Billy Packer went on a tirade about FPI yesterday.

I won't talk about what he said. He just showed that ESPN gets what they wanted, click bait.
But, I will tell you this, from an FSU perspective.
1. If FSU only has a 30% chance to be Clemson this year, then FSU is in a world of hurts. Based on what we are losing this year, if we only have a 3 in 10 chance of winning now, then we are years away from being ready to compete with Clemson on a regular basis. (Personally, I would put FSU's chances in the 40-45% range this year. As of today, Clemson should be favored. Things will probably change by the time the game is played, one way or the other. But, right now, Clemson should be favored.
2. FPI puts FSU an a roughly equal footing with NCSU, Cuse and Pitt. Norvell has to love that. (He will have his on version of the ROY bus, "We get no respect" speech.)
Other comments I have on FPI, in no particular order. 1. Ohio State has an 82% chance to make the playoffs. Ridiculous. 2. Texas is the 4th most likely team to make the playoffs. Ridiculous. 3. FSU is the 5th best team in the ACC.
Those are just things I remember off the top of my head. I'm not looking at the list right now. FPI is fun to talk about. But, it is not to be taken seriously.

He did which would make his comments very noteworthy

Are we to believe that we only have an 85% chance to beat Duke?

It was higher than that in 1989 I’m sure and look what happened.

It’s almost dishonest to use mathematical percentages to

represent something so subjective and disconnected from any remotely useful metrics. It’s guesswork presented as science.

It's inaccurate by nature, but frankly it doesn't feel that way; I've got Clemson going undefeated outright & Notre Dame as the most competitive opponent.

That's my way of thinking about this coming season, and with a place in the playoffs!!!! Now that I've put my prediction for our Tiger in writing, I can't and won't take it back

Welp, looks like the odds are for another undefeated season. Glad the "slump" is over.

We're literally favored by ESPN to win every game, & only one is by less than 72% (& it's Notre Dame, the one game that doesn't matter for the CFP & ACC).
If y'all haven't bet on the Tigers to make the CFP or win 12 games this year, the time is now, c'mon!
