He's right.

Nope. I don’t get out much. Shocking, eh?
-
Uhm….. I don’t quite understand any of this, but thanks for the response.

Wrong thread, moran.

Sure. Teams place different values on the same player. Maybe some team thinks more highly of him than the Tigers. And maybe that team has a position player and/or prospect that the Tigers value more than that team. It doesn’t necessarily mean that Manning won’t eventually develop into anything. Heck, if it’s an even swap that brings in a bat that fills a need and the Tigers can backfill a rotation spot via free agency, that’s a win for the Tigers.

I don’t know about that. I think people simply feel like Florida State got screwed over.
-
I don’t know. I kind of want to see Florida State end up as the only undefeated team now.

This player availability excuse is hogwash. Eye test is hogwash. Bring back the computer rankings, install point system.

Can they sit out the bowl as protest?
-
Well, conferences are realigning anyway. This might hasten it.
-
False. One of the four best teams barely escaped vs a 6-6 team, which should have been their second loss?
-
I hope Mike Norvell loses his gourd when they interview him. He absolutely deserves to trash the decision.
-
You’re a Florida State fan now?
-
Maybe, maybe not. He’s still mostly potential right now. How will that potential actually play out?
-
That’s absolutely disgusting.

I think the other thing to that Florida State deserves credit for is their early season win over LSU. I like the idea of rewarding wins over out of conference competition like that. And, yes, I know they’ve also got an FCS opponent on the docket this season, too. But they’re undefeated in a power 5 conference, won the championship, they’ve beaten a pretty good out of conference opponent. That’s their resume this season. Given the no loss and one loss teams, they should be rewarded with a playoff berth.

Pretty sure this was said about hosting the Wizards. -
Their trade value might be debatable. But Reese Olson was acquired for Daniel Norris. So it’s not necessarily what gets sent out as much as what gets brought in return and how it is developed.

I think I’d go 1 Michigan vs 4 Texas and 2 Washington vs 3 Florida State. I think there’s reasonable debate about which one loss team gets in. Ultimately I think that it comes down to a head to head of Texas defeating Alabama on the road, and Alabama defeated Georgia on a neutral field. I would also suggest that of the one loss teams, Alabama is the luckiest to have not sustained a second loss. It’s unfortunate that the larger playoff doesn’t start this season. I have an acquaintance that I had forgotten is a part of the committee this season. I hope he’s willing and able to share some of the background about how the decision process goes down this season the next time that I see him (which isn’t often).

I don’t know. They’re unblemished, which is more than can be said about other teams. Here is a point that I heard this week, and I wish I remember who made it, but I don’t. Florida State has lost its starting QB and some (or a lot of) folks want to ding them for that. While the QB can have a lot of weight on the success of a team, there are 11 guys out there on any play, offense, defense, and special teams. Florida State isn’t undefeated solely because of their original starting QB. It’s a a little unfair to the rest of the team to cast them aside for another team that might meet an eye test but has also has a loss on their ledger.

Seems like a basic summary of the thread.
