re: Horrible job by the committee

Selection committee chair Kirby Hocutt said No. 4 Oklahoma's loss to four-loss Iowa State kept it from going higher, but he was pressed about why Clemson, then, was No. 2 after losing to six-loss Syracuse. Hocutt said Clemson's six wins vs. teams with winning records are more than any other team in the top 25. The committee continues to factor in the injury to Clemson QB Kelly Bryant in its loss. "When we looked at Oklahoma's loss to Iowa State, there was no such injury that the selection committee had talked about or was aware of," he said. "We continue to take into account with Clemson's loss the injury to their quarterback and also the fact he came into that game not 100 percent."
