    When will we finally see an end to all the FSU whining? Good grief guys, give it a break!!! Go Dawgs and thanks for sticking together as a team when we were equally disappointed. We beat the snot out of the Seminoles and that’s all the history books will show. Excuses are for losers. Go Dawgs!!!

    FSU and UCF can get together and commiserate.

    How long are you guys going to milk this? Yes, FSU and UGA are different programs run by different coaches with different philosophies on how to run a program. Big shock there. UGA has been a top 10 program and occasional title contender since the hobnail boot game against Auburn in Mark Richt's first season. By contrast FSU has been a mess since the last few years of the Bobby Bowden regime, is in a conference that is imploding, is actually the #3 football program in their state in terms of tradition/facilities/academics etc. and Mike Norvell is forced to build his program with mercenaries.

    No, FSU's whining is no better than UGA fans in 2007 and 2018 claiming that they deserved shots at the title when they were the third best team in the SEC (behind LSU both years, Tennessee in 07 and Bama in 18) or even this year's claim that the committee should have put UGA in based on their 2021 and 2022 accomplishments (never mind that the 2023 team clearly wasn't as good as the previous 2).

    randomsportsfan - FSU started this by putting unconquered on their ring. Seriously, that was really dumb. ACC champion would have been appropriate.

    Haha, go for it FSU! If that's what you'd like to brag about, go for it. Make as many excuses as you'd like too.

    @MikeGriffith

    "Georgia got left out, too, becoming the first No. 1 team in CFP history to topple out of the four-team playoff field the final week of the season.______MG

    Nice "narrative", Mike. It's BS, though...you know that right?

    The "Season" ended, the week before UGA lost....in the postseason SEC Championship “Game.”

    And, that's why Michigan's '23 Natty...will forever be tarnished and diminished. It was a political award, this year. Not the “first” time, either.

    Maybe, now that we have a semi-official playoff...it's gonna be hard to "pencil-whip" a team out of contention. It's gonna be tough to say, it wasn't won on the field. “They” still have their ways, though.

    For the record...i think Smart has UGA positioned “above” all that, now. The only way they can crook him and UGA, is to catch em injured and compromised....like they did in the SECCG.

    FSU, may not have been as good or better, after they “lost” their QB,. Who knows?...that's a decision for the gridiron.

    But, one thing is for “absolute” certain...UGA would've been much better on Dec 31 Than they were 1 month prior.…and Alabama wasn't that much better.

    What does that tell ya about their BS “Criteria”, now? Lol

    Who cares what they put on their rings. The Dawgs will live rent free in their heads forever.

    Go Dawgs!

    FSU should've had "IF" instead of Conquered on the ring..

    Hey, I'm OK with the FSU "Unconqured" ring….as "Arse Whooped By The Dawgs" wouldn't fit!

    FSU wasn't one of the 4 best teams in the country, even with Jordan Travis. Go Dawgs!

    Actually, the hobnail boot game was against Tennessee, not Auburn.

    … and UCF had about as many meaningful wins in 2017 as FSU in 2023. The only quality win the Seminoles had was against LSU at the very beginning of the season (The fact that Louisville was even ranked at the end of the season after losing its last three games was ridiculous.)

    Kinda reminds me of when UCF anointed themselves as National Champion.

    And that's the truttthhhh! Lol

    IMO...the Orange Bowl win VS FSU... was a preview of UGA's 1st game of '24...vs Clemson. The Dawgs are living on their own planet, these days. Clemson can't touch em, anymore that FSU. Especially, when they are 95% healthy [or better].…and, they should be, by the time they get ready to "Go Hunting" in August. Lol

    Let FSU, UCF, USF....and those other Florida Teams, fight over Dawg scraps. If they wanna be crowned..."Peninsula Champions"...fine by me. Lmao

    Go git em Big Red D. "Havoc" is the word of the year. Give em hell.
