Part of the issue here is, every other conference should be against a 1 loss SEC team jumping OSU. If the SEC's perceived superiority allows it to happen in this scenerio, whats to stop it from happening over an undefeated team from one of the other conferences. They will not allow that precedent to be set.

Think this is a non-issue. Hard to set a precedent for anything with the 4 team playoff coming next season

Check back to 1966 and see how Alabama was denied a 3rd straight Nat'l Championship while undefeated. Sh!t happens.

I agree that other conferences don't want this precedent to be set. But the problem with this reasoning is this particular Ohio State team is just not that good. In most seasons, you've got to be pretty good to get through the Big 10 undefeated, but not in 2013. Ohio State isn't even a top-10 team, IMO. They're in the 15-20 range.
