Frankly I'll be shocked if the top 4 teams coming into today aren't the ones in the playoff

It'll be something if TCU is left out.

Responses:

Someone is getting left out, will be furious and it's completely fair. Ohio state deserves it and can be furious. TCU deserves it too. Baylor too. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 6, 20:37 9
- I said this below they put Ohio St in and leave TCU and Baylor out - eag Dec 6, 20:40 5
  - nah, TCU will get in -- nm - ty97 Dec 6, 20:41 4
    - agreed. the committee would have to justify moving TCU down two slots -- nm - prayformojo Dec 6, 20:44 3
      - If they put in OSU and leave out TCU/Baylor they don't have to talk about the head to head. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 6, 20:54 2
        
        OSU AND FSU are the only teams in the mix that went undefeated in there conference -- nm - eag Dec 6, 21:14 1
        
        If all conferences were equal that might mean something. -- nm - Bacon Dec 6, 21:19
- ayup. and a fair number of people will be shocked that the playoff system didn't deliver the final four in a tidy package -- nm - prayformojo Dec 6, 20:39 2
  - But they'll be able to say that in the old system, it would only be Bama and Oregon and there wouldn't be any of this debate. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 6, 20:43 1
    - although, in this case, it would be really hard to argue against this at this points - prayformojo Dec 6, 20:45
Well, this'll also fan the flames for expanded playoff to 8 if not more. -- nm - budice Dec 6, 20:36 3
- I feel like they should have the latitude to include between 4-8 teams in whatever formation they feel is best. If there are only 6, then there are 6. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 6, 20:38 2
  - It needs to be four or eight for the playoffs to work. If you halve six you end up with an uneven amount of teams. -- nm - Krusty Dec 6, 21:35
  - I'm not a fan of the Oscar system. Set a number and let the chips falls as they may. -- nm - ty97 Dec 6, 20:39
