The committee chair said that OSU was clearly better than PSU/Wisky in their eyes last Tuesday


They have as said that previous weeks rankings have no bearing on the next week. Clean slate each week.

So if you are comparing Ohio State and Penn State for the last spot. Penn state had the head to head and conference championship over OSU. What is the argument for Ohio State?

That doesn't mean they erase the rest of the season.

There are 4 "tie-breakers" they are head to head, conference titles Strength of schedule and common opponents.

OSU wins 2 of the 4, and has 1 less loss.

These are the exact words of the committee tie-breakers if teams are "at the margin" or equal in their minds eye-test wise

Championships won
? Strength of schedule
? Head-to-head competition (if it occurred)
? Comparative outcomes of common opponents (without incenting margin of victory)
