    At least you’re consistently wrong. I don’t see a bunch here arguing Ohio State should be in. We didn’t win the last game and accept that.

    And the FSU and UF game is not a big deal historically in college football? This game use to decide who was going to be playing in the national championship. Back in the day the team that was the best in Florida went on to compete in the national championship. An in state rival playing in the swamp and an SEC team they played with their second string quarterback? I mean when does the SEC thing matter when FSU beats the SEC 2-0 this year.

    Do we need to go look at the trophy rooms?

    No need to look at a trophy room when the Committee is just handing out invitations to undeserving SEC teams they invite into the playoffs. Stop basing this years decision on the past. Each season should stand on its own and last time I checked 13-0 was better than 12-1.

    Same swamp Arkansas won in this year? UF is a dumpster fire and you conveniently left out they had their 2nd string QB (who had considerably less game snaps than FSU's) in also.

    Still believe FSU got hosed but no need to embellish in making a point.

    Which SEC team is in that is undeserving? I could see complaining if they put ole miss or someone in but Alabama and Georgia both had a strong case.

    Y'all are the ones that keep bringing up a game against Auburn that was won....
    The loss was to the number 3 ranked team.... FSU had its chance against Louisville in the ACC title game... And what it should have done was pulled an Ohio State back in 2014 and won 60 to nothing or whatever it was with its third string quarterback and it didn't... If it had done that then all the bammers would be mad about it today and all y'all would be happy... But here we are.... And I'm quite enjoying it...

    They are supposed to put up style points with your Freshman QB that was playing because the 2nd ranked QB got a concussion on a targeting penalty by UF? That 3rd string QB was not going to be playing in the playoffs. Enjoy your illegitimate entry into a playoff spot you didn't earn or deserve.

    Calling them illegitimate is not correct or right. That would be like saying FSU getting in would be illegitimate. Does it suck for them? Yes. Someone was going to get screwed. This year it is Georgia and FSU.

    Is 13-0 not better than 12-1? We are handing out participation trophies to teams that just have SEC under their banner. It is an entitlement mindset.

    There will be some great matchups of SEC teams playing teams from other conferences in the bowl season. We will see just how good they really are?

    With all the star players opting out? It will be a pre season game at best.

    Deservedly so. Bowl games serve no purpose other than getting players hurt.

    It works the same for both teams. If the SEC teams are supposed to be that much better it will show up in the score.

    It will show up on the draft board. Who knows where everything will fall this year but the trend line will likely remain the same.
