It would be like someone getting their doctorate degree and then getting in an accident where they suffered brain damage. You wouldn’t hire them as a doctor just because they got their degree. You WOULDNT hire them because of the new unfortunate circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only gripe about it so long though. I said somebody was going to be very angry either way and I was right. It was you! 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atticus Finch Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 The irony here is that one of the reasons FSU isn't in the playoff is because a 7-5 Miami team with a true Freshman backup QB pushed their shit in on the offensive/defensive lines. It took Cristobal one single offseason to equal or surpass Norvell on the lines of scrimmage. Oh yeah, and... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are multiple members of a team that could step up and make up the deficit of losing a team member, even an important one. Note: this is a general statement about the equivalency. I really don't follow FSU football enough to know if there are other players that could pick up the slack. I think the playoff committee wants to put the best product on the field. I personally think their thought process was and is flawed and lessens the playoffs instead of bettering them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Whatever the criteria the committee judges teams on is just like Alabama was this season... inconsistent... I feel like the very unfortunate Jordan Travis injury was a very convenient scape goat that they used to avoid telling the SEC that "Hey you're not gonna have a team in this season" Because ima be real This was the year where you had a chance to beat the bias allegations and they chose wrong... And to the people that think Texas should have been Left out... OU loss or not theres no way you see the Bama vs Texas H2H result and put Bama in over Texas... That's the exact bias everyone is accusing you and the committee of... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The members of the committee change every two years. So it's completely different human beings. With that said, the criteria has always been the same and is written down on paper. It wasn't bias that Alabama beat their #1 team and Florida State didn't beat anybody in the top 12. It wasn't bias that Alabama's SOS was #5 and Florida State's was #55.
