Keon Coleman Slams Georgia Bulldogs For Ignoring FSU Football’s NCAA Playoff Shutout
When it comes to being left out of the College Football Playoff, the former Seminole has strong feelings.
After a 13-0 season and an ACC Championship, Florida State was famously rejected from the College Football Playoffs. It has been six months since that incident. The pain and resentment that Seminole supporters felt following the committee’s historic slight on them haven’t gone away with time.
Wide receiver Keon Coleman, a former standout player for Florida State, believes that Georgia is solely to blame for the pandemonium. In the SEC Championship game versus Alabama, the Bulldogs had an opportunity to guarantee their place as the top club in the four-team tournament. Rather, they fell short, leaving the Seminoles on the outside looking in as the Crimson Tide and Texas Longhorns took their place.
Coleman discussed the snub and his emotions in the weeks that followed in-depth during a recent visit on Robert Griffin III’s “RG3 and The Ones” Podcast. He said that since none of Florida State’s ten draft selections from 2024 took part, the Orange Bowl didn’t really represent the program’s talent. Coleman thinks the Seminoles ‘would have sent a spear straight through’ Georgia in a genuine game.
“How many athletes did we draft? Ten or eleven? The only way to determine who will fare better in the NFL is to observe who we play against. They’re playing in the ‘Mad as H E L L’ Bowl, so of course they want to play,” Coleman remarked. They are upset over their defeat
Why are you upset because you lost? You guys think that just because you’re from Georgia, you should be able to enter? You would have learned who was superior to Georgia and Florida State if you had prevailed [in the SEC Championship]. We would have been the “matter bowl” players, you know. The bowl that was important. We’re not going to play you in a meaningless bowl. That is a time waster.”
You would have needed to visit us if you had prevailed and followed through on your obligations. The entire time, we would have been up performing this [the Tomahawk Chop]. We would have pierced you with a spear for all of that barking,” Coleman went on. “There’s not a bark, that’s deceased. Georgia chose to lose, so you would have found out, but the world might never know. We ought to question Alabama’s toughness. How come you all still choke?
Coleman firmly believes that had Georgia handled its business, Florida State would have advanced to the College Football Playoffs. However, he pointed out that the game is a business and that it was clear that his team’s prospects suffered when quarterback Jordan Travis was sidelined for the whole campaign due to a leg injury.
“It’s true that there is a lot of politics involved in collegiate and professional sports, but I won’t get into that because players will still do what they want to do. Ultimately, when Georgia fell to the teams who were already in, it was apparent that someone would need to step up to the plate in order for us to get admitted.
because Nick Saban and Alabama, Alabama in, defeat the top team,” Coleman remarked. “The team that defeated Alabama, however, went on to win the conference title and finish in the top 6, so I thought, ‘The politics is probably going to put Texas in.'” Although I really want us to get in, I’m thinking, “The politics of college football with its views and clicks—they have star power—we lost our star quarterback; they might slight us in that way and not let us in.” However, I’m thinking, “Man, I still hope we get in,” but as I previously mentioned, I have some understanding of how football is run. Although I disagree with it, I’m not the one receiving
compensated to decide those matters.”
The Seminoles realized their season was practically finished the moment the verdict was made public on national television. Twenty players from the two-deep that FSU released for the home finale vs North Alabama made the decision to transfer, opt out, or have surgery. That meant that the team that will play the Bulldogs in Miami Gardens would mostly consist of younger players and reserves.
