It's also the same reason Ohio State came in at #1 ahead of LSU who clearly has the better resume.
Outside of computers all putting Ohio State ahead of LSU, I saw a reasonable post earlier today
quote:
Numbers only between Ohio State and LSU
Ohio State - Opp win% .563 - beat #13 and #20 by combined 80-7
LSU - Opp win% .545 - Beat #10 and #11 by combined 65-48
ETA: I wouldn’t have been upset one bit if LSU was ranked first in this poll.

Based on your downvotes there are three Oklahoma fans lurking. Lol

I don’t mind it, but it needs a computer element.

Come on dude. Baylor has some very close wins. Oklahoma's only "close" win was Texas, and that game wasn't close on the field.
Wouldn't you say Oklahoma's best effort would beat Baylor's best effort? I would.
I can't stand the "this team deserves.." narrative. Be honest and ask yourself who would win if team A played team B.
I agree with OSU being #1 for this very reason. I also agree with Penn St being higher than Clemson for this reason. LSU and Bama are a push to me. I can't say who would win between LSU and Bama. That's when you go by resume.

Meh ...if OU played Baylor on a neutral field they’d be favored by at least 17 points in Vegas. The committee got it right. Baylor almost lost to Texas Tech.

Two teams from the same Conference....
*Oklahoma is 7-1
*Baylor is 8-0
*Oklahoma has defeated zero teams in the Top 25
*Baylor has defeated TWO teams in the Top 25
*Oklahoma LOST at #16 Kansas State by 7 points
*Baylor WON at #16 Kansas State by 19 points
What basis would one have to rank Oklahoma ahead of Baylor at this point in the season? But of course, the Committee did just that, ranking 7-1 Oklahoma at #9 and undefeated Baylor at #12.

After yr1 the marching orders for the Committee was changed to stress that the Committee's job is to generate the best TV Matchups
A Playoff Committee's job is to find the most deserving Teams, but there was a new variable added in yr 2 or 3 about creating the best TV Matchups so now they can hose teams like Baylor if they need to create a more attractive TV Matchup

This is exactly why you have a committee. I'm surprised at you. Most UGA fans I know are astute enough to look past the mere W-L record.
Rice had the ball with 6:00 left against Baylor, only down a touchdown. fricking winless Rice who's 0-9. Top ten teams don't almost get beat by 0-9 Rice.
They only beat 5-3 Iowa State by 2 at home, with ISU having the ball at their 44 at the end.
They had to go to overtime to beat another shitty team, Texas Tech (3-5), by 3 points. That game was also at home.
They only beat another shitty team, West Virginia (3-5) by 3 points, again at home.
But Oklahoma is only ranked ahead of them because of the "brand."
There are 6 teams with losses ranked ahead of Baylor, simply because their 8-0 record is bullshite. They almost got beat by three teams that are pure dogshit. That's why you have a fricking committee...to see that kind of bullshite.
