The Committee said that they took into account the fact that FSU is using a third string Freshman Quarterback.

What they didn't say but also took into account is that Alabama Fans are more likely to fill up a stadium for a playoff game than FSU fans.

Florida State should play Georgia in a bowl game and show us how great they are

The SEC wasn’t good this year.

Against the ACC: 4-6
Against the Big 12: 1-2
Against the Pac-12: 2-1

Auburn lost to New Mexico State.

Humpft! A headline I saw named Michigan, Washington, FSU, and Texas as the top 4.

This is the first year that I see the need for more than 4 teams. I think the four above plus Alabama and Georgia might win if there was such a tournament, but I’d give FSU considerably less chance of winning than the other 5.

So, I think leaving out FSU is the right call and I think Trump is out of line here to blame DeSantis. BTW, if FSU was in, I’d be rooting for them to win but with little hope they’d actually win.

Maybe we’ll see a Georgia-FSU matchup in the Peachbowl where I would expect Georgia to kick butt.

I love Trump, and pray that he wins it all in 2024, but this childish infighting hurts The Cause.He is up by 40% in the primaries and insists on alienating those who would otherwise vote for him. The next time Christians gather around to pray for him they'd better consider:

Proverbs 22:24-25
Make no friendship with an angry man; And with a furious man thou shalt not go: Lest thou learn his ways, And get a snare to thy soul.

Can they both lose?

“My 4 picks would have been Michigan, Washington, Florida State and Georgia (even though they lost the SEC championship).”

###################

IMHO, the four should have been UM, UW, TX, and FSU.

Georgia may be the best team, but they had the chance to prove it and failed.

TX beat AL in AL. Never mind that it was week 2. AL does not belong there.

I guess the FSU QB situation did them in, but I’m not sure how fair that is to not select them based on that.

But these kind of controversies, while bitter for some in the moment, serve to build the game in the long run.

Losing QB Travis was what kept FSU from the CFP.
And, as *almost* everyone knows by now, the loss of a key player is supposed to be taken into account in the decision making process. That's not just talking-head opinion but something written in the CFP text!

The only thing you can blame desanctomonious for is not doing the job he was elected to do.

DDS on full display.

Trump never misses an opportunity to be a jackass.

To be fair, Trump is no less a New York prick than any other NYC rich white business guy I’ve known over the years. Think George Steinbrenner times 10, and THAT is exactly what America needs to get this turned around.

That’s the public side. Privately, hearts of gold.

Aren’t you tired of being a loser? I suspect desanctomonious is.

DeSantis = two terms as governor
Trump = one term as president and still crying about losing to a demented fool three years later

I’m still going to vote for DJT no matter what, but I wish he wouldn’t go off on stupid tangents when he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

The CFP committee stuck to the book rather than doing the creatively smart thing, which would have been to convince Bama and FSU, and Texas and GA, to have a wild card playoff—the top six teams were too close to leave two of them out. At least it won’t happen next year.

But in the list of problems America is having, college football playoffs is down around #15,796. Trump should be fighting inflation, border invasion, and Marxist crap being pushed on everyone, and beat those drums until they break, then get three more and beat them.

“Aren't you tired of being a loser? I suspect desanctomonious is.”

I'm still rankled that Trump - as president - didn't stop the steal in 2020. He knew what was going on.

What was he thinking?

Everyone in the State of Florida knew he was running for President more than a year before your election. It is not an issue. You are ignorant.

LOL, only because Trump carried him. desanctomonious was losing, and losing badly, before Trump sponsored him. Then desanctomonious stabbed Trump and all us Floridians in the back. He's done, once his no-show term is up, he will never be elected to anything ever again. And you have thrown away any semblance of credibility you ever had.
