MI maybe


Ya I take MI back.
OSU has at least beaten teams with a pulse.
GA and MI no.
FSU, no.

They beat ND and Penn State. That might not be that impressive with ND getting manhandled today, but look at the schedules of the other top contenders.


What has Penn State done other than get beat by Ohio St?

Because they have amazing wins. That’s why Washington is out of the top 4. They have no good wins.

Because they have the best resume and maybe the best defense in the country.

If Georgia wins today, they'll probably jump to #1, so calm your arse down, weirdo.

They have looked average against average teams this year


You're talking about #5 Washington.

ASU is one of the worst P5 teams in the country (currently losing to Utah 24-3) and lost to Fresno State, Cal and Colorado...And the #5 team in the country beat them 15-7 two weeks ago.

Slightly below OSUs, Ohio State has played slightly better opponents.

They'll lose to Meeechigan again.

Because PSU and ND are overrated.

They want the BIG to be seen as the best conference and shows reality is not important.

It’s much like the overblown greatness of the PAC 12 this year. They have not had a great OOC win all season yet are being lauded as the best conference by many.

Their best OOC wins may be Auburn, MSU, Wisconsin and TCU.

If this is your argument, tOSU has 2 wins against PSU who beat no one and a now 3-loss ND that was destroyed by freaking Louisville.

Washington beat a top 10 Oregon and if they beat USC tonight that is likely equivalent to ND.

The point is these rankings are bullshite for everyone. This is why a a 6-plus team playoff means something. You don’t reward this stupid arse scheduling for 4 teams.

What an idiotic argument. They didn't rank them last week based on the outcome of games this week...

Nope. Missouri won’t be in the top 15 with a loss today.
