For whatever reason, folks seem to want us to pretend FSU is one of the 4 best teams in college football when they clearly are not. I don't get it at all.

Michigan's reaction to finding out they're playing Alabama instead of Florida State should tell you all you need to know about who's a better team.
The committee absolutely did its job. |

This really was an impossible decision. Every team in this was going to have an argument backed by some kind of legit statistic. Even Georgia, they were #1 all year and now they're out. That's tough. Alabama beat Georgia which is an elite win. But Texas beat Alabama on their own field by double digits. That has to count for something or why play games at all.
On the other hand, it is true that the SEC had a losing out of conference record this year against the other power 5 conferences. Florida State beat two SEC teams including LSU who is pretty solid. I think Alabama is the better team for sure but on the actual field of play the results don't quite line up that the SEC had their most dominant year. I'm sure FSU will hold on to that forever and it's not wrong. There are going to be arguments for all these teams that are tied into facts and the results on the field. |

Yeah, I might have been more surprised by Bama in previous years, say if they played each other twice, but feel like the SEC isn't as deep now, so UGA kind of needed that win. They didn't have a crazy better schedule than Bama to justify negating head to head.

I can't pretend to give a shit about FSU getting robbed. I just hate all things bama and sec.
Good news on this being the 1 v. 4 matchup is that only one of these one who sucks the penis fanbases gets to play in two games |

Who would you bet on to win it all as the 4 seed?
Bama or Florida State? You can only pick one of those two. |
