re: End of the year CFP Hypothetical per the committee tonight. Chick said LSU means Chaos

Not so fast. UGA would be in, Ohio St. (or Mich) would be in, TCU is in if they win out (not sure if anyone has actually looked at their SOS), and......LSU would get the nod over Oregon. Lots of fans around the country would be mad and the SEC bias would be talked about to no end.

However, the committee has a history of using whatever narrative they want to justify putting in teams they want. Sometimes it's the "best" four, other times it's the "most deserving" four. It's even been a time when it came down to "who was playing the best football right now).

Although LSU would have 2 losses, the committee would justify their decision by stating that they "just thought" LSU was better because LSU beat UGA...who beat Oregon by 46. You beat Bama and UGA in the same year AND win the SEC, LSU would definitely get in. The committee would just brace/expect the blowback and hope LSU does well in the playoffs to further confirm their decision.

This really isn't all that different from the BCS, just that there's 4 teams instead of 2.
