anything worse than 3rd the last 2 weeks would have been highway robbery...? But a case could have been made for OSU to be anywhere from 2nd to 5th or 6th...? It's seemed painfully obvious that it would have been more of a tragedy if OSU made it in over Alabama rather than the other way around.

Alabama was getting voted 2nd because people think they are just better. OSU was getting voted 2nd just so there wouldn't be a rematch. I mean, c'mon.

It's legit to vote OSU second if you use conference championship as a tiebreaker

LSU is a pretty good team. The way Alabama played in that game was more impressive than many of OSU's wins.

It would have been legit to vote OSU second yes. But it them being voted 4th was legit also. Hell 2 weeks ago they were getting 7th and 8th place votes.

Does it really matter anymore, Bama is in the game. Anyone who voted OSU less than 3 did a disservice to that team though.

Unless Stanford whips them in the next month, then it was the smart pick?

I used that word because people think it's a tragedy that OSU didn't make it. Their fans more than others.

I'm very happy. But people are still upset about it. I'm not being a dick or anything. It's just not as ridiculous as some people think.
