I think the committee uses the “FSU is now a different team” argument and leaves them out.

Not fair to the kids

this

they are painting it as FSU v. SEC decision

i'm in shock that they have taken the narrative this morning that we are #3 - and they did this before the AP release 15 minutes ago

this looks like we are in

People tried to tell you

I was just checking this out this morning. None of UW, FSU, and UM signed a top 5 class from 2019-2023. Surprising. UM had a couple barely top 10 classes.

Stealing signals makes up for lower rated recruits.

Massey and Colley are now my favorite series of 1s and 0s.

It's interesting that the final year of the 4 team playoff is likely the only year that the BCS mock isn't the same 4 teams as the CFB playoff committee.

It's every bit as real as anything you are using. Do you have Liberty right with them? No? Because you are using subjective measures to qualify FSUs record.

Yup that’s definitely the same thing lulz

Exactly my point. You are drawing a subjective line.

Why don’t one of you guys just call the committee and ask who’s in and we can just stop wondering ?

P5 vs G5 is not subjective.

So you would leave out FSU even if they didn’t have a backup QB? If that’s your argument then I apologize for misunderstanding. I don’t agree with it but it’s a better argument than their season shouldn’t matter because one guy got hurt.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,817]

The only argument against FSU involves ignoring the entire season. We have no idea how good they might be with a backup QB. We managed to win some games, against ranked teams, with a backup QB. If Quinn got hurt yesterday should we be out?

It’s a principal in the selection committee’s guidelines…yes if ewers was hurt, Texas very well could be on the outside looking in

Dude missed wide open people all over.  But since it was vs Georgia nobody cares.  The bias is hilarious.

I'm not arguing for Alabama. I'm saying FSU is not very good and their record alone isn't qualifying for the playoff. It's a subjective decision. I'd put FSU below Alabama, Georgia, and Ohio St and a minimum. Probably below Oregon as well.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,817]

If they had won the game in exactly the same ugly fashion with Jordan Travis as their quarterback, they're 100% in, not a single question asked, correct?

Heisman trophy candidate Jordan Travis? Yes 100% in

show starts in 15 minutes, schedule i read this morning said 11:15 for the reveal.  they get this shit out of the way before the NFL kicks.

FSU is going to be embarrassed by any team they play in a bowl.

CFP or NY6.

Whichever seed gets us Michigan instead of Washington is fine with me.

1. Don’t be scared

2. Sugar Bowl vs Washington would be a de facto home game.

I’m fine with either. We only lost by a TD in the Alamo Bowl without Rojo, Bijan or DMo 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,817]

Why? Because their qb was a heisman candidate while their back ups struggle vs shitty Florida and shitty Louisville?

You're serious? An undefeated B5 conference winner with their starting quarterback intact gets in without hesitation, even if last night's have ended 2-0 in their favor, and we'd only be talking Bama v. Texas this morning.

[EuroHorn 3,268]

The committees easiest out is putting Texas in because they beat the sec champion and putting fsu in because they are undefeated

The live stream placement is obnoxious.

“Making sense” isn’t the committee’s strongsuit. They had Oregon ranked ahead ahead of us because of bo nix’s completion percentage. We might be fucked.

Not being an idiot isn't your strong suit. Bravo.

If the game last night was exactly the same but with their starter, how would that support the argument that they don’t deserve to get in with a backup?

If you want to say they are out whether they have Travis or not, then that’s an argument that makes sense.
