We would be doing the same thing. And we were, until the Michigan loss. It's natural for any fanbase to do this.
So, if 4th ranked FSU wins their conference by beating #14 ranked Louisville and finishing the season undefeated, you want to drop them in the rankings and keep them out of the playoff because they are playing with their backup QB? I’m not sure I follow your reasoning, but then again, that wouldn’t be the first time. Who are you putting in ahead of them? A one loss non conference winner? That doesn’t make any sense. Conference championships and undefeated records matter.
Not necessarily. Texas and Bama are right there also.
See TCU last year and you’ll know. What would Vegas do with bama v fsu ? (I’ll guess bama -15)
Who cares? That’s why you play the games. TCU manhandled Michigan. Nobody saw that coming. They deserved to be there.
I thought the goal was to try and crown a national champion.
They wouldn’t be 15 or less with an undefeated record? Where do you come up with this stuff?
Am I wrong about going 0-6 v big 2 and being a national afterthought? If so how am I wrong? 9-2 is real
So if Alabama wins and FSU loses, it could be Mich, GA, TX, tOSU or Alabama. No way they leave Texas out after today. tOSU lost a very competitive game at Mich.
Yes, because they earned it. Even more so with a backup QB. If they win out and win a conference championship after losing their QB a few weeks ago, then they are legit and earned the opportunity. What else do you want from them?
To be one of the four best, which they are obviously not. Final four is for the best, not a participation award
because they will have earned their way in- it's not about "what I want to see" and it's not about you being entertained either- get over yourself
It’s not (imo) what you were, it’s what you are. If you agree with the early good loss theory, then you understand what I’m talking
They’d not be undefeated with their backup QB if the starter went down week 6 is what I said
Dude , what is your deal? How is it a participation trophy if they win all their games? Should they be penalized because the teams that “look good” lost a game already? You wanna penalize an undefeated team that started the day ranked #4? It’s that kind of backwards, vindictive thinking that left PSU holding the bag in ‘94.
You speculate with the best of them. One minute you say their schedule sucks, the next you say they wouldn’t be undefeated with the backup QB all year. Pick a hill to die on Rick.
Don’t be obtuse. I’m arguing they are not top 4 as presently constructed. If they played the last 5 games with their current backup QB, they wouldn’t be undefeated, proving they are not top 4 as presently constructed. Vegas would agree with me
Just like seeing Ohio State with their third string QB in 2014. Oh, that’s right, they won it all.
after watching the B12 game, I think I agree with you. OSU has no path now.
Hey, the rick watched the first half and I’m prepared to say I was wrong, FSU is 100% one of the top 4 teams in the country and he looks forward to seeing them play. I’ll predict they get the 3Rd seed with Huskies getting 4. Cheers bro.
