Maxwell Minute: Reaction to Florida State's Playoff Snub
Transcript
00:00 Sports Press, Rick Harrow, and another $1.3 trillion business in sports with your Maxwell
00:07 Minute, brought to you by the Maxwell Football Club.
00:10 Heard some rumblings in Tallahassee.
00:12 It is a four-bedroom house, but there are five or maybe six tenants that want in, and
00:18 it can't happen.
00:19 No lawsuit, although Curry Simon, who used to play for the Eagles and is now a state
00:23 rep, is threatening to file legislation.
00:26 Of course, he was an FSU guy.
00:28 The bottom line is that the impact, beyond the rhetoric, is that the payout will now
00:33 be about $4 million versus over $6 million if it were CFP for FSU.
00:38 Mike Norvell could have made up to $950,000 incremental additional bonus.
00:43 Now he's probably capped at $200,000.
00:46 Bottom line is that the SEC has had one team in in every one of the last 11 iterations
00:53 of the CFP 10+, and the bottom line again is it's about time the 12-team playoff kicks
00:59 in.
01:00 Most people think it should have happened a year earlier.
01:02 It's not true.
01:03 It's not true.
