Deion Sanders played college football at Florida State, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s upset about the committee’s controversial decision to leave the undefeated ACC champs out of the College Football Playoff.
In fact, the Colorado head coach agrees with the selection of Alabama at No. 4.
Speaking with Dan Le Batard on Monday, Sanders was asked if he was among the disappointed FSU fans out there. He said that he couldn’t be too upset because he recruits against Florida State now. He also added that he looked at the decision from a business and entertainment standpoint.

Sanders knew the committee couldn’t leave Alabama and Nick Saban out of the playoff when the alternative was a Florida State team without quarterback Jordan Travis. Sanders actually thought that Georgia and Kirby Smart should be most upset to be left out after spending virtually the entire season at No. 1 and winning 29 straight games.
Mike Norvell won’t agree with Sanders on that one, though.
