Wow Georgia is playing like the team mad they got screwed.
I never really care if half of a small football playoff is the SEC. If we had a small basketball playoff half the teams should be big 12. Same thing.
It would’ve been a joke to shut them out completely. Just Alabama is fine but Alabama and Georgia would be more rational than 0 from SEC.

The barstool bowl announcers might exceed Bill Walton as the most annoying commentators ever.
It's just an exhibition so no big deal for FSU fans and players. LOL

I don't really care for Portnoy but Big Cat is funny and Jake is basically a comedy straight man and he's a pretty good commentator
Unless you actually want to watch the football game. This would be fine as the alternate channel, but they’re trying to be the entertainment not the actual game. It’s like watching Mystery Science Theatre to catch a movie you wanted to see.
It's a bottom tier bowl game. Nothing wrong with trying to do something different to make it entertaining.
It validates that the right but difficult choice was made to squeeze them out.
If being #5 vs #4 somehow results in 20 players out there’s something massively broken in the sport. Some of this was happening even had they got in.
If there was some small basketball championship that excluded the Big 12 it would be as fake as wwe.
We're seeing on full disply why it's time to revisit how to do NIL/transfer season to make the non playoff bowls interesting again.
I'd guess even 12 team playoff teams have players sit out.

I don’t think they are really trying that hard. They are playing a bunch of backups and third stringers from FSU.
I’m planning a thread asking specifically which games DO matter. About 110 of 140 teams have no real chance of being top 12, so if only playoff games matter why should it all even exist?
It would happen a lot in basketball too but only 10-15 college players a year have a very good shot at a guaranteed nba contract. If 120 of them had that likelihood it’d be the same thing.
Might be a small thing, but I guess the NCAA could set a rule that any player sitting out of the post season cannot participate in on-campus NFL workouts.
But that’s really the only thing that I think they could do to control this. So you might as well just create a 16 team playoff and do away with bowl games.
