<p><a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nhl/players/5586" href="https://www.thescore.com/nhl/players/5586">Auston Matthews </a>seems to have taken his game to another level.</p><p>The Toronto Maple Leafs superstar came into this season as arguably the most reliable goal-scorer in the NHL, but his ability to find the back of the net has gone from incredible to otherworldly in recent months.</p><p>Matthews registered a hat trick less than halfway through Saturday's 9-2 drubbing of the Anaheim Ducks. He racked up only 14:52 of ice time because of the lopsided nature of the contest. He added a pair of assists, giving him his first career five-point game.</p><div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div><figure class="article-segment--embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

"It's pretty remarkable," Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe said postgame.</p><p>Matthews has notched three goals in consecutive games for the second time this season. He's the first NHL player with back-to-back hat tricks on multiple occasions since Wayne Gretzky in 1983-84, according to <a href="https://twitter.com/SNstats/status/1759027428242948154">Sportsnet Stats</a>.</p><p>Keefe noted that other teams are well aware of the pace Matthews has been on, but perhaps the most impressive part of his game is that he keeps finding ways to light the lamp.</p><p>"As much as Auston has been scoring, you know teams are talking about him," Keefe said, adding, "And one of the greatest things about Auston is he continues to find ways to get available and get to spots."</p><p>Matthews also set a franchise record with his sixth total hat trick this season, which is the most for any player since Mario Lemieux had six in 1995-96.

"Definitely pretty cool."</p><p>The three-goal barrage puts Matthews' season total at 48 goals through 53 games, and he's now on pace for just under 75 tallies. No one has reached that rarefied air since Alexander Mogilny and Teemu Selanne each scored 76 during the 1992-93 campaign.</p><p>Matthews will look to add to his total Monday afternoon when the Leafs travel to St. Louis for a matinee against the Blues.</p>

<p>Despite a perfect 13-0 season, Florida State was on the outside looking in when the College Football Playoff semifinal participants were announced Sunday.</p><p>The Seminoles had to settle for the fifth spot in the rankings, watching Michigan, Washington, Texas, and Alabama get the coveted positions instead. </p><p>Florida State athletic director Michael Alford didn't mince words while offering his disappointment with the selection committee's decision.</p><div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div><p>"The consequences of giving in to a narrative of the moment are destructive, far-reaching, and permanent," Alford said in a <a href="https://seminoles.com/news/2023/12/3/football-statement-from-michael-alford-vice-president-and-athletics-director-florida-state-university">statement</a>. "Not just for Florida State, but college football as a whole."</p><p>Florida State became the first Power 5 conference champion to go undefeated and yet still be left out of the top four since the College Football Playoff was instituted in 2014. Texas and Alabama were selected ahead of the Seminoles despite both suffering losses, which Alford believes to be a travesty.</p><p>"The argument of whether a team is the 'most deserving or best' is a false equivalence," Alford said. "It renders the season up to yesterday irrelevant and significantly damages the legitimacy of the College Football Playoff."</p><p>Florida State head coach Mike Norvell was equally incensed by the decision, questioning the committee's process and what the selection will ultimately mean for college football.</p><p>"I am disgusted and infuriated with the committee's decision today to have what was earned on the field taken away because a small group of people decided they knew better than the results of the games," Norvell <a href="https://x.com/FSUFootball/status/1731387330278351135">said</a>. "What is the point of playing games?"</p><p>"What happened today goes against everything that is true and right in college football," he added. "A team that overcame tremendous adversity and found a way to win doing whatever it took on the field was cheated today. It's a sad day for college football."</p><p>The decision by the selection committee was made in large part due to the quarterback situation for FSU. Star QB <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///ncaaf/players/128710" href="https://www.thescore.com/ncaaf/players/128710">Jordan Travis</a> sustained a devastating injury against North Alabama, and backup <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///ncaaf/players/148653" href="https://www.thescore.com/ncaaf/players/148653">Tate Rodemaker</a> missed the ACC Championship Game against Louisville, leaving the Seminoles down to their third-stringer at the most important position. This adversity should have fueled Florida State's candidacy rather than hurt it, according to Alford.</p><p>"The fact that this team has continued to close out victories in dominant fashion facing our current quarterback situation should have enhanced our case to get a playoff berth earned on the field," Alford said.</p><p>Travis echoed Alford's thoughts, lamenting his injury coming so late in the season and unfairly, in his mind, taking the opportunity away from his teammates.</p><figure class="article-segment--embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">devastated. heartbroken. In so much disbelief rn, I wish my leg broke earlier in the season so y’all could see this team is much more than the quarterback.

The hope is for the UFC to rebook Jones versus Miocic at some point in 2024 once Jones has healed from his injury, reports <a href="https://twitter.com/marcraimondi/status/1717050104522350603">ESPN's Marc Raimondi</a>.</p><p>The fight was supposed to be the first heavyweight title defense for Jones after he secured the belt in his debut in the weight class by choking out Ciryl Gane just over two minutes into the first round of their UFC 285 fight in March. Miocic hasn't fought in the Octagon since losing the heavyweight title to Francis Ngannou at UFC 260 in March 2021.</p><p>UFC 295 is scheduled for Nov. 11 at Madison Square Garden in New York City.</p>

"We had the opportunity to do that tonight and we did it.

"We've got a special group in here."</p><p>The Kraken become the seventh Western Conference team to clinch a postseason berth this season, leaving only one up for grabs. The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames are currently tied for the last spot with 89 points, while the Predators sit one point back.

Vegas managed to not only make the playoffs in its first season but went all the way to the Stanley Cup Final before losing to the Washington Capitals. The Golden Knights made the playoffs in each of their first four seasons before missing out for the first time last year.</p><p>The Kraken have four games remaining in the regular season, concluding their schedule with a pair of contests against Vegas.</p>
