And as much as I HATE FSU, they were screwed royally by the ASheShe refs! Miami is all they have, they will protect them at any cost, a phantom holding call after FSU had taken lead with seconds to go.

It wasn't seconds to go, it was in the 2nd OT. Even if the play had stood, then one has to make a leap of faith FSU could convert a 2pt conversion, which would tie the game.
At that point it only guarantees a 3rd OT

However the ASheShe was not gonna let that chance happened. I replayed the video and you are correct about timing, I had misunderstood based on the video I saw.

Two of those were top-10 matchup losses, so either way, you were going to have a couple top 10 teams lose. The only true upsets were UGA and Texas losing.
#2 lost to #8 and #5 lost to #4. #6 lost to #14. None of those were true upsets.

IMO the SEC has three or four teams that could WIN IT ALL, so no favoritism, ASHESHE has one, Miami that could.. so the refs are gonna protect them at any cost!!
Someone recently posted about the SEC "protecting" Georgia.

The irony of folks being excited about the madness of this past Saturday, is none of those games mean much in a 24 team CFP.

It's like interacting with an individual with a sea of accounts and he uses them to take both sides of an issue.

Kindof doesn't mean as much. :)

That is an issue for 2027.
As for 2026, there is reason to be excited about the results from past Saturday. (as can be witnessed on any CFB related news outlet)

Of course, which is I referenced it to the 24-team CFP and not this year. Just pointing that one of the things people enjoy about college football is going to be greatly diminished, if not altogether diminished, with the 24-team CFP.

Sure. If your team had a good season (minimum of 9 wins) and your bowl destination is in a warm weather area, absolutely.

I think the playoffs implemented in FBS (as is done in every other division) will eclipse it. Playoff games to be held outside of the bowl structure. Higher seed hosts until the championship game. Those bowl games which survive, I wish them well. Maybe they can invite good teams which lose early in the playoffs.
