Kirk Herbstreit goes on tirade against ‘despicable lunatic fringe’ FSU fans

Kirk Herbstreit goes on tirade against ‘despicable lunatic fringe’ FSU fans

Kirk Herbstreit lost it on angry Florida State football fans still fuming over the ACC champion’s exclusion from the College Football Playoff.

The ESPN college football analyst posted a lengthy response after a fan called into question why he had Alabama making it into the CFP even before FSU QB Jordan Travis season-ending injury.

Travis absence played a big part in the selection committee’s decision to pick one-loss Alabama over the undefeated Seminoles, which College Football Playoff chair Boo Corrigan acknowledged during an interview on ESPN.

But Herbstreits previous predictions have apparently bothered some college football fans and the comment on Wednesday was enough to set him off.

Because Alabama is BETTER!! Period! Herbstreit wrote in response on X. So is Texas. So is Michigan. So is Washington. So is Oregon. So is Georgia. I watch 10-15 games a week live from September-early December. I think Im allowed to have an opinion on who I think is BETTER!! If FSU doesnt like it is not The BEST 4 tell the conference commissioners to change the protocol to MOST DESERVING. Until then I and everyone else is certainly is allowed to give an opinion in a subjective discussion!! Dont like it-change it.

Icon Sportswire via Getty ImagesIts funny when FSU went ahead of The U Miami in 2000 after Char-ron Dorsey and the boys beat the Noles and FSU went instead of a deserving Canes team to the BCS Championship where they lost to Oklahoma I didnt hear from all of you about the system being rigged and its not fair. You were big fans of the turnout back then-of course most of you, in this despicable lunatic fringe, probably didnt even know about 2000 when the Noles got the benefit over a GREAT Miami team!

CFP grew ‘concerned’ about Florida State during ACC championship game

Herbstreit acknowledged the respect that he has had for the Florida State program dating back to Bobby Bowdens time patrolling the sideline in the late 70s and 80s and how the current situation sucks.

However, he contended that as an analyst, its his job to give his opinion and that there was no hidden agenda to his previous comments.

I have to give an opinion on who I think the best 4 teams are. Im not on the committee-I dont vote-I watch games-I analyze teams and I give my take. Thats it, Herbstreit said. And if you think I have an agenda or a motive Im sorry you feel that way but its wrong. I love this sport and care about it deeply and cant make everyone happy-I ask questions of the commissioners in the offseason to understand things clearly-Watch games and give my opinion.

If its for your team you love me and if its against you hate me. I wish it were different and hopefully next year with 12 teams it will be. I am a huge fan of Coach Mike Norvells and his team and wish the Noles nothing but the best.

Dont expect the controversy surrounding Florida States exclusion to die down any time soon, especially with the Florida Attorney General launching an investigation into the matter.
