If it came down to FG's, FSU would beat us.

That's what scares me about playing them. Many times, big games DO come down to kickers. I think I'd take a one-legged blind kid over Griffith.

Hopefully, Griffith will be fully healthy in a month.

Out of all the games I've seen today, even though they prolly won't be in the play-off, I think outside of Bama, Ohio St has been the most impressive looking team in all facets of the game & would be a handful if we played them..Oregon & TCU offenses both looked great & would give our D a fit as well..But..I honestly thin Ohio St has an argument to made about them getting into the 4 team play-off..It's the 1st year & the system is already in a mess..And will leave out some teams that's got an argument to be made of them being included in the play-off..I think teams will be moaning & groaning about being left out..And will push to make it a 8-team play-off in the coming years..JMHO..

If the playoffs were based on who is playing the best right now, Arkansas would be in the final four. Thankfully it's not and supposed to be based on a whole body of work.

That's true & I agree 100% with ya..Ohio St has lost only one game & prolly wont make it in the play-off because I've seen everyone on TV saying TCU or Baylor will be in the playoff & Ohio St will be left out..I think Ohio st's body of work this year has been as impressive as any of the 1 loss teams has..As long as Bama remains #1..I don't care who the other 3 teams gets in with us..I just think Ohio St should be one of those teams & from all the TV commentators have all said Ohio St won't be in the top 4 & makes it into the play-off..

Arkansas lost to Mizzou last week, but I get your point and agree. That is why I will not be upset if we get left out. I am old school and believe that every game matters.

agree... yet it would not surprise me if Ohio State is the 4th team and the Big 12 is left completely out while they sort out their One True Champion.

Yeah. Also Jameis could give Alabama problems as well.

bradley30 · Dec 6, 2014

Nah. I think we matchup very well with them.

russtang · Dec 6, 2014

We may be favored but any of the other 3 will be a tough out.

You're correct. It's not going to be a cakewalk by no means.

CrimsonHammer · Dec 7, 2014

Ohio State should jump right in at #3. If FSU was #4 before then they really didn't show anything worthy of moving up. TCU should have never been #3 in the first place, but what Ohio State did to Wisconsin tonight is far more impressive than anything TCU did all year, and TCU lost their own conference's bowl selection tiebreaker to Baylor. Until the Big XII has a true champion, they should be left out in the cold. As for FSU, I'd rather play them first than the complete unknown that is Ohio State. Is OSU that good with their third QB or did Wisconsin just fall apart after things started going badly for them? I'd rather let our coaches see another game before having to plan for them, assuming we beat FSU.

CoastGhost · Dec 7, 2014

Depends on what we scheme up for the long ball. They have a guy that can throw it and guys that can catch it. If we can limit the damage by long pass, we beat them like baby seals.

I think tOSU deserves the 4th spot, but should be below undefeated FSU due to the VA Tech loss.

and then the committee matches them up in a bowl game.

Ldlane · Dec 7, 2014

FSU's defense has been steadily going down hill and we would have our way. Our defense is not as bad as you guys let on. We would have our way with them.

They already have a tie breaker based on h2h play in the rule book despite what the commish says! Baylor wins according to the rule!

I don't fear those Basketball on grass teams as much as I did before. From a pure physical standpoint, I just feel like FSU would match up with us the best out of all of these teams.

Me too, I see nothing fancy or cute with CSI Tallahassee -- just beef.

bamacpa · Dec 7, 2014

I think any of the playoff teams will give us struggles because of our secondary issues at times. All of them can throw the ball, and big plays will occur against us. Can any of them stop us ?

I think Florida State would give us the biggest problems.
