Do you feel better now?

Of course. They cried for nearly three weeks, didn't show up, had defectors that cared less and got their ass beat by the second best team in the country in a bowl that meant nothing. Yea, I feel bleeping great to see whiners lose when they don't get their way because they're feeling entitled.

If I were a voter... I'd leave FSU off the entire ballot.

Hell, I'll give you this that disagree: all FSU starters injured or not are eligible tonight. UGA by 30 instead of 60 still.

FSU doesn't have to dance for the puppet masters

2-time defending national champion and SEC East champion Georgia dominated ACC Champion Florida State from start to finish to finish 13-1 (8-0 SEC). As a result, Georgia snapped Florida State's 19-game winning streak and dropped Florida State to 13-1. I noticed several other trends.

1. Since a 44-28 loss to Florida on 11/7/2020, Georgia has won 46 of their last 48 games. Their only 2 losses in that span were to Alabama in the 2021 and 2023 SEC Championship Games.

2. For the 3rd straight year, Georgia finished 13-1 or better, and they went 42-2 over these 3 years.

3, Georgia broke their own record for largest margin of bowl victory and outscored their opponents 128-10 in their last 2 postseason games.

4. Georgia has won 7 straight postseason games.

5. Kirby Smart has improved to 8-2 in postseason games.

6. After Mike Norvell started 8-13 in his first 21 games, he has gone a remarkable 23-4 since.

Crybabies. They were 13-0 in the regular season. They should have been 3rd.

How bad would your t-sips would have been crying if they would have been left out because they got left out and Bama would have been 4th?

Your argument is flawed.

Georgia would beat Michigan, Washington and Texas just as bad in similar situation.

While this is true, the reason UGa isn't in the playoffs is because they were, at the absolute best, the 4th team in 4 team "playoff." Over the previous 20 years or more when I've been screaming for a real playoff of 16 teams, many on this board actually said, "no, 4 is sufficient." It has only been the last 3 or 4 years where the tide (pardon the pun) has changed and the majority have come to their senses -- albeit with what's come to pass (i.e. 12 teams).

We never should have gone all these years with only 4 teams. Hell, we shouldn't have gone as long as we did with that awful BCS. We did because people accepted it.

12 is too many teams. If Georgia wanted to be in the playoffs, they should have beat Bama.

The "awful" BCS? It got it right just about every time.

Not arguing the number of playoff teams at all. Myself I'm for a 16 team playoff but that's for another thread to discuss.


I'm stating his entire point of FSU being destroyed justifies the playoff committee leaving them out. And that's a horrible take.


As I already pointed out. The other 3 non SEC teams, if they played Georgia yesterday and had the same number of starters opt out, all of them would have also been destroyed.


Washington and FSU had earned their way in.

Texas won one game and got in.

Michigan did not beat any real teams all year and got in. The Big 10 is total garbage. Them being the one seed is the biggest joke of all but Big 10 media bias wins the day of course.

Florida State University vowed revenge after being left out of the four-team College Football Playoff despite an undefeated 13-0 record.

But on Saturday at the Orange Bowl, Florida State faced a historic defeat by No. 6 Georgia, falling behind 42-3 at halftime, and lost by a final score of 63-3.

The 60-point margin of victory is the largest ever in a bowl game, breaking Georgia's record from last year when the Bulldogs defeated TCU 65-7.

One would think FSU players would have shown up to make a statement. $ > butthurt, I guess.

In other news, FSU has withdrawn its application to join the SEC

But I do agree 12 is too many Top 8 includes anyone with an actual
Legitimate argument plus a few wild cards for Cinderella potential

FSU got that TCU Treatment from Georgia.

A Sugar Bowl where they were disappointed to not make the playoffs and didn't care to be there? Because conventional wisdom was Texas' win a few years ago against Georgia in the Sugar Bowl didn't count in a similar situation.

As it turns out they can still stomp a team even if they don't make the playoffs.

Guess no one read today's statement by Kirby Smart, that he believed they played an FSU team that was nothing like the FSU team all season prior to the bowl.

"People need to see what happened tonight, and they need to fix this," Georgia head coach Kirby Smart said.

I think he's right. It all goes back to allowing sit-outs, transfers, etc. prior to bowl games. If you've played for a team the whole year, then you should be forced to play any post-season games as well. This is why, when we sign a player and give them a scholarship, the scholarship should be based on playing all season and post-season games. If they don't play, they lose their entire prior (all years) scholarship AND have to repay all scholarship funds paid to them.

So, FSU shouldn't be complaining since they allowed the players to sit-out with no scholarship consequences.

Truth is, opt outs and transfers be damned, FSU got it handed to them by a team that gave a damn to make a statement to likely be the #2 team preseason in the country. FSU can tout all day they were hamstrung due to transfers and opt outs. Yall were good enough to file a lawsuit, be good enough to take that embarrassment too. Ya got ya ass whooped & I don't care who did or didn't play. Be three deep if that's a problem.

Shut up, sip. Who cares what you think.

Obviously you do. Human nature dictates you don't respond to something you don't care about.

This game, or should I say this beatdown, has nothing to do with Florida States case for the playoffs.

This team wasn't representative of their seasons accomplishments, just as the team we put on the field in Houston wasn't our true team. It's the world we are living in . Portal, opt outs for the draft etc...

A case can be made for them deserving a spot in the playoffs and a case prevailed that they weren't deserving. This game today has nothing to do with either case.

This is a nice sentiment but the game absolutely means something. If Bama wins the title (not a sure thing) it's impossible to say the best two teams this year aren't Bama and UGA.

He didn'tsay the game didn't mean anything….he said their performance wasn't representative of their accomplishment on the year.

The 4 best teams in the country going into championship weekend were UGA, Mich, UW, and FSU. You finish the regular season undefeated, a close conf champ loss to a respected program should not leave you out when other teams got to beat up on 3 loss teams in their conf championship.

I think this game underscored how strong of a program UGA has, rather than an affirmation that FSU didn't belong in the playoff.

The truth is, there were 7 teams worthy of the playoff, I personally thought UGA and FSU were the 2 that should have been in of the non-UM/UW teams.
