??? - THE 4 PLAYOFF TEAMS (updated) and Bowl Pairings - ???

[Chechem]

This has turned into a mess for The Committee.  All of the 1-loss teams won, and FSU barely won.  Ohio State crushed Wisconsin.

So who are the 4, and in what order??  I think The Committee does what they planned to do all along, assuming they weren't forced into a change: 4 conference champs:

1. Alabama Crimson Tide
2. Oregon
3. Ohio State
4. Florida State

You??

Most of the sportswriters (in the NE and midwest) think OSU should be among the 4!

I agree with you, no Big 12 and Bama gets the Big 10 in New Orleans.

[N.AL-Tider]

1.  Bama
2. Oregon
3. TCU
4. FSU

Do you think the Big 12 and Notre Dame will get the message sent by the committee, conference champs will play for the title.

Big time!

I'm thinking that TCU and Baylor get left out, especially after a big Ohio State win.  Besides not having a championship game, Oklahoma's loss hurts them both.  That was among their best wins.  With Oklahoma State beating OU, the conference strength falls apart!

You are dead on with your analysis of the Big 12 being left out. I have never understood why they don't have a championship game.

Ed Zachary! TCU and Baylor are out, even though they can't totally discount OSU's loss to Va Tech. But I think the committee will overlook that to send the message; "Conference champs only!".

I see it as:

1. Bama
2. Oregon
3. Ohio State
4. FSU

Bama
Oregon
OSU
FSU

Money and tradition rule the day. PAC 12-Big10 matchup in the Rose Bowl, Bama and FSU playing close to home in the Sugar Bowl.

With no defenses, upsets are the norm for the Big 12.
Guess they fear a chance of their "best team" losing during the final week.

Craziest seeding is FSU.  They prolly shouldn't even be in the final 6, but no way the committee will leave them out.  But if they're in, who's out??

[ALTideUp]

This we know for sure. By 1pm EST two teams, their school officials, their conference officials, their governors and US Sentators, their local media, and their fan bases, will be going full-out, apoplectic, bat-schize crazy, and this will be the second most entertaining thing that happens this weekend. I do not need to tell you what the most entertaining this was. Roll Tide.

If they weren't Florida St and the defending champs I don't think they'd get in. No way they get left out though, even if no one believes they're actually one of the four best teams.
