FSU in the playoffs along with Washington and Michigan.
13-0 you have to go!

Indeed. Power 5 undefeated conf champ can't be left out. Then it's two champs one loss. Bama lost against Texas this season
Bama is in. ACC is pathetically weak. Louisville lost at home to Kentucky last week. Without Travis, FSU would get boat raced by Bama, Georgia, or Texas.
Hopefully we will never know if that is true or not. hook ‘em
FSU's defense is awesome. Their secondary players are incredible - best I've seen this year. Their offense will be better with their second team QB. He will be back for the CFP.
FSU struggled to beat a team that lost to Kentucky. How can anyone say their path was equal to UGA, Bama, etc.
If you go undefeated in a power 5 conference, you deserve to be in. Otherwise, what's the point of even playing?
Bama struggled to beat Auburn. The same Auburn team trucked by New Mexico 17n state. There is more parity in college ball this season than usual. Florida state trucked lsu this season.
FSU is a double digit dog to every team in contention. Vegas knows.
Exactly. You play your schedule. The whole season counts. More impressive they won their conf without their star player. Says a lot about their team
I think it’s easier for the Committee to justify leaving FSU in than taking them out.
Danny Kanell’s head gonna explode…
Bama won by less than a touchdown to Texas A&M, Arkansas (by 3), and Auburn (by 3). Besides, they are bama. Keep em out.
Sec has gotten the benefit of the doubt in years past but you can't leave out undefeated power 5 champs. Then you have on the field head to head between other two.
Look at the rankings last week. Bama was behind Texas. Where they should have been because they lost to Texas. Bama shouldn't jump Texas they have same record and have head to head road win.

Let's be honest, the only reason we are having this conversation is because Bama (and the SEC) is the one that should clearly be left out
Bama only beat us by 23. I mean, seriously? They couldn't do better than that?
Send Florida State to the Orange against Georgia. If they can beat them, then it’s a split national championship just like old times.
And Washington, and Michigan.
Let's leave the sec out this year and let's see what that looks like. After the past 12 months for us, it's hard to have interest in watching this time no matter who is in.
I agree that Florida state will get beat fairly easily by the 1 seed, which I’m assuming will be Michigan. But I don’t like the thought of leaving an undefeated power conference champion out. They did everything they were supposed to do, including beating 2 SEC teams, so it’s not like they went weak on non conference
Ole Miss would probably truck FSU right now. Hell half the SEC would. Being on a third string QB is going to cause them much embarrassment in the playoff if they make it in
You guys are really trash talking about FSU. This season started in September and you have to look at everything that has happened. Truck this, boat race that… it’s really disrespectful of all of the teams. If you taken any one of those other teams that won the conference championship and put their first string quarterback on the bench what would happen?
Since the ACC, Big 10, and PAC 12 colluded to not start the 12 team playoff this year, one of them should have to give up a spot.
They might. But guess what FSU did that UGA and Bama didn’t do? Win all of their games. Hell their non conference composed of 2 SEC teams. Too bad Florida sucked except for the week they beat TN.
And Bama and UGA both struggled to beat a team that lost to NM State. See how easy that is.
This is were all these recent college football championship formats are just stupid. I hate Bama, but how can the SEC Champion NOT be in the final 4 and the loser be in?
This whole premise of the 4 "best" teams is just wrong. Arguing against FSU because their best player is hurt just shouldn't even be allowed since they continued to win without that player. I have seen many times where team A can regularly beat team B, and team B can regularly beat team C, but then team C regularly can beat A. So which is the best?

Yeah, if you want the 'best', you can decide that on a fashion show runway.
But it has to be based on overall resume, not just head to head. And to bring it back to this thread, FSU should absolutely be in and it's a travesty if they are not. The only facts here are that Michigan, Washington and FSU are undefeated Power 5 teams.
I'm putting in both Bama and UGA because they are 2 of the best teams left. Kick FSU and Washington.
Texas
UGA
Bama
Michigan
Fight me.

What's more important: who you beat or who you lost to?
FSU has good wins and no bad losses as do Washington and Michigan, so they should be in, You want to argue Georgia, Bama, and Texas for the last spot, go ahead, but leaving out an undefeated P5 conf champion (even if ACC is lowest of the P5) would make the playoff system a farce (IMO).
That’s another argument I still ask you…
which team that you guys are putting forth would be in the same position that they lost their first string quarterback today ?
it really doesn’t matter because Florida State is going to get left out there to put Texas and Alabama in the playoffs
