Firstly, I was talking about Florida State without Jordan Travis, but it was unclear what you were referring to, so I was seeking clarification. I think a full strength Florida State team save for no Jordan Travis would go off about a 7.5-9 point dog against Georgia.
Secondly, I said Florida State earned the right to be there. Subjective opinions about "better" shouldn't factor into much until we're distinguishing among team with equal qualifications. Florida State was undefeated. Alabama and Texas were not. Florida State played in a Power 5 Conference and also played two legit teams out of conference. Texas and Alabama each played one serious out of conference game (against each other). This used to matter in college football. After doing all that has ever been required of a Power 5 team to make the playoff, Florida State was told "actually, no good, not enough" because of an injury to one player; therefore, the games don't really matter, because the committee's subjective opinion supersedes the games, which lead to what happened in the Orange Bowl. Georgia did not have the same scenario because nothing was "taken" from them. They simply lost a game. That's because it's REALLY hard to go undefeated, which is why FSU had earned a spot in the playoff. I think UGA would be favored tomorrow in a game against all the CFP teams as well as full strength FSU (with or without Jordan Travis), but they weren't even given consideration for the playoff, thereby showing the lack of consistency in the committee's argument.
