Yes FSU was left out. Someone was going to be, and they let injuries be their reason for the decision.
In reality, they also know they will not have this issue next season with 12 playoff teams.
What is more interesting/worrisome to me is this … Where did all the moving to the Big 10/SEC talk go? Seems there was to be big news by the end of OCT., but I’m guessing the legalities of trying to leave have tabled those discussions for now, at least publicly.
Of note: FSU, not only cancelled a game against us that might have had a 100-0 outcome, but the AD also earlier this year whined to the media about needing to leave the ACC - seemingly a “keep your mouth shut” type moment that only brought attention to the matter. I liked Neff’s poise in that moment.
Oh my Lord, our game with Florida State was cancelled because of COVID and was totally within the rules that were set forth by the ACC medical committee. The talk of expansion has slowed because there are more important things to have fake news about.
