I'd like to get you guys in the semis. With a month to prepare I trust Meyer.
That means either Bama would have to lose to UF and drop to 4 or tOSU would have to drop to 4 somehow, without playing. To mean it is clear that Bama is 1 and tOSU is 2. I mean one loss in the best conference should be the highest rated one loss team. If this game even happens, it will be in the finals. I do understand why you would want it in the semis and if I were a Buckeye, I would too.

I could see the committee dropping us behind Washington and Clemson. They could justify it with them being 12-1 conference championship game champs.
Yeah, I like our odds better with the extra preparation time.
ETA: I agree it's clear we're 1 and 2 given the resumes.

OSU shouldn't even get into the playoff. The most ardent and avid Buckeye fans would agree with this. They aren't playing nearly as well as they did at the beginning of the season, the play calling has been horrible in certain situations, and a run defense that can be gashed at times. The object of the committee is to pick the four best teams, most complete, from start to finish, offense and defense, and Ohio State has zero passing game at this point. If you can't pass on Alabama with efficiency, you ain't beating Alabama. However I don't think Alabama is "at least two TDs better" than OSU. I think it would be something around 24-14 or 28-17.
