Eh, maybe I'm old fashioned. I just think winning all your games in a power conference should be worth more than it apparently is.

Is FSU really in a power conference?

I expected to see committee to have the following

1. Bama
2. Oregon
3. Ohio State
4. FSU

OR

1. Oregon
2. Bama
3. FSU
4. Ohio State

I think TV and the committee is hoping to have a reason for a traditional Rose Bowl matchup of Pac 12 vs Big 10 and SEC vs FSU in Sugar.

Ohio State QB injury may have thrown a major monkey wrench into the plan.

I still think that was the plan for a few weeks and TCU is just taking Ohio State place for right now at least and that is the reason for the jump of FSU. Oregon vs TCU in Rose and leave an all south matchup in the Sugar.

If I was not a Bama fan I would be pulling for complete chaos with Bama, Oregon, TCU, FSU, Ohio State and Baylor all losing...

TCU 31 Minnesota 0

I laugh every time someone says this. Yes, TCU won by more, a lot more. TCU also played at home in 90 degrees. OSU played @ minny in the low teens with snow...

OSU played like crap in that game, and I fully admit that, but a score comparison is not indicative (minny scored a garbage td) of the "game flow" as they like to say

Baylor, as I stated 4 weeks ago has ZERO SHOT because they scheduled 3 shyt OOC teams, the committee is sending a message.

My only problem with that is the committee is emphasizing strength of schedule without giving teams and opportunity to adjust for that. Those OOC games were probably scheduled 3-4 years ago.
