FSU lost their starting QB. That was enough to keep them out.

That was under the four team format.

Do you believe that B1G and SEC bias is gone with 12 teams?

ParentingNotForSissy

Possible sure, but the FSU scenario still isn’t relevant with 12 teams in now

We’ll see what happens. If they do this, this 12-team playoff will just be the

But that was 1-loss vs undefeated team who just lost their star QB to injury.

Yeah but there are way more spots now. We will be ranked 5th or better at 12-0

If we are 5th and lose...

BYU will be 4th or 5th going into that game, playing (hopefully) top 15 Colorado

It doesn't matter. Stop worrying about randos. I don't know who this is anyways.

He's an anchor for CBSSportsHQ and was with ESPN Sports Center

Oh, well, if that person said it... it still doesn't matter lol

Atmospheric_Cougar

He didn’t say it. He is sharing what he has heard from others of hubris from the SEC and who should get a playoff spot.

The CFP is the SEC/BIG cartel - they are going to put there teams in ahead of BYU- to much $$$ on the line

BYU will be in if they finish 12-1. BYU is not behind any 2 loss teams and ahead
