Another loss. That’s good. I am known for looking at the worst possible outcomes in life, so here’s what the FSU football team and its fans could be looking at:
1) We could have a 7-6 season. This would happen if we lose to Florida, Miami/VT in the ACC championship game, and our bowl game. This after being 7-1 at one point. Right now that’s difficult to call mostly because our bowl opponent is unknown, but a strong case can be made for why we will be 7-5 going into that bowl game.
2) We could qualify for a BCS bowl as an unranked team. After today’s loss to Clemson we will probably be unranked, having come into the game ranked #17. A loss to Florida would give us even fewer votes. If by some miracle we win the ACC championship game we would go to a BCS bowl, but might not earn enough points by virtue of that single victory to make it back into the Top 25. I would request to play the winner of the Big East, who undoubtedly will also be a team that does not deserve a BCS bid.
