On the selection show the other day, Rece Davis said Ohio State is 4-1 in the debates for the last couple of spots in the playoffs. Only one time have they not snuck in, so they have gotten the benefit of the doubt more than other program. Hopefully Georgia just destroys them so in the future they don’t always get the benefit of the doubt.

Debatable years
2014
2016
2019 they were undefeated and #1 going into the last poll so that wasn't a debate
2020 they were undefeated again that would only be a debate because of the # of games played which was outside of their control
2022 there wasn't a debate because there are only 4 P5 teams with 0 or 1 loss
Edit: this is OSU's 5th time in the playoffs

The Big 10 and Notre Dame have historically always gotten the benefit of the doubt regarding sports team.
Check out how many BIG 10 teams get into NCAA Tournament. 80% usually get bounced out first round.. but that doesn't change a thing.

Well, we lost by 31 and 28 and that didn't do it.
But sure, you can hope you'll have an easier path.
