ACC commissioner Jim Phillips was not pleased with the College Football Playoff committee’s decision to leave Florida State on the outside looking in after the top four teams to compete for the national title were announced.
The committee selected Michigan at No. 1, Washington at No. 2, Texas at No. 3 and No. 4 was Alabama. During Sunday’s CFP selection show, committee chair Boo Corrigan said that FSU was a “different team through the first 11 weeks” with star quarterback Jordan Travis, who suffered a season-ending injury against North Alabama on Nov. 18.
Despite Travis’s absence, FSU (13-0) remained undefeated with wins against North Alabama, Florida and in the ACC title game against Louisville on Saturday. Each of the top four teams also won their respective conference championships as well.
