If Ohio State is #1 seed, who would give them a tougher match?

Utah or Oklahoma? That’s who LSU should want in.

Every team that has beat OU in the 1st round, loses the championship game.

Clemson, Georgia, and BAMA all lost.

Very interesting perspective!

Oklahoma it is.

I’m pretty confident OU would give OSU headaches and require a lot of studying. At the very least, Lincoln Riley will give a blueprint of ways to attack their defense.

I’d like to see OU get in over Utah. They have a story, and fun players to watch that are known on the national stage. I also want to see what OU does in a playoff situation with an experienced leader at QB they have.

The Big 12, while not the greatest, is still better than the PAC, would think Oklahoma would probably give them a much tougher time, Utah would just be proud to be there.

If the talking heads are to be believed, both Utah and Baylor are more physical teams than OU, You want the more physical team to face off against OSU and soften them up.

Who doesn't want Utah in? Not only are they a better team, but they're a fresh face. Oregon is a really good team who had an unfortunate night in Arizona State. If Utah beats them they deserve it.

Whoever is #2 and #3 seed shouldn’t want Utah in because that’s an easy semi final for #1 seed.

If you really want Ohio State to have the toughest semi if they're #1, you should root for Oklahoma to win and the committee to drop Clemson to #4 since Oklahoma will have 3 ranked wins and Clemson will have zero.

It would then be:
#1 OSU #4 Clemson in the Fiesta (to prevent Clemson home advantage in the Peach)
#2 LSU #3 Oklahoma in the Peach

although that means that LSU has to overcome the thing you said about OU's opponent's loses the final, which I don't think is really cast in stone, just like #1 or #3 never win isn't a rule either, although none has done it yet in 5 tries.

I promise you OSU doesn't want to play Clemson in the semi-finals.

Exactly, playing Clemson should be tougher than playing Oklahoma, and all it takes is for the committee to seed Clemson at #4 according to their ranked wins resume, not the eye test.
