I know they are. I think they're overrated and probably the weakest of the top teams. I want to play them badly. With that said, they aren't getting left off. Consider the politics. It has nothing to do with whether they're the best.
The only games FSU has won that were not squeekers: Citadel, NC State, Wake Forest, Syracuse, and Virgina. And they only had 2 20+ point wins all season.
Why are you trying to make a case? They're going to get in the top four. I really don't see any way they're left off.
The committee already had Florida State at #4 coming into this week, even though all the teams above them had 1 loss. So they are looking at quality of wins. Now Ohio State destroyed Wisconsin while FSU had another close game.
Mine would be 1. Alabama 2. Oregon 3. Florida State 4. Ohio State Say what you want about FSU, but they are undefeated, and did schedule Notre Dame, Florida and Oklahoma State out of conference. As for the Big 12 schools, I am using the argument that everyone here in Texas used on me when Oregon was in the Pac 10. They can't take a team seriously that doesn't have a championship game.
Going undefeated by barely beating 2nd and 3rd rate teams is less impressive than losing 1 close game to a top team, but for the most part dominating your schedule. Anyway, good for the Ducks they left FSU in, they are about to get their win streak ended.
