It is a very safe bet to bet on Alabama to win it all, if you do it before every season because they are almost guaranteed to be in the playoffs.
She didn't even tell my dad or me until after the Texas game
Now she just does it for tradition.
Her and I will have to have a serious talk after Saban leaves

Alabama had 1 loss.
Auburn had 3.

This is stupid. Ohio State was up 13-10 with 4 minutes left in the third quarter and had the ball.

Let's face it, Alabama was rewarded for past performance rather than what they accomplished this season. Wisconsin's resume was objectively better than Alabama's or Ohio State's.

Not as a 3 loss team, no.
Same applies to a team that only wins one game all year not getting in ahead of the team they beat that may have only one loss all year.

Bama beat USC by 50 points last year?
Bama would beat USC by 30 at least this year

Crazy thing is if tOSU had played somebody like Akron instead of Oklahoma they would be in.
The way the committee is picking teams is going to kill cross power 5 conference play (excluding kick off games because money). There is no advantage to risking your record like that clearly

Wisconsin had a horrible schedule and that hurt them too.

Doubt it. Oklahoma won the Big XII and got in. If Baylor or TCU won, with Oklahoma's record they would have been in.
Wisconsin lost in the B1G title game. Has they won they would have been in.
Why should they have played a tougher schedule?

If we’re strictly talking the Oklahoma game, then this is flat out false. Georgia lost by 23 to Auburn.

Only had 1 loss
And was in before they had to play the extra game due to winning their division, while Bama didn't have to play because they won nothing
People will say Wisky didn't play anyone, but neither did Bama....

At the time of the loss my point would have stood. But now I'm just stupid

How?
If they had beat Ohio State at the end they would be in, Bama would be out, and barely a soul would have complained.

Well it hurt them because after they lost to the only good team they played, they dropped out of the top 4.
