Putting both B1G teams in so they don't have to choose between them would be awful.
Honestly, if Penn State gets in over Washington, I may just give up on college football until the eight team playoff.
It is so easy to come up with a scenario where a Top 4 team does not win a conference title and still deserves a bid.
OSU and Michigan are unbeaten instead of each sitting on one loss. They are ranked 2-3 in the country or even 1-2. It's the last game of the year. And it is a close game. Michigan loses. They don't get to play for the conference title. OSU then goes and beats some 2 loss team from the other division. Michigan is the only 1 loss team in the nation. They don't deserve a bid because they didn't win their conference title?
Now if your argument is PSU deserves to go because they beat OSU and you simply believe they are the better team, that's reasonable. But if the argument is you have to win your conference, that strikes me as bogus.
Just hard to see tOSU getting bounced and leaving out Washington who beat #8 by 31 is the easier sell.
The only reason the resumes of Penn St and OSU should be compared is if they never played head to head.
Well this is dumb.
Remind me why people don't think the results of the college football game played between Penn State and a Ohio State does not decide this question.
