And this is why we don't use the BCS anymore.
The whole point of the playoff committee was SUPPOSED to be so we could instill some common sense into the computer rankings. At least that's what most of us thought originally.
No P5 team is ranked ahead of a P5 team with less losses, except Bama ahead of FSU.
If two teams have the same record, the team that won H2H is ranked higher, except Bama over Texas.

That’s not true. In fact LSU is an example that disproves your statement.

No this is why it "SHOULD BE USED" humans (especially those who do not understand football) get caught up in ONE DATA SET POINT lie Head 2 Head, computers don't. Bama had the edge over Texas on SOS, most top 25 wins (4-3), most top 15 wins (3-1), better loss (#5 in old BCS vs. OU what ever they were) a stronger overall conference etc. etc.
NOTICE: the Coaches Poll who "Know Football" had Texas and Bama tied, and that after all the Propaganda of Head 2 Head trumps everything else.
With the added emphasis on players missing, Texas should have gotten 4th, IMHO, over FSU, but they should not be ahead of Bama only because of Head 2 Head.
