TAKEAWAYS from Georgia's blowout win in the Orange Bowl | First Take 

But like Acho brought up, the portals schedule is solidified to when it is, they can't move that. So the only way to adjust the overlap is to move the bowls themselves.

Good point. If there was NCAA leadership, the Pac 12would still be alive. ESPN and Fox causing the fire then complaining about lack of fire dept is hypocritical

Irrelevant, FSU got crushed by Georgia 2nd and 3rd string players, especially after seeing the other playoff games, the committee got it right.

I lean towards Dan's take. Also, I believe they should put a cap on how many times a player can hit the transfer portal(other than situations like illness,coaching changes, military). Some people have transferred the same amount of years that they have been in college.

This is a bad take. After the first transfer you have to sit out a year or be graduate, like it has always been. The one transfer is a good idea because prior it was a case by case and up to someone’s opinion

Dude, you guys gotta stop blaming it on the transfer portal. FSU on its best day won't beat a tough Georgia squad. What messed up the national championship last year when Georgia DID THE SAME THING????????

Transfer Portal isn't the problem. If coaches are allowed to leave on a whim for more money why can't players decide to leave when they feel it's for a better situation. Let's not pretend all the problems came from transfer portals.

What do you expect though, if you’re for sure leaving for another team, why would you risk getting injured? Look at what the broncos did with Russ, they benched him because they’re gonna trade him and don’t want him getting hurt

“bowl games” are a waste of time. Playing for a nothing trophy vs a nobody team with nothing to gain. Real fun

​@@deplorablelibertarianAre we acting like Georgia didn't lose to Alabama?? A team with no offensive line. A team with a wingback playing quarterback. A young team. A team whose center can't snap the ball. That's who Georgia lost to on at a neutral site. Florida State at full strength vs Georgia would've been a good competitive game

They were also missing what 8-9 starters on defense and both there starting rb and both Wrs

Exactly

Yes, transfer portal wasn’t the reason. It was more of a statement like you said. If I was in position of a coach and my team got robbed the same way as fsu, I would do the same thing, I wouldn’t sign my team up for a bloodbath show with a top team in the SEC with absolutely no reward for it, and therefore risk my current and perhaps future starters getting injured in the most meaningless bowl game as I have said, just for some beer addicts to delight on it. Indeed, it is crazy how some fans thought it would be an “amazing” matchup. In terms of the committee and espn a-likes, all they want is money, they knew it wasn’t going to be a great matchup considering the fsu situation but they’re mad they didn’t get the desired amount of profit off of it

he's ridiculous. but not underrated.

You're joking right?

Not anymore. It's Pandora's Box. Too late. The coaches made it about money and opportunities for decades. Now the players want the same and why shouldn't they. Let's stop the bull$hit. Have a NFL model and commissioner. Then we will get some sense of normalcy. Until then it is what it is.

These portal players would have start at another school for the spring semester..can't do it earlier.

He’s so right about the transfer portal and the schedule, like what is college football doing having the title game that late into January. Start the season earlier in august.

Also loved Sam bringing up the age old topic that most sports analysts and even fans have forgotten. These college players are STUDENTS as well. Student first, athlete second. They love to judge these players and their performances under the same microscope as professional athletes but always disregard the fact they are attending school that involves classes, schedules, deadlines, projects, etc.

Fairly obvious

The problem is, this is COLLEGE sports, so the academic schedule takes priority over the athletic one. The only way to prevent the portal from overlapping with bowl season is to move the bowl season since the portal HAS TO be when it is.

They are meaningless they are there to make NCAA more money how do these games benefit the player

It's not just that ESPN owns the broadcasting rights to nearly every bowl game, it's the fact that they make only a handful matter. For example, College Gameday always does an episode at the Rose Bowl regardless or whether or not it is a Semifinal that season or even if the Sugar Bowl was the bigger and more popular Semifinal match up the nation than the Rose Bowl. This is important because for people like me who was born and raised in SEC Country, we don't care about the Rose Bowl when it's not a semifinal nor if it wasn't the BCS National Championship Game during the first half of BCS era. In fact, in the post WWII era, the SEC has been very irrelevant in the Rose Bowl. Because Gameday continues to do annual shows at the Rose Bowl, they are telling us what Bowl games matter. Personally, get rid of the meaningless lower tier Bowl games like Boca Raton, Myrtle Beach, & Pop Tart bowls, increase Bowl eligibility from 6-6 to 8-4, and get rid of conference tie ins and go by the oldest played bowl games, bowl season outside of the NY6 just might matter again.

College Football has definitely changed in a lot of different aspects. I do see and respect everyone's opinion because I see it from both sides. I feel and do agree that NIL and Transfer Portal are destroying and ruining College Football. I don't feel student athletes should get any money at all but call me old fashioned old school cuz I am honestly I don't agree with it I grew up in 70s 80s 90s etc where College football players played for the love of game their school worked hard in school and on field to earn their dreams of making to next level. Transfer Portal needs to be adjusted and modified in alot of ways I can understand it helps teams but also hurts teams. Looking at it from a student athlete point of view I can understand why and respect their decision if they choose to enter Portal. CFP is also ruining College football just like BCS and AP/COACHES POLL IN the past moral of story each and every year College Football = CONTROVERSY. Like Coach Kirby Smart stated something needs to be done now and changed in college football it's definitely out of hand with controversy bias favoritism but most of all MONEY MONEY MONEY MAKES ME SICK CUZ I've been a College Football diehard fan for 43 years. NIL, Transfer Portal, CFP and MONEY is ruining and destroying College Football and im about done watching it follow recruiting like have for years etc. It's down right PATHETIC. FACTS!!! 💯

@ncgolfpro23 There’s a reason why the blue bloods formed during those time periods, because those schools found ways to pay their players when other schools couldn’t, NIL has actually evened the playing field a little bit by giving non blue bloods a chance to LEGALLY pay their players.

None of that is an issue. It's the CFP committee, ESPN,ETC.

@richardtravick5794 I totally agree I forgot to mention the Networks ESPN analysts etc CFP committee etc

​@@ncgolfpro23If coaches get paid, schools make mad money off of these players that love the game, therefore players should be compensated for their commitment to the school and the their hard work on the field. Why is it that you can be semi-pro or pro as a teen in soccer in Euro, tennis worldwide, and baseball in the minor leagues.... so those athletes are the exact same age as college football players. Sooooo..

And UGA didn't feel robbed? We wanted to prove we were THAT team and did. Bulldogs pulled the curtain down on the Committee.

No you didn’t cause you lost to Bama. That was a play in game and you lost!

Its hilarious georgia didn't get to avenge the bama loss cause fsu didn't play 😂 63-3 and won nothing but a bowl of oranges....thats tough id be mad too 😂

Exactly why fsu will continue to be a mid program

Fsu is one of the greatest football schools, both now and historically. At worst, fsu is 10th best football school ever. About 100 other d1 schools would trade their history for fsu

Actually the supreme Court hasn't ruled on it yet. They just made a statement of how they would likely rule after ruling on a case about the NCAA limiting scholarship benefits.

The Supreme Court is fickle depending on who is in there. They have changed their opinions on many subjects before. It's amazing how NIL must be allowed for college players but for typical workers companies can force you to sign a non-compete clause to limit your employment opportunities. Those clauses can even stay in effect after they fire you.

@@88jaspersimmonsFSU had a chance to show what type of team they were by the end of the season when they played Louisville in the ACC championship. And they suited up and showed everyone what type of team they were in that game before the decision. And then after the decision they showed what type of team they were again by giving up. They owed their fan base and themselves more respect.

​@@Spithatruththey showed what they were made of by holding a team that averaged 30 ppg to 3.

Yep. Pretty much. It’s a joke

Your not an FSU fan. You view this as surface as everybody else. The reality is those guys that opted out came back to play in last year bowl game and decided to return for another year, ALL FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP RUN. That was the goal and when they were told their games didn't matter they were that hurt. Thats how much they put into this season. So its understandable to make that quick decision from their perspective. Would have been great to have them, but I don't blame them for not putting their future on the line any further after they proved to everyone already they should have been in the top 4. There was nothing more to prove. The adults (in the committee) made a business decision vs. honoring the integrity of the game. So you can't blame these young men for doing the same. To say they should have proved what they already proved is you feeling entitled as a viewer/fan of being entertained. And not looking at the reality of the situation. 2) Georgia was coming off of a loss and they didn't want to end on a loss so their players decided to come back and finish strong with a W (Kirby said this in their pre Orange bowl press conference). Props to them. But these are two different circumstances and people are downplaying the hurt after OPTING IN FOR AN ENTIRE SEASON for a Championship. Georgia couldn't be that mad. They earned a loss in the SEC championship, easier for them to opt in the game.

​@@jamaal8786 Agree to disagree. You already lost thinking you are the judge on who is and who is not a fan. Just because I won't blindly agree with certain actions I'm not a fan? Ok.

I'm sure they were hoping to have and actual competition.

And they looked like a bunch of children with how they handled it, not a top 4 caliber team.

​@@Anthony-wv9kdNo they didn't because both games came down to the wire. 1 in OT. FSU barely could win against Louisville. That game was horrible with starters. And the backup QB. They would of lost in CFP. You're speaking from hindsight. No matter who was in 2 teams were going to lose yesterday. So what? then their fans will say what you just said.

To you idiots in the comments Georgia does have more depth. That is the advantage of winning two nattys but scoring on a team that was just curb stomped for two and a half quarters while fresh is not the same as scoring on them while both sides are fresh.

I think this has to be the restriction. Maybe with exceptions and an ability to have a waiver (grad students, Tez Walker situation, etc.), but the current transfer portal system is not helping the game. Something has to change, and it is either going to have to be timeline-wise since the portal cannot move due to academic restrictions or we "punish" players for jumping ship.

Why does TCU's loss to Georgia define them as a program, but Florida getting blown the f&ck out by Nebraska was never used to define what Florida could be?

Only FSU seems to think bowl games are meaningless. By not showing up they can whine about being left out without proving they belonged in the playoffs.

I don't even want the playoff system for college football either. The old bowl system worked fine. Everyone is gonna complain no matter what the format is.

then the best players will just be listed as "injured"

Not So Simple - The scholarship cannot encompass potential post-season play, because that would be unfair to players on teams that go to post-season, who would be penalized for not playing that extra game, where players on teams that don't play post-season, logically, therefore cannot be exposed to penalty for not playing in a game that doesn't happen. Ostensibly, you would be penalizing players for being good enough to position the team to be bowl-eligible. It absolutely could backfire differently, also - players would become LESS incentivized about team performance, so long as their individual stats position them favorably for an upcoming draft. They may begin making "business decisions" where not putting out a supreme effort, if that effort would mean the team becomes bowl eligible, where then SOMEONE LIKE YOU would then proceed to strip them of their scholarship. It's always what the players owe the school - not what the players could reasonably deserve. I don't understand how Americans, purportedly who favor the working class...always see fit to put the onus to make sacrifices on the working class, not the "executives" who run the industry.

@@shanewoods1980 "But you know someone has to play the victim in order to get recognition" For FSU, sure but their point is legitimate. However, this argument falls flat when you consider the 2009-2012 G5 lawsuits. This was a nuclear approach taken by multiple conferences because they believed there was no other option, and its difficult to argue against them. In 2008 the MWC and WAC conference champions went undefeated and both were snubbed. This wasnt the first time. It previously occured to these conferences in 2002, 2004 (2 teams), 2006, and 2007. But even at that point instead of just crying about, they did something about it. The MWC submitted an 8-team playoff to the NCAA and all conferences for acceptance, and it didnt even significantly favor the G5 in format. All Power conferences rejected it nonetheless. So what do you do, when youve been brutally snubbed 5 times in the last 7 years and you tried to inspire more competition but it was rejected? Your left with the only option left - sue the f&ck out of the league. Which is what happened. And it didnt get any easier. 2008-2011 was the golden era of the G5. This era saw some absolutely MONSTER TEAMS. In 2009 and 2010 the MWC and WAC champions went a combined 51-1; in 09 ranked #1, #4 in offense and #1 and #8 in defense, #1, #2 in MOV; in 10 ranked #2, #4 in offense, #1, #2 in defense and #1, #2 in MOV. The teams combined for 16 Top 25 wins including wins over the ACC Champ x2, PAC Champ and B10 Champ - in fact they went 11-0 vs the P5 by a combined 458-169. When you have a decade of consistent snubbing and enough evidence to disprove any argument on the planet, its not about playing the victim card anymore. Theres undeniable evidence that the league is corrupt af, which is in fact why the US Senate took the case federally and DOJ sued the league for anti-trust behavior. The CFP is the only reason these lawsuits stopped, but clearly the CFP didnt actually resolve any of these issues.

That would be pathetic. Winning programs don't act like passive aggressive soccer moms.

That would make FSU a weak program. UGA had more of an argument to be in the top 4 yet they came to play regardless. FSU had to prove they deserved to be there and tucked their tails instead
