Thread: 2023-24 College Football Season

Interesting that the AP Final Poll had Florida State ranked 4th while Bama was ranked fifth.
The Coaches Poll (formerly UPI) had Florida State ranked THIRD while Bama and Texas were tied for fourth.
So who got it wrong? The sportswriters or the head coaches?

As for that video - comical! They're reacting to the ESPN infomercial telling viewers that Bama was back and to fear Bama. Then they show Michigan gasping when they find out they are playing Bama. It's called "conditioning." Let Michigan worry. Maybe they'll cheat more obviously.

As for Texas, I don't think they fear Bama at all. With Bama's old OC as their head coach, they lost by two at home then won by ten at Tuscaloosa the past two years against Saban.

Who got it wrong? The people who want to say that the four best teams include a team that has to start a backup QB, had a weak schedule, was probably overranked to begin with versus other teams with better wins and tougher SoS.

As for that video? It was represented to me that it was aired when the seeds were announced, and nothing more. If that's not the case, then shame on them.

People don't like to hear this, but it's about the four best teams; that's indisputable, and FSU doesn't have much of an argument for it.
