Wife loves the guardians one. Tron wasn’t open when we were there. I’m not a Star Wars guy, but I was very impressed with what they had.

Yes indeed, just got back from a whirlwind 4 parks in 3 days trips since my wife had a conference. Always enjoy rise of the resistance, particularly when the wait is listed as 85 minutes but turns out to only be ~30. My wife is not a coaster person, but she did decide to go on tron, and her comment afterwards was, I'm just glad I don't have to worry about it anymore...

It took Alabama a 4th and Goal Hail Mary to beat an Auburn team that had just gotten blown out to New Mexico State at home. Are we to believe that is one of the best 4 teams in the country?

I hear you, but part of FSU's problem is they played their championship game against Louisville, who lost at home the week before to Kentucky, a weak SEC opponent. It's hard to evaluate conference strength since we have so few inter-conference matchups, but have to go on what we have.

Some could argue that Alabama got the pick over FSU thanks to Kentucky beating Louisville.

It sure isn't helpful for FSU's case. Further, using the CFP's final top 25 rankings, here are the ranked teams that bama and FSU played:

Bama: Texas (3), Georgia (6), Ole Miss (11), LSU (13), Tenn (21)
FSU: LSU (13), Louisville (15), Clemson (22)

I don't like the argument that teams with less losses should automatically be ranked higherbecause schedules are completely different. If you play more of the top teams, you're more likely to lose. One could argue that the SEC is overrated, but we don't have a lot a lot of comparison data, and the Louisville home loss to UK doesn't help (and FSU almost lost to BC at full strength!). These are the reasons why I've been pining for the expanded playoff, and again I'm pretty sure the ACC opposed it (perhaps because they didn't want to have to beat even more SEC teams), but that was pretty boneheaded because they have kept their teams out of the running.

On the flip side, this means that either of these QBs could go to Alabama which would not be good.
