Why would OS jump from 5 to 2; why would Oregon fall from 2 to 3; and where is Baylor / TCU - just guessing.
This....although I'm not sure we're all talking about the same thing since there are multiple links in the OP. The one I clicked was some off the wall scenario.

Well....I'm going to disagree with him.
I think it will be..
(1) Bama
(2) Oregon
(3) TCU or Baylor
(4) Ohio State
I don't think the committee will keep FSU at four even with them being undefeated.
They haven't looked like a top four team all season and they surely didn't last night.

I don't see any situation where they lock an undefeated defending national champion with a Heisman QB out of the bracket regardless of how average they have looked. I would laugh my beep off if it happens though! I do not like that team or their QB.

I think Jerry Palm has it about right. I started thinking this way as soon as I started watching OSU blow up Win. It will be fun to watch what they do for sure.

i would not be able to stop laughing for years if that happened. They would end up playing Baylor or TCU for nothing. and probably lose.

While I don't think that it will happen, I would immediately be won over as a fan of this format if it does. FSU is not one of the best 4 teams in the country. They are the team that doesn't belong. They are like ND in 2012 - rewarded for barely beating a long stream of weak teams. Rewarded for not losing, which is different than being rewarded for winning. They have not won this season - they have just managed not to lose.

I think people are hung up on the old system and how it was taboo to jump teams who won their games. New system. New rules. Previous polls really have nothing to do with what comes out today.

All we've heard all season is head to head and conference champions above everything else. Based on that no way TCU is in. It comes down to Ohio St. and Baylor. Does anybody think Baylor beats the Buckeyes right now? As much as I despise Winston and FSU, they're an undefeated defending champion so they are in.

I think Baylor should be left out no matter what. Their OOC schedule is embarrassing and it is not going to improve anytime soon. Their future schedules are a joke as well. i say leave them out and I won't feel bad for them.

Leaving FSU out completely would be an early Christmas present for me.

The media is all expecting them to be in...no matter what. If the committee leaves them out...that would be the best troll job of the season by the committee. Haha
