Almost hate UGA more than Coots but how do they have 0 players tapping out against FSU? Maybe they feel they should be in the CFP, but they aren’t and they got beat by Bama. FSU lost to nobody yet many of their offensive play makers are playing Santa Clause. I understand the risk but how does Kirby have all his team in that can play.

He wants to beat FSU like they stole something to prove to the committee that they belonged in the top 4

I think you're right. Kirby's plans to give them the TCU treatment.

… and selection committee just to prove that FSU doesn’t belong in the playoffs.
I’m not an FSU fan by any stretch, but I’m pulling for them hard against UGA in this game…

The floodgates will open after the bowl game. I imagine Kirby is making it worthwhile for them to stick around til then.

The way FSU operates all there players may opt out on game day. Norvell realistically has to see what is coming. FSU may get beat as bad as TCU did. Does Norvell take the beating or pull the rug last minute.

the number of covid cases on campus at FSU this week. Mikey might call the whole thing off at the last minute again. It’s pretty clear that the noles are going to get humiliated if they play.

Agreed....UGA trying to prove something now against a disillusioned FSU team missing half its starters is hilarious. Maybe if they would have had the same determination in the Bama game they'd have a shot at the championship
No matter what happens in that game, it won't change my opinion of FSU being robbed

I know it won’t happen, but I’m pulling for FSU to pull out on game day. I don’t know any consequences that could come with. But I assume FSU would get fined and possibly ineligible for next bowl season. But it would be great. We would get to laugh at FSU and then laugh at UGA because they would be mad. Imagine all the UGA fans in the stadium as UGA is the only team taking the field.

opting out means nothing, especially considering the total outrage over getting left out of the playoff? It says a LOT about their culture and their program IMO. I hate UGA with a passion that dates back to the beginning of the Danny Ford era; but it ain’t gonna hurt my feelings to see the noles backups get crushed.

Whichever team loses, that side will claim "they were discouraged and didn't want to be there." Still, the game and score will be a matter of Orange Bowl history. Probably best not to get embarrassed.

Bowl game means nothing. UGA can do their 45-0 trick against a depleted FSU team and thump their chests.

Hopefully it bodes well that way. We get a over confident UGA to start next season.

I hope they beat FSU by 50+! I don't like Norvell and I kind of hope they get embarrassed on court by the ACC. Clemson will be fine regardless. I honestly believe the ESPN will drug into this and be forced to pay the ACC more for its broadcasting.

I believe GA beats FSU by 30 or more.
I gladly took GA and gave up the 14.5.
Hard to say that when I can't stand GA.

FSU's rump to prove FSU didn't belong in the playoff. Imo, UGA was much more deserving of a seed than FSU even if UGA played with a great loss of talent and FSU went in with a full staff.
If you watched those two teams play this season you'd agree. I also believe Bama will wipe the floor with anyone they see in their way to the trophy.
Don't accuse me of being an SEC fan or a shill for ESPiN's horrible hype. I pay no attention to ESPiN and haven't for years. I mute the games to insulate myself from ESPiN's BS.
