Win or lose OSU is done because MSU beats PSU Unless the following happens.

Iowa v Mich St. would be a very unusual CC game given Hawkeye resume and MSU QB issues. For the sake of argument let's say Iowa wins.

Oklahoma could now lose without starting QB. A game they should comfortably win otherwise against Ok St.. If they do Big 12 probably watches again.

Could come down to ND Stanford result and PAC 12 CC Game for last spot if Oklahoma loses and Iowa wins B1G. Then Baylor wins and hopes for a Stanford win over ND then PAC CG loss and hope they don't have OSU leap them with a win over Michigan. But would the committee really select 2 teams from B1G only to shut out Big 12 again?

Got all that?

Talk about a win-win. BCU loses and drops ND 2 spots in the process.

What happens if UNC runs the table and beats Clemson. That means they would have 1 loss and beat the #1 team in the committees eyes. Not to mention their only loss came in week 1 at USCe.

That would cause a clusterF

If that did happen... it could mean no ACC team in playoff, instead it's Bama, Oklahoma, B1G champ (Iowa or MSU), and ND. This means ND gets in without having to have played in ACC CG, and having lost to Clemson already! Yes please, and pass the popcorn.

8 team playoff begins next year. Mark it down now.
Someone is getting left out thus causing a major disruption.
Love it. Chaos in College Football.

This is the new boss, same as the old boss. The committee still favors reputation over results. The correct rankings for this week should be:

1. Clemson - undefeated in major conference play
2. Michigan St - the best 1 loss resume
3. Oklahoma - the second best 1 loss resume by a conference champion
4. Iowa - undefeated in major conference play but didn't play the other top 3 teams in its conference. No OOC wins of note.
5. Alabama - 1 loss conference leader
6. Ohio State - 1 loss non-conference champion
7. Stanford - best 2 loss resume
8. Notre Dame - next best 2 loss
9. Michigan - next 2 loss
10. Baylor - next 2 loss
11. UNC - 1 loss but played no other top 25 teams.

The SEC played no one OOC in general and Bama's best wins are against conference also-rans. The SEC just isn't as good as the B1G, P12 or B12 in terms of top teams. No one cares if the 8th best team in the SEC is better than the 8th team in other conferences. Bama may be the best team, but if it's 5 for 4 spots right now, they should be out, or 4th at best after the B1G CCG.

Rose: Iowa v Stanford
Sugar: Ok St v. Ole Miss
Peach: Houston v. Florida St.
Fiesta: ND v Ohio St.

It's good to be B1G.

Big: 3
Sec: 2
B12: 2
ACC: 2
P12: 1
AAC: 1
Ind: 1
 
Can anyone explain to me why USC is #25 with 5 losses? They have a 2-3 record against ranked teams this year. Just looks bad on the ranking committee to have a 5 loss team in the top 25. Looked bad when they we #20 last week and had 4 losses.

With football "back", hopefully the B1G expansion eyes will look at UConn as a means to secure more year-round TV content.

Not for a single second. I must've watched all of USC's worst games this season because every time I saw them play, I felt that we could have played with them. Baylor at 17 is also perplexing. They are down to their 4th string QB, lost to a terrible Texas team at home, and can't stop anyone on defense. No question Houston is better than Baylor right here, right now.

Completely agree. Only thing I could think of is IF Clemson lost, the #20 ranking last week would help the PAC12 and Stanford getting into the top 4. Clemson won so not sure why they are in the top 25 this week. They didn't look impressive when I watched them.
