News Article: Will FSU snub Orange Bowl?

[Cruloc]

Press Conference was cancelled because both coaches were out doing other coaching duties per Rivals.

But that doesn't fit the narrative.....all it takes is someone with a platform running with a false story.

Interesting that this has 3 pages. I've not heard anything over on the FSU boards (I am a member of the Osceola (Rivals)) about a boycott since someone posted last Sunday. I've seen more smoke about leaving the ACC sooner than later. A lot has to do with the fact that there were 5 members on the CFP committee with ties to the ACC. Most think that a "boycott" is irrational and they would just lose money. Seems like more click bait for Pate and the other talking heads.

They ought to leave the ACC. The conference let them down when they voted against going to the 12-team format early...

I would not do that. It only shows you do NOT belong in the CFP. Go beat Georgia and prove your case.
One FSU fan wanted a protest boycott. He wanted to finish 13-0. WHAAAAT? Isn't that admitting you will be 13-1 after Georgia?

UGA is going to destroy FSU. The Noles have no offense and there is no way they are going to consistently move the ball against the UGA defense. FSU would only refuse to play if they want to avoid humiliation.

Psychology Today: Motivated Reasoning

To maintain positive self-regard, people (unwittingly) discount unflattering or troubling information that contradicts their self-image. Individuals engage in motivated reasoning as a way to avoid or lessen cognitive dissonance, the mental discomfort people experience when confronted by contradictory information, especially on matters that directly relate to their comfort, happiness, and mental health. Rather than re-examining a contradiction, it’s much easier to dismiss it.

It's kind of difficult to take the opinions of a never was QB, a wanna be LSU analyst and a never will be a meaningful head coach ever again guy yapping for an hour.

They better so called snub it or they will get beat like a drum and everyone will see why they were not in the CFP,... Might be the smartest thing they have done since 12/3/23.
