News Article: Will FSU snub Orange Bowl?

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?
I hope they do, just to prove how idiotic this all is. If they even threaten to boycott the bowl, I'm using whatever means I have at my disposal as the head of the Orange Bowl to find a team that wants to be there.
You wanted money for the ACC buyout in the summer, you flirted leaving your conference....now you're threatening to keep a huge payout for conference from happening? The ACC commish needs to nip this in bud, but he's joined the pity party along with Florida politicians.
You're in a system with rules, but when you don't get your way you want to change the rules. That's toddler level intelligence.

It's a lot of money and there may be repercussions but FSU wants no part of Georgia. They want to keep their "Perfect Season" unsullied. Also, they have the argument that these games don't matter because of players sitting out/going pro/transferring.
They won't boycott the game, but I wish they would, because if they did, it would quickly make things do a 180 and they would go from everyone feeling sorry for them to everyone piling on them.
Even if they show up, they aren’t going to show up. That’s sad.
There could also be future ramifications as well if they do that, beginning as early as next season. People with power normally have looooooong memories and if they think they got snubbed by the selection process this season. Tick off the wrong people and you could see yourself getting "explained out of" next year's rankings, purposively given a lower ranking to make it harder.
FSU might as well play. Perhaps UGA has some players that opt out (maybe Bowers) and also one has to wonder how motivated UGA is after the SECCG loss.
I hope all the UGA players play and are at full strength. It's the first time in forever I'll be a DAWG fan.
I thought they wanted to prove that they should have been chosen. I’d be playing that up if I were Norvell and the players. Seems like they are more interested in being victims. It’s already old. Look at Bama’s approach last year…Do that and prepare for the future!!!!

I just hope that Georgia will be into this game and not checked out since they didn’t make the Championship Game.
I wonder if the Orange Bowl would sue the ACC for lost revenue...
Ah, it brings out the poet in me.
FSU is out of the playoffs
and they really see no uptakes.
"We're unbeaten!" they cried,
and the committee replied,
"That's what you get for playing cupcakes!"

We are talking about FSU, now. They got back to Tallahassee and started listening to everyone. Their mind frame is done.
