Should FSU be ranked in the top 10?

[dhoey]

The good thing about the B10 is that with the addition of USC, UO, UW, and to a lesser degree UCLA, the big 3 - UM, tOSU, and PSU - will have to play a couple more teams that actually will test them.

Even better, with 12 slots, they won't take spots to the exclusion of others. To be clear, I am just thypothetically saying they aren't necessarily that good. tOSU should have beaten us last year, and maybe we find out they are better than everyone else, and UM, UW, UO, and tOSU put 4 teams in every final. With 12 we will get to see.

When I say I want to play it out on the field, some smart asses say "well you just did and lost." That isn't right. The regular season and the conference championships are what set the CFP field. I dare any other program to have to go through Bama, UGA, or LSU (2019) the last 6 years. It ain't easy and it sucks that was an elimination game. They were never designed in any system to be elimination games. Now all 13 games will be considered and then once in the CFP you get to prove it on the field. No getting held out because "all you had to do was beat Bama." Let's do it on the field in the CFP.

Ya'll played a play in game just like everyone else. Well except FSU, their game was just for funsies apparently......

The only decent team? You're probably just trolling, but if you are counting Boise St as a decent team then you should probably count Utah, Arizona, USC and Oregon St.

I was being sarcastic but no we won’t be counting any other PAC teams except Oregon.

Im tired of Michigan coasting thru and couldnt even take the lead against TCU last year. Committee forgot about that tho and their schedule this year? Lmao

Do you agree or disagree that only this year should matter?

Committee claims only the current year does if I’m remembering correctly

Oh I agree this year is this year and that no undefeated P5 should be left out.

I’m just sick of Michigan and their weak schedule and then no show in the CFP.

Of course only this year should matter, but anyone who thinks they don't give some past benefit of the doubt when discussing a team like Bama is delusional.

Hypothetical here......

If the committee called up Norvel and said "If alabama beats Georgia, you are going to have to beat Louisville by XX amount of points to get that #4 spot". Do you think Norvel would have had a different game plan?

Also, did anyone ask them how concerned they were about Florida st having to play a 3rd string QB? Was it reflected in the previous weeks rankings?

I just don’t think Michigan should be punished for the TCU game last year. Agree they play a cupcake schedule OOC.

"not wanting another TCU" doesn't really work to me. You could make that argument IMO if they got smashed like that in the semi final, that they "never shoulda been there" but considering they WON in the semi final.....yeah.

The point is that it shouldn't be. It's an extra game that not everyone plays. Just ask Bama and tOSU both of whom made the CFP in the past without risking a loss in a CCG.

You should get this ... you beat Oregon in the regular season. Why in the world should them beating you later in the season suddenly count more? It shouldn't, but with 4 teams it does. In the 12-team CFP, it will be for seeding not an elimination game. If Oregon had beaten you, you still would have been in the CFP, just not seeded as highly.

Not saying to punish them. I’m saying they are just really gay

It doesn't matter ... the previous week Bama hadn't knocked off UGA. It was more of a matter that Bama moved up, not that FSU moved down.

Because a conference championship is worth more. Also the second game was a neutral site, no homefield advantage. I'm also against the current invitational system, and would like to see only conference champions play for a national title. Obviously that isn't going to happen with the super conference situation we are going to.

Care to answer the first question then? IF Florida st won by 20 would that have been enough? 30? If Norvel knew, would he have put the pedal down instead of having a shorten the game, conservative gameplan?

Let me try this slow for you lol


Big 10s best OOC win was Notre Dame.

Yes?

Clemson and Louisville both beat ND as well and by a lot more points.

No?

No no no, tiny brain. You said the ACC had three teams that beat ND this year. You know that's what this is about. Use all the brain cells you got to explain how ND has 3 losses this year, 1 of them being to OSU, yet somehow they lost to 3 ACC teams.

Lol. You are crying about that now? Sorry meant 2 teams. I said Louisville and Clemson a few times. And they both beat ND by more than OSU.

I never said OSU was in the ACC. Change your tampon again
