Having the "wrong loss" is what prevented Va Tech from getting in to the BCS Natty in '07 but because LSU beat them head to head, they got the nod. Same case here-when resumes are comparable, you have to consider the head to head matchup which PSU won. Sorry that it's inconvenient for OSU, but precedent has been set!

Agreed. Resumes are NOT comparable to the committee

Virginia Tech and LSU had IDENTICAL records of 11-2.

That's not the case here with OSU and PSU.



Head to head is used as a tie-breaker... it's not relevant when one team has a better record.
