DraftKings.

In the last couple of hours, the odds are shifting towards Bama. FSU is now approx -160 and Bama is now approx -115 and they are tweaking by the minute.

You didn’t see enough to make any decision on that, and he’s got a month to prepare for the next game.

Well Glenn wouldn’t play so that’s a stupid thing to even mention, but since you did, shouldn’t FSU be rewarded for winning a neutral site game against a top 15 team with such a terrible qb?

FSU is not one of the best 4 teams. Period.

They’d be the underdog vs all 4 teams that made it.

I don’t understand why people can’t grasp this.


I’m fine with that being the methodology, but it’s not and never has been.

How many in the playoffs would be underdogs to Georgia or Ohio State?

You have said Vegas would prove it, then also have made fun of Vegas odds being so wrong

It’s wild

Sure. They got their reward by winning their shitty conference.

Your call. I'm sure you won't stop crying about Bama getting in though.

Says the bozo in another thread talking like FSU's win in Gainesville is some impressive feat that definitely makes fsu a playoff contender.
