If OM beats Arkansas and we beat a top 10 OM in oxford then we are in IMO. The committee isnt there to put teams in whose name is more attractive they are there to put in the 4 most deserving.

So far they've done that. If state wins out they'll have a hard time dropping us considering our last win would be against a top 10 team on the road

What does that even mean?

OSU could say that if they win the B1G, then they should be in no matter what State does because they would be more deserving as conference champs.

Wrong. They have made it known that conference champions will carry the greatest influence. Since there are no conference champions of Power 5 conferences yet, that card cannot be played in the weekly rankings to date. There are only two ways MSU gets in the playoff. The first is if you beat Ole Miss and Bama loses to Auburn and you beat UGA or Mizz in the SECCG. Obvious. The other is if UGA wins the SECCG against Bama but lost to GT the week before. MSU would go before a 3 loss UGA SEC champ as well as a Bama who lost to UGA in Atlanta.
