My issue is that we know certain teams have won with the schedule they were dealt
Schedule they were dealt? You realize you get to schedule your own OOC games, right? Who have TCU and Baylor chosen to schedule? THAT is the committee's issue with those two teams.

Call it a fluke if you want? Whether I want to call it that or not is irrelevant. I HAVE to call it that b/c that's precisely what it was. The committee seemingly took that into account too.

MSU completely outplayed Michigan in that game. Outgained them 2-1, and Michigan was the team who got a phantom TD when they were stopped on 4th and goal at the 1 but the refs decided to run towards the scrum before blowing the whistle
The issue is that if the playoff started today, without forecasting, college football would go into anarchy with Bama included. They LOST A GAME AT HOME TO AN AVEARGE FOOTBALL TEAM. They didn't lose to a #1 LSU 9-6 in overtime. They lost to an already 2 loss team who lost to a team from the American conference convincingly.
I didn't trumpet OSU at all, because I'm not even sure they should be in the top 4 at this point. However, MSU has a better win than anything Bama has...and MSU doesn't have a loss

Michigan win was not a "fluke," it just ended in one. Go look at the stats again, Michigan State's defense was stout and Cook had a very solid game. They actually outplayed a very good Michigan team, on the road, in a big rivalry game. It's a bigger accomplishment than what Bama has done.
Eta: didn't see the OSU fan's post
