OFFICIAL 2023-2024 COLLEGE FOOTBALL OFFSEASON THREAD *THE START OF THE MICHIGAN WOLVERINE DYNASTY; UPDATE 1/24/2024: THE END OF THE MICHIGAN DYNASTY*

[da hen]

Out of Alabama, Texas, and Florida State.

- which team has the smallest fan base
- which team will produce less TV ratings
- which team fan base travels less

It’s a sad, sad day.

It’s all about money, always has been always will be.

It’s as simple as Jordan Travis is out, not like Washington has a huge fan base compared to FSU (just comparing fanbases, I know UW has earned/deserves it more than FSU even though they’re both undefeated).

But there are incongruities with where FSU was ranked in earlier weeks in the CFP.

 

[swendro]

If Travis was healthy, Texas would be out.

Remember, when Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was unavailable for the NBA finals?

This kid stepped in and played center, they won the game and the championship.

his name is Earvin Magic Johnson. Good thing the NBA allows them to play.

 

[IATT]

But that one loss team beat them?

in college football, my arguments would be convenient as hell

plus aint there were couple head to head guys this year where the winning team didn’t automatically jump the team they just beat

 

[jpzx]

da hen And do tell who the Earvin is in this FSU QB room, or whether there was a committee sending the Lakers to the Final 4 of the NBA.

That’s the beauty of sports, you don’t know who is going to step up. You don’t know who is going to take that moment and make it magical.

I’m a huge patriots fan, I had no idea this kid from Michigan #199 would step in and take the job from Drew Bledsoe and run with it.

You know if JJ or Courm gets hurt in the bama game and go on to win it, the committee won't replace UM with Georgia or another team? The playoff has already started at the that point.

 

[da hen]

It’s not a direct one-to-one comparison…..

but Tom Brady, Kirk Gibson, Magic Johnson, Tua Tagovailoa….. you just don’t know what magic is possible. That’s the reason why sports is the best unwritten drama available on television.

Been saying this for years.

I guess that’s most people’s problem with the process, right? A body of people of voting on who gets in. Some conjecture, money, and football politics mixed in, too. Then they’re inconsistent with their rationale. You don’t have “Travis Benjamin ,” so well put you at 5, but your consolation is we’ll place you above UGA. If that was their message, should have slid to 6.

Not the biggest NFL fan, but at least they play it out in the field. I know current construct doesn’t allow for it, but …

We need to have a Jan 6th and you need to lead the charge, Papi

Exactly. This is why the games are played.

If Travis was healthy, Texas would be out.

Bama would be out

You don’t understand how much I appreciate this post

 

[T0INE]

If Travis was healthy, Texas would be out.

Basically.

No way the committee would left out Bama and the "prestigious" SEC.

Then they would justified IT by saying that Bama's loss to Texas was early in the season and they're a different team now.

Would've been another can of worms.

But we’ve seen what FSU has at back up and they aint creating no magic for that offense

They are who they are

Curious, if UF was in the same position, what would your stance be? You’d be happy? Serious question.

No but I'm getting my trolls off while I have time and my team watches from their couches.

 

[D StaXX]

I feel for FSU, & 100% understand FSU fan's POV, but y'all put up 55 passing yards last night.
Safe to say Tom Brady ain't walking through that door.

Respect your opinion, great discussion.

There are 33 starters on every football team. So defense has never won a championship? Special teams has never won a championship?

Omg RIP Liberty
