Former NFL cornerback turned TV analyst Richard Sherman is not a fan of the college football committee’s decision to include FSU over Alabama in the college football playoffs.

One CFP committee member has gone on record to say that the committee didn’t believe FSU could be competitive in the playoffs due to QB Jordan Travis’ injury.

During Monday’s edition of ‘Undisputed’, Sherman went off on the college football playoff committee’s decision to leave FSU out of the playoffs.

“I have a huge problem with it. This is a huge problem with college sports, and that’s why I don’t watch it. I think it’s B.S,”“College used to be about the underdog story, about pageantry, about amateurism, and ‘any team at any given time can have a chance at a national title;’ now it’s become politics. Florida State went undefeated. And the only knock against them is their starting quarterback got hurt.”

Sherman went on to rip Alabama and the SEC to shreds for playing a “patty cake schedule” and being an “overrated conference.”

“The SEC plays mostly a ‘Patty Cake’ schedule,” “They play Middle Tennessee, they play Division I-AA and FCS schools the majority of the time when they are outside of schedule–outside of each other. They are an overrated conference.”

“Most of the time they [SEC teams] are playing nobody, “Outside of their conference, they are not playing ranked opponents, they are not playing great opponents. When they do, they lose.”
