The School Soccer Playoff choice committee is on the verge of the one state of affairs it desperately hoped to keep away from: A prime crew shedding its beginning quarterback within the remaining week of the season.
No. 5 Georgia noticed QB Carson Beck endure an obvious damage to his throwing arm on the ultimate play of the primary half of the SEC championship Saturday and was dominated out for the rest of the sport towards No. 2 Texas.
Followers across the sport keep in mind what occurred to Florida State final yr all too properly. After FSU went undefeated within the common season, the crew was not noted of the then-four crew School Soccer Playoff in favor of an Alabama squad at full energy.
The snub unleashed unbridled fury from Tallahassee, one million or so sizzling takes and almost destroyed the ACC. It seems we could also be headed for a redux in 2024.
We’ll discover out what the committee makes of the damage on Sunday throughout the official playoff subject unveiling, however the precedent set by final yr’s choice already looms giant — as school followers have been fast to level out.
The excellent news for the committee is that it’s lots simpler to make this name with 12 groups within the subject than 4.
If Carson Beck is damage, Georgia is eradicated from the playoff.
Proper CFP committee?

Guidelines are guidelines if Beck is out. Florida state followers know what I’m speaking about.

If Carson Beck is actually damage, and Georgia appears to be like unhealthy and loses … is the committee going to be according to how they handled Florida State final yr?

So Georgia with out their beginning QB can’t make the playoffs it doesn’t matter what proper? 👀
Even when they win the convention…
Ain’t that what they advised FSU final yr?

The irony is that, identical to final yr, Alabama is the crew that stands to learn from a QB damage.
