    I typed a response that was way off the deep end, while mostly accurate, it was too far. It's a huge sign of disrespect though. I mean Oregon may look good but they don't play anyone either and they have a loss.

    I agree here...you have an undefeated power 5 team and reigning national champion ranked below a 1 loss team? Complete disrespect

    To me, Oregon has the edge by the margin that they're beating people right now. They had a bunch of injuries when they lost and they lost to a good team. FSU just doesn't look that hot right now.

    Also, there's a ton of football to be played. No use trying to sweat it.

    Can't really use injuries here though because FSU has had worse injury luck this year than any other year I can remember in a long time.

    Oregon lost to Arizona...and FSU has beaten teams thru injury, suspensions, rapes, crablegs, and all sorts of drama

    One of very few times myself and a Clemson fan agree on anything.

    Some of it may go back to conference perception too. Even the the PAC 12 isn't great, I think the consensus is that it's better than the ACC.

    As much as I hate FSU... I need ya'll and us to keep winning...But yeah...regardless of my hate...it's complete disrespect that Oregon bumps FSU in this case. The only justification i could even fathom them coming up with is style points...and that's just horseshit

    Horseshit again

    ACC has 4 in the AP Top 25
    Pac12 has 3

    ACC has 77 wins so far
    Pac12 has 69

    ACC and Pac12 are 1-1 this year, with UCLA beating a terrible UVA team by 8 and USC losing to BC 37-31

    Both conferences have 7 bowl eligible teams so far

    At best, ACC and Pac12 are on about equal footing

    :notsure: that was my guess for why others would rank them higher. My reasoning is the way each team is playing right now and Oregon is soundly beating a bunch of scrubs while FSU struggles to beat their share of scrubs.

    Oregon still lost at home when they were a three score favorite. Also Bama should be ranked ahead of them imo.

    The committee doesn't like Oregon. They know whenever the ducks are ranked high they choke. This is their way to say get the quack out of here.

    The seed doesn't matter. If you're #1 or #4, it doesn't matter. Keep winning, and you'll stay in the top 4 and get a chance to prove you belong in the playoffs.

    Honestly, this committee seems to be going a lot off of style points. FSU isn't dominating people. They're winning, but they look awful doing it for the most part.

    Just win, and there's no way they take you out of the top 4. Stop crying.

    So I guess we should have just lost to Louisville so we would have a "quality loss" vs a middle teens ranked opponent and the same number of wins vs ranked opponents.
