Its a joke, a 4 loss FSU going to a BCS bowl. Had they lost against the Gators, that would have been a FIVE LOSS team going to a major bowl?!?!

One of those losses is by one point to Miami, a game FSU should have won. Another was a gift to Notre Dame at the height of FSU's internal dissension and chaos. One is at Louisville in a hurricane. The NC State game, well, FSU just sucked. Based on what happened to the mighty, world-beating Gators in Tallahassee I'd not want to be on the team lining up against the 'Noles in a bowl game.

A playoff makes all this moot. BCS is a sham, but the BCS rules say the ACC champ goes to a BCS bowl.

Of course the rules say they should go, but the fact of the matter is, the rules are whacked, thats why the BCS sucks!

4 losses, woulda, coulda, shoulda, there are many teams who deserve a bowl appearance over FSU, sorry. FSU, this year, was a shadow of its former self, they themselves would even admit to that.

Oh yeah, one more thing..

Uh, no, COULD have won. Everyone seems to forget the fact that the entire final drive was setup by a shanked punt by Miami, a 3 yard unforced punt. Then there was a couple of plays that drive that were prayers answered, a lucky throw and catch.. sheesh, luck goes both ways my friend. Their string of luck on that drive ended with a missed 43 yard field goal, which ISN'T a gimme by any means. I'll bet there are far more missed 43 yard field goals than there are 3 yard punts..

Trust me, as a Gator as long as Zook is the coach, the world will beat the Gators (except Georiga, of course)

Why do all Florida State fans whine so much when they get beat?
