I think our resume was elite against an extremely difficult schedule and we are currently one of the best 4 teams in America. Any argument against us that excluded that first part is disingenuous. We didn't get in because we look good in uniforms and have good recruiting rankings. We got in because of what these guys did on the field against other really good teams throughout the year.

On the flip side, I also think we got the benefit of the doubt and understand why FSU fans are pissed. It would not have been a travesty to go with them and leave us out.

So, I think we're worthy in multiple ways and I also think we got a little lucky.

As a comparison, last years Alabama team was not worthy. They hadn't proven anything. They had great players and they lost to a couple of very good teams on the road in close games, so you could argue they were one of the "best" if you wanted to try and go that route I guess, but they hadn't actually won anything. Our resume was extremely blah. We lost our 2 toughest games.

This year's team is not that.
