Ok .. minor rant ahead.
I've been stewing (just a little) all afternoon. I'm not a football fan by nature but I have been keeping tabs on FSU (Florida State) all season because it's my son's alma mater.
They got screwed big time (and not in a good way). How can a team with a perfect 13-0 record be snubbed for the College Football Playoffs? Those kids deserve it. Plain and simple. Screw Texas and Alabama- both with 12-1 records. Hope the Tide rolls off the field in a landslide defeat.
To add insult to injury, FSU got assigned the Orange Bowl... which takes place in the home stadium of the Miami Hurricanes... FSU's most hated rival. (The Gators are at least a friendly rival, Miami fans are some of the most disrespectful toward opposing teams)
Ugh .... rant over.
