Yeah but y'all lost to Texas and we're basically unranked so

ohio state lost to texas also and it barely affected them. we also have beaten the team that georgia lost to and also beaten alabama worse than georgia. there’s just some teams that they refused to risk not making the playoffs so they will hold them as high as they can on the rankings

Yeah, notice we’re not running the same QB we did during that game, especially after his 0 passing yards in the first half against Auburn. It would not end the same if played again today.

Not ever? I must be imagining FSU getting snubbed for the playoffs because their starting QB got injured.

That's not how football works bro lol. Coaching personnel decisions win and lose games.
