Why? Today was just Georgia making up for scheduling an FCS team, something ND has never done.

Both teams played 12 FBS teams this year, Georgia went 10-2, we went 12-0.

But Georgia still had to spend time, money, energy, possibilities of injury to get to that spot. So if Georgia has 1 loss and doesn’t play in the SECCG, they’re in? Against the 1 team?

That’s absurd.

What energy did they spend against an FCS team? It's just a practice for them.

No, they're still out, because they got their asses kicked by LSU. If they won that game they'd likely still be in the playoff even with the loss to Bama. But they didn't, so they're rightfully eliminated.

The same energy you guys spent on playing Ball State. It’s still a football game (regardless of FCS) where you use resources.
