ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit was on Mike & Mike radio show on Wednesday morning to discuss the latest College Football Playoff Rankings. The Florida State Seminoles came in at No. 3 in the rankings -- behind Alabama and Oregon -- despite being the only undefeated team from a Power 5 conference.

But when asked by Danny Kanell which of the top three teams he would least like to play against on a neutral field, Herbstreit went with the Seminoles.

"On a neutral field, I'd have a hard time with Jameis Winston," Herbstreit said. "Florida State, I feel like, is becoming. . . I said on the telecast during the Miami game, when I travel all around the country, I feel like Florida State has become the villain, the 'Darth Vader.' I feel like, whether it's because of Jameis Winston or it's because they're the defending champs or it's a combination thereof or if it's Jimbo Fisher, whatever it is, they seem to be the team that everybody's pulling against outside of Tallahassee."

Herbstreit doesn't think the Seminoles get enough credit for their ability to come back and win games.

"I happen to have a different point of view," he said. "I look at all these teams and I just kinda watch the games and the XOs and the football side of it. And I've four or five Florida State games this year. I don't know if anyone has seem them in person as much as I have. As much as people wanna criticize the way they dig themselves into a hole, I don't know why people don't wanna recognize what they do in the second half and the respect people should have for what they're doing with the pressure that's on them, being the defending champs, taking everybody's best shot and finding a way to come back and win games when it looks like they don't have a chance to win it. And the guy that's right in the middle of that is Jameis Winston."

"So, of all the teams that I would not wanna play on a neutral field, it would be Florida State," Herbstreit said. "With the combination of the talent that they have, along with the quarterback and the heart of the champion, they're gonna be a hard out for somebody."

Florida State (10-0, 7-0 ACC) hosts Boston College (6-4, 3-3 ACC) on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET. The game will be broadcast on ABC/ESPN2.
