baby!” response becomes naive and ignorant. The point of all the winning is to move up in the polls. The point of moving up in the polls is to ideally land in the coveted CFP bracket or worst case with a loss or two, wind up in a respected bowl game.

If they keep “just winning” and get overlooked and passed over (see FSU 2023) then apparently the winning doesn’t matter all that much.

There comes a point where fans and the program need to make their concerns clear to apply pressure on the system to get it right before it’s too late.

I’m not convinced we are at the point of applying pressure on the system but we are certainly at the point where it’s not crazy for fans and the program to be frustrated.
