The women’s NCAA Tournament is off and running, but Saturday’s action was not without a bit of drama and controversy.

Hayes: Take Your Pick

Jan 24, 2024 | saturdayroad.com | Matt Hayes

The pick is, without question, the worst decision in the history of the NFL Draft. The Chicago Bears not only selected Mitch Trubisky over Patrick Mahomes in the 2017 NFL Draft, they traded up to get Trubisky — instead of taking one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the league.

Jan 18, 2024 | saturdayroad.com | Matt Hayes

This only ends in the most dangerous and debilitating ways for all involved. They’ve both known this now since Florida State began rattling the ACC’s cages about revenue sharing and the Grant of Rights and falling behind the rest of college football.

For FSU, for the ACC — and for anyone involved moving forward.

You can’t ask for more from Florida State than winning every game on its schedule. The 13-0 Seminoles were the first (and last!) unbeaten “Power 5” champion to get left out of the 4-team College Football Playoff. What could FSU have done different? The obvious answer here is to turn back the clock and keep quarterback Jordan Travis from getting injured in the North Alabama win on Nov. 18.
