Florida State Back to #1 in AP Poll, Alabama up to #2

[LT Profits]

Big shock, Bama gettin the nob slobbed at #1

While I am surprised they went from #5 to #1 in one shot, I do agree that they should be #1 so I have no problem with it.

[LT Profits]

I agree they should not be Top 4, if it were me it would be Alabama, Oregon, FSU, MSU. But my predictions in Post #1 use last week's rankings as starting point.

Shlipow!

This guy hates FSU all the make believe narratives that the committee uses to justify keeping FSU at 3, we all should be ashamed, we all can go on for days about this team beat this team by blah blah blah the integrity of college football is at stake, we all know what happens when we let a bunch of politicians control something. No way Alabama leap frog 4 teams lol, Oregon and that sorry ass PAC conference wtf while everyone is simping that hate FSU Kool aid and not seeing what this so called committee with condolezza rice for Christ sakes are doing to college football.

I don't "hate" anyone, I just think FSU will get trampled by any of the other three teams in the Top 4 right now in the semifinals. They are not one of the four best teams in the country this year but the committee had no choice but to keep them in the top 4 because they are going undefeated in a so-called power conference, even though the ACC is the weakest of the five powers.

What is you reasoning behind FSU getting tramped, let me see Alabama has gotten tramped, Oregon tramped, Mississippi state tramped, ohio state tramped, so how do you generalized FSU who hasn't been tramped with teams who have based on what assumptions, that's how I know u hate FSU,#facts

[daneblazer]

People been hating on FSU all season. First Clemson was going to beat them, then ND, then Louisville, then Miami...maybe some others sprinkled in there too.

What's the difference between FSU and everyone's SEC darling last year, Auburn? 1 loss by Auburn? A quarterback everyone doesn't hate? (Marshall's a real saint btw ) Auburn pulled W after W out of their ass but nobody denied they should be playing for the title.

Everyone keeps hoping for that FSU loss and they keep giving everyone the ole FU

Not everyone... However Sammy might pull for them to lose in playoffs depending on who they are playing

Every week has been a struggle for them against weak teams in the ACC. If they get off to the kind of starts they have gotten off to every game against the other 3 teams in the top 4 right now, they will not be let off the hook.

When did Alabama or Mississippi State get trampled? Both lost by single-digits to other good SEC teams. And Florida State has had by far the easiest schedule of all the top teams, and yet they still struggle to win every week. So like I said, it is not hate, it just is what it is.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Letting the humans decide the top four is bad news; you know politics will come into it. The computers should pick the top four.

Remember when Louisville had the #1 defense. Posters on SBR rivaled it to the 85 bears until Winston picked them apart. @ Louisville and @ an improved Miami are tough games but yet Alabama gets a pass for Arkansas, tcu for Kansas, Oregon for a few games and so on

And FSU had to rally from 21-0 in that game. Let's see them rally from 21-0 against one of the other three teams on top four right now, it will not happen.

SEC teams get an automatic pass for facing each other every week. I agree that Oregon is the next weakest in the top 4 after FSU, but Ducks are still better, although that would be the closest game.

[LT Profits]

FSU would beat TCU but that is a non issue because TCU won't be there.

[chico2663]

tcu would smoke fsu. get fareal. fsu barely beat notre dumb who loses to northwestern.chico-ology is tcu beat minn by 23 who beat northwestern by 7 who beat notre dame by 3 who only lost to fsu on blown or correct call at end of game. ergo tcu is 30 points better than fsu. hehehe

Anyone else get the feeling after tonight's list that with 5,6,7...possibility someone might bump the 'Noles from top 4 by last rankings even if they don't shat the bed against Gators or Ga Tech? Would be hilarious...just have that feeling after seeing tonight's placements.

If they win, they're in. Lose, they're out. Probably won't play GT anyways

Dont mind LT, he's a good guy but is 0 for 10 on FSU money lines this season

Correct and the committee has signaled they are looking for the 'best teams' not 'the most deserving' to which Florida St is a glaring example of living of of last year's success. That team was much better in domination and margin of victory throughout the season than this year's squad. Similar to Auburn's horseshoe up the arse plays last year in against Georgia and Bama to name a few....a few crazy tips, bad calls and such and FSU has probably 3 if not 4 losses already this season. Have to look at that when debating whether or not to keep out a TCU or Baylor or Ohio State conference champion and so on. I honestly think if Bama, Miss St, Ohio St, TCU, Baylor and Oregon all win out and grab conference championships mixed in there....Noles end up looking in at the end.

Zero chance that happens. Only way they're out is if guys like Daryl from Columbus and Charles from Reeltown are in he committee. If FSU wins out, they're in. Sorry folks. Will they win the playoffs? That's another story.

I disagree, I think FSU is in as long as it wins out and won't get exposed until the playoffs. Of course if Noles do lose a game before then, they should be out no matter out, they are the one team that cannot afford one loss.

An undefeated FSU in no question.

[Sam Odom]

In all honesty ... Bama should NOT have jumped them - IMO

But Sammy knows why... if top 4 win out Ala/Miss St will play 1st rd so NO CHANCE of a SEC v. SEC for champ game

No they shouldnt have, also think Oregon should be below FSU.

What would Arkansas record be if they were in the ACC?

[daneblazer]

What would Arkansas record be if they were in the ACC?

Does it matter? 6-4? 7-3? Depends on who they play on their ooc. They still get beat by the better ACC teams early in the season.

[Unwritten Law]

FSU
Alabama
Oregon
Ohio State

[chico2663]

what would missouri record be if they were in the big ten?

FSU had a great year LAST YEAR. This year they have escaped wins from mediocre teams. They are not even ranked in the top 10 power rankings and play in a week ACC this year. As for Winston, people don't like him because he is an idiot and his stock has fallen,he is ranked 40-1 to win the Heisman and 5 other QB's are ahead of him.
SEC and PAC 10 are loaded this year.
if FSU wins out they are in, they deserve it for going undefeated but let's face it most of the other top 10 teams are better.
SEC Bama
PAC10 Oregon
BIG 12 champ ?? TCU or Baylor if one wins out
leaves FSU, big 10 champ Ohio st. (Big 10 is very week!) and most likely another SEC team

Why even argue when there are many scenarios that can take place but I assure you it will go down to the power conferences, SEC,PAC10,BIG 12 and one left.....
