re: Teams with legit shot to win CFP every year

Ohio State has won two and played for five so they're on that list as well.

Here's my qualm with LSU. They seem more likely to have 3-5 losses than to have 1-2 and be in the conversation. 12 of the last 15 seasons they've had that many losses. Now, I agree that the talent is always there and maybe the coaching is as well now but being really good consistently has not happened. It's been boom or bust and most seasons in the last 15 years have leaned more towards the bust side.
