The committee allowed FSU the opportunity to show they were worthy.  They kept them 4th to wait and see.  You know, actually watching the games.
FSU did not look worthy vs Florida. 
FSU did not look worthy vs UL.

So in a demonic, satanic, conspiracy move, they dropped the Noles 1 whole spot.
GASP
CLUTCHES PEARLS

I don't think you understand. The issue isn't that everyone is conspiracy theorists. The issue is that a team like FSU does everything they can with what was in front of them and is excluded by an arbitrary decision that we've never seen before. 

Literally they scheduled (and beat the crap out of) a strong SEC team (LSU) out of conference. They played their annual matchup against another SEC team and beat them with their second-string QB; it's not their fault Florida sucks. They're in a P5 conference and ran the table, 8-0, then won their CCG with their third-string QB to go 13-0 total. 

They literally accomplished every single one of the goals a team like FSU can go into the season with. Even AFTER their QB got hurt. Literally they did everything they could possibly do except avoid a terrible injury that was not their fault. 

That's what this is about. Bama might be a "better" team than a FSU team down their starting QB. But it still seems like FSU is getting f$&^!#g robbed here.

It sucks, but the current FSU team didn't beat LSU.  The one with Travis did.
This FSU team didn't beat Clemson and Duke and Miami.  The one with Travis did.

I have no idea why you refuse to acknowledge that a team losing its best player and then shows they're much worse matters.  A lot.

It matters.  Not fair?  Sure.  Sad.  Yes!  But it's the reality of the situation.

It was far from arbitrary

The committee was supposed to select the four best teams

If they were given the directive to select teams first based on their record and then their ability FSU would have been chosen

I get it. And I've highlighted the problem between "best teams" and "most deserving" teams before. 

Bama and Texas might be better than FSU in the beauty pageant. But FSU accomplished something; they went 13-0 and won their (P5) conference. And it's not like you can point to them scheduling pastries OOC to pad their win total--they played and beat two SEC teams out of conference. 

I get that this is the system. I'm saying the system sucks. If you're going to devalue both going undefeated (in a P5 conference) and winning your conference championship in the process, I'm glad the system is blown up and gone after this year.

The new system is far worse.... Don't get me wrong on that. But this result points out how bankrupt the current system is.

A lot of us would have considered the system bankrupt had they chosen FSU over any of the existing 4

Did you actually watch FSU play yesterday?  It was one of the worst displays by an undefeated team Ive ever seen
