No because they would have to have beaten UGA or Bama … possibly both but to run the table in the SEC they would have to beat at least 1 SEC heavyweight. The only reason Louisville was in a championship game was because the conf in general sucks … do you honestly think Louisville was a fringe top 10 team … honestly?
True, but this goes against the committee's stated objectives. That all said, I too will happily hold the door open for them. Yes, they've got a lot of good history in the ACC, but the last several years they've been nothing but a drain on the conference (in terms of on-field performance). They should shut up and get back to winning on a consistent basis before throwing their weight around like they did. Screw 'em.
I find it hard to believe that the SEC would have been shut out.
Yep. Pretty dumb, shortsighted take overall.
I agree that UGA and Alabama are the better teams right now, but whether FSU would get blown out or not is irrelevant. They earned the right to be there,
I personally agree with you. Just saying it's likely how the committee handled it.
And how are they breaking the GOR?
Yeah I’m sure that was their reasoning.
They are now the rich drunken uncle of the conference nobody likes at holidays who can’t stop talking about politics.They were leaving anyway, so...
Exactly.
Helps they win the playoffs nearly every year and put more players in the league than anyone .. but you’re right they suck.
And the work their defense did last night.
JR if this is the case, and I believe it is, more reason to like that FSU got screwed. They are leaving anyway and couldn’t care less about helping the ACC. I doubt had they made it in, that would help SU long term. We still need to get relevant and fast. Hope HCFB can do it
But they will. They're still going to take an SEC team over an ACC team, even if it’s for the 12th spot.
Turn off the noise and just focus on us. If su actually invests again and takes football seriously we could easily be a power in the north east again.
