Claims to be a UGA fan but has a Bama obsession thats rivals even the most Bama-sessed LSU fans. Hmmm

The committee picked TCU over Alabama, TCU was the real last team in. They put TCU at 3 just to avoid the Michigan/Ohio St rematch that everyone just watched.
TCU got in because they had one less loss.
2 loss Ohio St and TCU had no shot of getting in. 2 loss Alabama almost got in.
2 loss Alabama even being considered is all you have to know about the prestige factor for the Tide.

There are four teams that the media fawn all over the start of every football season about how good they are, how they'll make the playoff and how they're back. Every single year. Sometimes they are right mostly not so much. Ohio State, Notre Dame, SoCal and Michigan because historically it was usually one of them until Bear got Bama rolling and got a bigger spotlight on Southern football9 yes there were some others like Duke in the 1930s and 40s but Bear really got the spotlight on teams in the south. But the old biases still hold true with national media.

Not a difficult question to answer....easy, it's Alabama.

It made me think, why did the committee pick Ohio state over Alabama?
Losses matter first. Margin of loss only factors in with equal records. Not that hard.

Ohio State lost fewer games the Alabama. Seems easy to me why Ohio State got in this year over bama. If Bama would have had same amount of losses than Ohio State, Bama would be in.

Depends who wins more big games or who draws in more views, both are close and elite in both areas but each school has an advantage in one of the two categories over the other. So pick your poison

I would just like to say that this dumb frick does not speak for nor represent the majority of the UGA fanbase, whether on here or anywhere else.

It’s about TV audience. They want the Big 10 people to watch the playoffs. Alabama has been in the playoffs constantly and there is still another SEC team going.
To answer the original question, though, Bama is a bigger grand than OSU nationally.

Neither have been 15-0 with 7 top 10 wins in one season so the answer is LSU.

One things for sure: Georgia is not, never has been and never will be a blue blood. They are a Clemson type program with red and black uniforms.

Alabama and it’s not even close.

So if Alabama had lost 6 games by 8 points they should be in over OSU because they lost by 22. Bama should be in because OSU played 1 quarter bad to Bama's 5 games they looked like shite.
Bama lost 2 games, doesn’t matter if it’s by 100 or 4. They list twice you don’t get in the 4 team playoff with 2 losses. EVER. It’s never happened. The only reason LSU would have with 2 losses is because they would have won the SEC and beaten number 1 and the debate would have still been huge and close.
However, Alabama is the bigger brand. Notre Dame is The Biggest Brand. It’s not even a little close. There is no argument, doesn’t matter how they look in the field. They are the biggest. They have made the playoffs every year they have had 1 loss or less, they crept last year and that only because they had the head to head loss with Cin who made the playoffs. They are the only independent that gets its own seat at the bargaining table. 10 Conf commissioners and the AD of Notre Dame. They get a vote. They get 1 of 11 votes; they other 130 teams split 10 votes.

It’s clearly Georgia! Lol

Ohio doesn't even own their biggest rivalry historically.
