Advanced Stats loved PSU this year. Have to wonder if the Big 10 style of play skews some of the metrics.

If FSU puts up any kind of a fight in this game they deserve tremendous props. Not to mention, if this is the last game of the day, we could all stand to watch an entertaining one.

Watching O$U and PSU getting beat by SEC teams is going to be a BOLO for a Meechicken/bama interesting game huh?

FSU mass opt outs sucks. In any sane version of college football these kids are all playing for the right to claim the shadow belt.

So when does karma turn it's vicious wrath on the SEC? Like all of them?

I'd have mountains of popcorn for that.

Should be Zero. UGA may put up 70 on them. Not getting in the playoffs was a killer for them
Losing Jordan Travis was the killer. Their defense carried them past Florida and Louisville.

With Travis, they probably still finish unbeaten but they get into the playoff because the committee gives them the benefit of the doubt.

Honestly - next year.... I truly think that the 12 team playoff might cannibalize SEC teams. Because we all know the committee (outside the SEC champ) will probably put in an additional 3-4 SEC teams.

35-3 in the 2nd. Anyone still think FSU was one of the four best teams this year?

I want one to come up to NW Indiana in December. Honestly looking forward to it to the point I'd overpay to see it live.

Their third string QB didn't give up 35 points.
Right. He's just 2/8 on third down and was their third choice at the position.

If Jordan Travis is healthy, FSU is probably playing Michigan. The committee would rather us see this today than on Monday.

Carry on, wayward sons.

UGA would put the mighty SEC at 3-3 in bowls with Tennessee, LSU and Alabama still to play.

It wouldn't matter who they had at QB. This is not one of the four best teams in the country.

eh, this FSU team is so far from what they fielded even in the ACC championship game that I don't think you can draw any conclusions from this. Full strength Georgia is probably a better team than full strength FSU, and no question that it's a deeper team, but gut feeling about relative strength shouldn't be how the committee picks playoff teams.

I'm sure you're right. Everyone looks impressive in the Portal Era with their QB3 playing a team that's lost one game in the last 3 years.

Not that this would have dared happened to Clemson if the scenario where the same.
