This represents the first time in the 25 seasons dating back to the BCS Era that an unbeaten P5 team was not given an opportunity to play for a national championship
Games don't matter.

Consider that this FSU team just watched their leader get gruesomely injured and they responded - for him - by only winning. On the road, and at a neutral-site against a Top 15 team.
FSU did everything it was supposed. And more.
