Message: [QUOTE="fireford, post: 4809216, member: 11088"] Not sure if anyone else has already said this but I believe if Georgia wins then FSU doesn't get screwed. Why? Because the golden goose, aka as the SEC, would be in as the #1 seed and it would've come down to FSU and Texas for the #4:spot. The committee wouldn't be as hellbent about getting Texas in as getting the SEC in so would have likely picked FSU as #4 in that scenario. With Bama winning, the only way they knew they could justify getting the SEC in was putting Texas and Bama both in because Texas had the head-to-head tiebreaker on Bama so they more or less had to put them in as package deal so to speak. If Georgia won, your top 4 would have been Georgia, Michign Wasington, and FSU. The committee was willing to deal with the backlash of leaving unbeaten FSU out in order to make sure they put the SEC in but if the were already in they wouldn't have done the same to get Texas in.
