Old Guy Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) @AlexGreen#20had it right, FSU should sue the **** out of the NCAA! Time to dismantle the whole NCAA cabal. Wonder how the committee viewed Michigan cheating most of the year? The world will all be right when the Packers kick the Chiefs ***!

Mazrimiv Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 So today Georgia is at #6 behind FSU at #5. Had Alabama lost to Auburn, and then Georgia lost the SEC Championship, does anyone believe that the committee would have let FSU into the CFP? Not a chance. Georgia would have been #4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which shows you just how corrupt the whole process is. SEC bias at it's finest. Nothing FSU could have done this year to get in. SUE the NCAA FSU! Blow the whole thing up! The NCAA is a cabal.

PossibleCabbage Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 N.B. This isn't the NCAA that's making these decisions it's the "College Football Playoff Committee." The NCAA has never administered the postseason in FBS football (they do in FCS). So the way this used to work is that the the bowls used to have conference tie ins- for example, the Rose Bowl was contractually obligated to take the top BIg Ten team and the top Pac-(8-12), while the Sugar Bowl took the top SEC team and top Big-12 team. What this meant is if the two best teams in the general estimation are like Ohio State and Oklahoma you wouldn't see Ohio State play Oklahoma, because their bowl affiliations didn't intersect. As a result the "national championship" for whatever it was simply recorded "which team a council of experts thought was the best one." Sometimes there were multiple councils of experts and they disagreed. But "fixing this" is what gave us the BCS, which extended the argument downward to "who are the top 2 teams". So we went to 4. But none of this has ever changed the fact that "people whose opinions count" might disagree on who the best team is. UCF's national championship in 2017 is as legitimate as Clemson's. Going to 12 does cast the net wide enough that we're probably going to get every team with a legitimate case, but 24 would be better.

Rainmaker90 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Absolutely embarrassing. I can’t believe they did that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnypackerfan Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 FSU needs to get out of the ACC and get into the SEC. It would cost them some major dough, but that 55th Strength of Schedule ranking did them no favors and the BIG 10 and the SEC are only to get stronger in football. If the selection committee's job was to pick the best four teams, they probably accomplished that. FSU losing that quarterback really makes them a very good team, but probably not a top four. For the BIG 10 fans, they now have the #1 ranked team....the little SEC team is #4, should be a cake walk for Michigan over Alabama (at least if the BIG 10 is as good as I keep hearing about). Alabama got handed a win versus Auburn a week ago. Washington vs Texas should be a good match up, but I expect Washington to win in a shoot out.

beekay414 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 There's nothing that happened on the field that indicated that either Georgia or Ohio State were two of the four best teams in the country this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 UGA was absolutely coasting on the reputations of their 2022 and 2021 squads, and Ohio State was the beneficiary of "C.J. Stroud's really good" even though he's in Houston now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to happen sooner rather than later. There's already been rumblings that Florida State has been looking around. You have to believe that Oklahoma and Texas didn't take note when Baylor and TCU were left out of the playoffs several years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Is it just me or is Alabama genuinely not that good this year? Like it's hard to watch that team that struggled in week 3 against USF in week 3 and needed a miracle to beat lowly Auburn last week and say "that's one of the four best teams in college football." They got in totally on the reputation of the program and the conference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FSU had no real test this year, if they had played a Washington, Georgia etc.. in their conference championship they would've been easily eliminated from the CFP. Michigan beat Penn State and OSU, Washington took down Oregon twice, Texas beat Bama on the road and Bama ended a 29 game win streak. No signature win and no starting QB for FSU. Committee got it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
