Why Was FSU Still #4 in the CFP after the Florida Game?

Jordan Travis was out for the year and after that game QB2 was in concussion protocol. Using the logic that Jordan Travis was the reason FSU didn't deserve to be on the CFP then they should not have been ranked in the top 4 after rivalry week.

Just one more reason to show how much the fix was in

Because the only thing the committee was consistent at being was inconsistent ...there is absolutely NO WAY that their reasoning for allowing Bama in over FSU holds up under scrutiny

I wish they would allow FSU's Athletic Director a one on one meeting with the CFP committee chair to answer these types of questions....it would certainly flush these rats out of hiding

Nothing they said was consistent. They were lying like a 6 year old.***

That is just one inconsistencies in logic out of many the CFP committee used to explain away their agenda driven decision. Ohio State participated in a CFP playoff with their 3rd string QB and the CFP rankings do not reflect all the players on other teams who have opted out of their bowl games or have entered the transfer portal.

The CFP committee BS only applied to FSU because room needed to be made to get the SEC team in. And Texas benefited because the CFP committee would have had to explain why Texas was not put in to the playoff above Bama because Texas was the only team to beat Bama.

The Committee gave them the opportunity to prove they belonged

Yeah, a 3rd string QB with a week to prep and no live game reps was really going to light it up. They beat the SECs best OOC win in #15 Louisville, while holding them to significantly less than their season average. FSU did everything they needed to do. Rodemaker would have been back for the playoffs and had a month to prep in place of Travis. They got hosed. It's okay to admit it.

Hmmm last time I checked a WIN is what proved you belonged.

If you don't think so, let's get some clarity. What is the criteria the committee uses regarding how many points you need to win by for it to be a "quality" win? Oh that's right , you don't know because there are none

Let's propose a scenario. FSU has the same exact personnel on the field and their offense/QB performs the same , but their defense has two interceptions making the final score 30-6. Keep in mind, nothing has changed with their QB situation but they blew out their opponent defensive . Do they deserve the spot?

It was ugly. We won plenty of ugly games in our playoff seasons.

Yes, and were voted up to 4 the next week. So obviously they were not discounting the quarterback issue. Cowards one and all!

It was all about getting the SEC in the CFP. Business decision.***

Because Georgia was still one and they thought is was an easy win for them.. only reason they are out is because no SEC team was going to get in with Texas moving to 4

Because it's corrupt.***
