The trouble is where would FSU go?  The SEC has no use for them. I'm told the only additions the SEC would make are Notre Dame and North Carolina. Tallahassee is a small media market and Florida covers the state.  They're not a high academic university like the B1G favors.  So, unless the B1G makes an exception, that leaves only the Big 12.

A fair question, but certainly one FSU must have considered and resolved to their satisfaction before even contemplating filing suit against the ACC.  They are not about to get into litigation like this without a safe landing place.

What a whooping.  Largest margin of victory in bowl history.

Hopefully the advertisers will ask for either refunds or credits for future games.  Ticket buying fans too.

Would have been fun to see no attempts at tackling, 4 kneel-downs on possessions.

The last half of the fourth quarter Georgia was alternating two walk-on quarterbacks who had never taken a snap in a game.  That should have been the same as a kneel-down.

FSU sacrificed themselves to be eaten by the opposition. Much like this guy. I never thought college football would be so deep

So both of the the media darlings elevated above Florida State lost.

Will the committee send them to the championship game anyway?

Waiting for a Saban presser lobbying for Ala to play in the championship game because "we're a darn good football team and deserve to play for the title.  We're Alabama."

Well they didn't. First clean National Championship since 1948. That was along time ago.

Well, the 2024 ACC football schedules are out.

Cal Berkeley has road games to:

Auburn (non conference)
Florida St
Pitt
Wake Forrest
SMU

All those long flights aren't ridiculous at all.

Some of the home games are Miami, NC St, and Syracuse.

The only team they play from the old Pac-12 besides Stanford (also now ACC) is Oregon St.  Likely to help them out since they're scrambling for games now that the Pac-12 is down to them and Wash St.


Stanford plays at Syracuse, Clemson, and NC State.  Some home games are TCU, Virginia Tech, SMU, Wake Forrest, and Louisville.


How long can this last?
