Well written and researched. What I guess Tech fans may differ on is whether the ACC second class citizenship, as dictated by ESPN, is something they can’t control, or they bring on themselves. Given the unprecedented decision by the college playoff committee, and the SEC’s control over New...

In my alternative College playoff: Number one ranked Washington fought fourth seed FSU in a low scoring game that finally ended with Washington kicking the winning field goal after recovering an FSU fumble inside the 20. Michigan physically hammered Texas for almost four quarters, allowing...

Yep, that’s right. Shocked the odds makers who at the time thought Alabama would destroy them. They reacted the same way when Clemson blew out Alabama in the championship game. Paul Finebaum had predicted an Alabama blowout. Took a few days to recover but slowly the “Alabama was not...

They do seem all bought in.

Agree but it’s always a thing every year. Even Alabama in years past had some embarrassing losses due to “motivation.” Wasn’t one of them Utah State or somebody like that? I would have to look it up.

Have a friend, not an athlete, unless you count beer on the golf course, who went to Tech early and essentially finished high school as an entering freshman at Tech. It’s a paperwork thing I don’t quite understand but have some guesses about. He almost got eaten alive his freshman year, having...

Yeah, the problem is whoever wins will prove nothing because either team can claim they weren’t motivated having been cheated out of the playoffs.

Agree completely. It is understandable that he is not a complete player now. Also exciting that his ability to stabilize the offense shows how much potential he has.

All while the game announcers are running down the championship for having bad offenses.

So so so tired of the SEC hype every frickin year.

If I’m a ranked team right now I would not want to play a team like Ga Tech. Either take care of business and get no bump in the polls, or get embarrassed badly.

“Abram’s gonna be alright.” “He’s my guy.”

“Say it ain’t so…”

George, I believe, will slowly learn how to make more shots, floaters in the lane and layups, etc. But I still wish the other guard was someone like Mark Price so that the defense would have a harder set of split second decisions to make.

You summarize my feelings exactly. I hate how hard I’ve been defending FSU in all this but the highly questionable way in which the committee handed an historic precedent changing decision leaves all of college football in jeopardy. With so many things headed in a dubious direction with...

You are always one of the “mature voices in the room.” So, what do you think would be a proper procedure / outcome for any potential review of CFP Committee’s process? I ask this because I am always slightly tempted to act in a childish way when I see others continually getting preferential...

There is, however, one possible point of comparison. The SEC champion on their home field beat LSU by two touchdowns. The ACC champion on a neutral field beat LSU by three touchdowns. Also interesting to note that in years past, when the SEC had a winning record over the ACC, pundits never...

I still can’t believe someone could say with a straight face that an undefeated SEC champion would get locked out under the same circumstances. It would never happen.

He got confused over who said what. Easily done.

Good point. FSU with its 3rd string QB is better than Michigan with their starting QB.
