I find this whole situation ironic as it is THE biggest example EVER of "What goes around Comes around." FSU has made history not because of all the reasons people are flinging around but because in an ironic twist of fate FSU was THE first team to be the beneficiary of a SNUB at the dawn of the humans picking teams for the National Championship game.
The Bowl Coalition (Predecessor to the BCS along with the Bowl Alliance) used to pick two teams to play for the National Championship. They started in 1992 and they chose #1 Miaimi and #2 Alabama to play for the NC which Alabama won 34-13.
The following year Nebraska was #1 and undefeated as Big 8 Champions, West Virginia was #2 and undefeated as Big East Champions and Florida State was #3 at 11-1 and were ACC Champions. The Bowl Coalition Committee SNUBBED West Virginia that year and chose #3 Florida State to play #1 Nebraska for the National Championship. Officially, they chose FSU because "They felt that FSU was the better team despite WV being undefeated. (Sounds familiar). By today's logic, the ACC bias was showing.
Unofficially everyone knew the real reason was FSU was the better brand over WV and would draw more interest and thus better TV ratings for the game. Business decision. This caused quite the uproar across the college football landscape. This combined with the fact that during this Era, the PAC 10 and Big 10 were the primary focus of the sportswriters (Gifting Era) and the Power Brokers (Bowl Coalition and Bowl Alliance Era).
During those eras, the SEC was thought of as a "Weak" conference and their teams were often over-looked when it came to the National Championship scene. SEC fans were growing tired of it and started getting loud in voicing their displeasure.
They eventually tossed the Bowl Alliance (which followed the Bowl Coalition) in favor of the BCS because the BCS didn't allow humans to choose which two teams would play for the Natty. Computers chose thus removing the human bias element from the equation. This was supposed to fix all the issues with team selections but as fate would have it, people were not happy with that either. The human bias was removed from the picture during the BCS Era, things changed. The computers did not care who the media darlings were anymore and as a result the number crunching computers often chose SEC teams to be part of the Natty thus causing an uproar again. The shoe was on the other foot now.
The human bias couldn't affect the outcome so now the former power brokers were not happy and thus enlisted their buddies in the media to start a campaign against the BCS formula. It worked. They tossed the BCS in favor of the 4 team playoff format where humans and their bias were once again in control of the money flow. Fast forward to 2023 and here we are and with the return of the bias equation which in itself morphed during the BCS Era as the power brokers now looked at the SEC differently because the Computers basically shoved the fact that SEC football was Championship caliber material too in their face.
FSU is now on the wrong side of the SNUB. Like it or not, Alabama is the better brand and with FSU having been irrelevant for the last decade in the national landscape of college football, Bama was the easy choice. So while FSU was the first beneficiary of a SNUB they will also be the last victim of the SNUB as I do not think there will be much merit in the cries of a team that was over-looked for the 12th spot in the playoffs
next year or any year after that.
