Im struggling to figure out Oklahoma is ranked above Michigan St


...what criteria are they looking at?

They have better wins (two top ten wins), a better loss, and higher SOS


it just doesnt make sense

Michigan State is basically seen as having 2 losses with the Michigan miracle.

While a win is a win, I think they also look at that game against Michigan and put little to no weight on it because of how they won. That being said, they went on the road and beat a top 4 team with a back up QB (I believe). I'd be ok with them being ranked ahead of Iowa.

I'm skeptical of the Iowa ranking. Undefeated yes, but look at that schedule
LSU looked credible as a top 4 team until they started playing decent opponents. Iowa just hasn't had to play anyone decent.

Michigan St has a loss (Nebraska) and a half loss (Michigan). I am guessing the committee is not looking at the Michigan victory as a full victory.

Iowa being in top 4 is terrible. Who is their best two wins? They should have been 6th at best, knowing that if they won the Big Ten, they would sneak in.
