I'm always the one telling people to knock off the conspiracy theories, but this just has the look of wanting to justify Ohio State at #1 after there was so much backlash from the media last week.

Michigan dropped 1 as well...ive said it 100x they dont want LSU at 1 and will do whatever they have to to keep sec teams out of the top 10...thats why auburn didnt get to 10, bama dropped so much and thats why OSU quality wins that lose (cincy and michigan) only dropped 1...not to mention wisconsin rose to much...oh and did anyone notice minnisoto who didnt play OSU dropped like a rock more so than anyone else bc it doesnt hurt OSU schedule

Keep serving up the rat poison. Last poll is only one that matters.

Oh and Baylor has an impressive win against Texas. So Texas is impressive now.

This entire committee was put together to ensure that traditionally strong programs with household names get into the NY6. Also, the playoff are purely biased towards regional seeding/pairing. The playoff committee is a sham put together to only protect the monetary benefits of the NCAA & the Bowl committees. This shite is a joke.

When giving an argument for Baylor, it was they played a close game against Ok and an impressive win against Texas. LOL

Yet, it’s a black sheep on our schedule

Michigan dropped ONE spot for losing

Surprised they didn’t rise. They did lose to the most complete team in the history of CFB after all

It appears to go deeper than just wanting Ohio St at #1. Look at the entire rankings as a whole. It's obvious the committee wants big name schools in the prestigious bowls for attendance & tv ratings. There's no way anyone legitimate football analyst could have watched Michigan this season & justify them being in the top 20 right now. Its utter horseshite. The current rankings have no justification whatsoever & only benefit the bottom line of the bowl committees.

Probably win the whole thing but rank tOSU above us because they thought they looked like a complete team in their loss. Herbstreit- “LSU obviously only best then because they scored more”.

Great point. There is just no consistent logic in not only the rankings, but in the way Mullens is explaining the reasoning behind where teams are ranked.

It's all bullshite. I guarantee the bowl committees ($$$$) pushed for College Football Playoff Committee to protect their bottom line as a concession for a 4 team playoff. There's too much money involved for the bowl committees to not have protected themselves in a playoff system that used the old BCS computer formulas. The chances of unfavorable matchups between schools who don't travel well fan wise or matchups that would not draw well on television was just too great.

Don’t forget Michigan gets blown out at home and drops one spot. Committee is borderline criminal !!

It’s ok. When we line up against OSU and beat their brains in just like we did in 07 there will be no denying us the number one spot then. Fuuuuuck Dem!

The media (news and sports) continues to be a shite show. No credibility. Not a damned ounce of credibility.

Exactly. Just like last years nfl bullshite with cheating the saints in order to get a west coast team in. A flicking joke.
