Why would anyone want NC State? Have they ever won anything outside of Jimmy V in '83? They are a more southern version of Maryland or Rutgers
Agreed, the wolfpack needs to feel smoking hole in the ground pain next year. Now that I found out that the CFP selection committee chairman is an ACC AD, it makes even less sense that he would choose BAMA over FSU. It's a MAD world!I hope every ACC team remembers it when they play NC State.
Not sure if this is sarcasm trolling or not, but will treat it straight for now.Not sure why people are upset and saying this is a conference thing when it’s clearly an injury thing. Their Heisman-candidate QB is injured, so they aren’t the same team that easily beat LSU. Be honest. If FSU was playing Bama, would you really pick the sans-Travis Noles in a straight-up bet? Bama would clobber them. FSU can’t score.
Sure, I see the argument that they went undefeated, had a great season, and have a top 4 resume. But they’d be a sitting duck in the CFP. Not to mention, Bama only lost one game. If they lost 2, then I’d be upset like a lot of you guys.
At this point, if FSU broke multiple feet off and up into NCST's ass, and beat the GT vs Cumberland record , I think I would be OK with it.Oh, hey, I failed to notice we had a dedicated thread piling on Boo. Lemme copypasta and join the party.
FSU was there for Boo Corrigan and NCST. The favor was returned with a back stab.
Boo Corrigan 'shocked and disappointed' about NC State's NCAA snub
NC State AD Boo Corrigan releases statement after the Pack9 was left out of the NCAA Tournament.247sports.com
While Corrigan didn't release much in the way of anger toward the NCAA -- he is the College Football Playoff Committee Chair, after all -- one ACC coach didn't hold back. After one of the most grueling series ever earlier this season in Tallahassee that resulted in a narrow Florida State win, Mike Martin Jr. gave his thoughts on the situation.
"It's what happens when you don't have representation from your league on the committee," Martin Jr. said. "The ones that do have representation seem to get taken care of. I feel so bad for Elliott (Avent) and his tremendous ball club that he has. There's no way they shouldn't be in."
Boo oversaw the committee that screwed FSU, cost every member of the ACC at least a half million dollars, and downgraded every ACC team's bowl destination. And he was just peachy with and in total agreement with that outcome. Boo Corrigan also hired Todd Stansbury to be head of NCST football operations. What more reason do you need to declare him persona non grata? If you squint you can even see him covered in Clarke County Correctional gear. It's a real shame FSU doesn't play NCST in football next year. I think Mike Norvell would try to ring up triple digits on the Pack if he could.
It goes to 12 teams next year, so it's really moot moving forward, but FSU has every right to boycot their bowl game vs the gaggers and not show up.

Also probably never select Oklahoma for the playoff, since they're 0-4 in it so far. I mean, they don't seem to be able to win in it so no point in sending them right? Michigan loses this next semi they'll be 0-3 in them so throw them in that hat too.I think most of us just want the games that are played to matter. Under your system, we should just give every player on the contending teams a physical exam, add up the recruiting stars of the healthy players, and the highest-scoring teams make the playoff.

BS. You act like UF and UL are not quality opponents. More importantly, give the backup a month more of practice and may roll through the playoffs. They were playing a third string freshman QB with very little reps.Not sure why people are upset and saying this is a conference thing when it’s clearly an injury thing.

Your assumption never came into play before with top QB injuries from other schools.
This is about getting the SEC in. It is also likely about getting FSU to move. It’s also likely about NCS trying to move. And it’s about ESPN pushing their favorite conference.
It could have been about demonstrating how fair the group was… nope.
Everyone in the ACC should make sure that NCST is always screwed. Left out when possible, lower seeds, bad bowls, etc.FSU was there for Boo Corrigan and NCST. The favor was returned with a back stab.

A lot of tech fans are upset because if they'd do this to someone like FSU this way, then GT will get screwed over even worse for the foreseeable future. After this, even with a 12 team playoff I figure our only way in is with automatic bid. We could go undefeated in the regular season, blow the pants of UGA and lose to an undefeated opponent in the ACC title game by one point at the last second and I have 0 confidence we get in over a 2 or 3 loss SEC team.UF and UL were not quality opponents. UF is living off past glory in the heads of the media and casual fan. STers have been saying for weeks now how Tech should have beaten UL.
BTW, you are way butthurt over all this. Maybe take a break for a day or two.
Huh? Florida is in the middle of the vaunted SEC. So was Auburn who outplayed Bama. UL is a bowl team, roughly equal to Ok state that Texas beat to get in.UF and UL were not quality opponents.

You should be more upset, records matter.
