No offense, and not trying to argue - I'm just legitimately curious about how you distinguish Two loss aub as "deserving" vs. two loss O$U as "may make it"?Teams that deserve the playoff if they win out:
Oklahoma
Wisconsin
Clemson
Miami
Georgia
Auburn
Teams that may make it but have warts:
Alabama
Ohio State
Ohio State made in last year despite not winning their division and the team that did win their division not getting in either. They proceeded to get crushed 31-0.
That may mean something come next week.
And to be clear, just like everyone else, I hope like heck we get in, regardless of how or why. But I'm curious why you give the nod to aub but not O$U, when the Buckeyes have a pretty strong record of getting in 2/3 of the times so far, despite "questionable" provenance".
Because they got pantsed last time? IF anything, I see that as an argument to keep US out... unfortunately..... That and the prospect of the Committee potentially looking at UGa or aub already in the bracket.
