This TCU game is the committee's worst nightmare.... if Baylor does the same thing to Michigan State and tOSU gets blown out, they're fucked

That's a lot of "ifs". I guess I don't understand the need for a knee jerk reaction before we even know what is going to happen. For all anyone knows, OSU could beat Bama. What would the argument be then, that TCU should have been in over Bama?

And the "cries for justice" will get even louder if there is a blowout or two in the playoff semis. Especially if it is Ohio State or Florida State that gets blown out.

On the other hand, the committee will look like geniuses if OSU and FSU win their semifinal games.

That is the best part. You knew you could rely on the fact that the committee would end up looking stupid at some pt over the first couple years. As for the which team was deserving, I think I will let Urban guide you

Urban Meyer asked if brand name helped Ohio State get in playoff: "I don't know. Probably."

TCU didn't get in because the Big 12 tried to con the PO committee and got caught.

I totally disagree! Knee-jerk reactions at halftime of one game are what makes the Hoop special!

By choosing OSU at #4, the committee "guaranteed" a Oregon vs. Bama matchup...something that has been wanted by a lot of fans for years.

IF the committee had taken a TCU or Baylor ahead of OSU there would have been no guarantee.

not many "ifs".... all it really takes is one of the playoff teams to get blown out... really doesn't matter which one

ok... let's say Bama loses..... how did they get in? they had Ole Miss as a "quality loss", and look what TCU is doing to them right now.... you could make a legitimate case that TCU should have gotten in over Bama at that point
