If Jordan Travis' injury had occurred late in the ACC championship game instead of week 12, not only would FSU have a more impressive win, there would also be no data to show that their offense couldn't function without him. It would be unknown. Pure conjecture. Instead, there was the additional data point of seeing how their offensive production got cut in half in their final two games (against much weaker competition than the other playoff teams) without a quality backup QB.
