2014-2015 National Champs

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I guess we should have played D3 schools OOC like Baylor did...

Or not lost to a shitty Virginia Tech team at home, either way.

Ohio State fans complaining about someone else's OOC schedule is particularly sad this season.

Baylors best OOC win is a 3 win Buffalo.

But okay.
 
AP Poll

1) FSU
2) Bama
3) Oregon
4) Miss St
5) TCU
6) Baylor
7) OSU
8) Ole Miss
9) Georgia
10) Mich State
11) UCLA
12) Kansas St
13) ASU
14) Wisconsin
 
We should be 5th, honestly.

Hopeful we end up 6th, but my money is on 7th.
 
Ohio State has 6 wins over bowl-eligible teams, most of any team. FSU and Bama tied for second with 5 each.
 
Just a quick comparison of TCU and OSU:

Best win:
TCU's would be Kansas State at home.
OSU's would be Michigan State on the road.

Edge: OSU

Losses:
TCU lost to Baylor
OSU lost to VT

Edge: TCU

Common Opponents: Minnesota
TCU: Won by a wide margin at home
OSU: Won a closer game on the road.

Edge: Draw.

Other quality wins: Against teams currently in the top 25
TCU: Oklahoma
OSU: None

Edge: TCU

Remaining big games:
TCU: Texas
OSU: Wisconsin

Edge OSU

Overall:

If both teams win out, it will be close. The lack of a championship game might hurt TCU, or rather, might give OSU a big enough boost to overtake them.
 
OSU and Baylor:

Best win:
OSU: MSU on the road
Bay: TCU at home

Edge: Baylor

Losses:
Baylor: West Virginia
OSU: VT

Edge: Baylor

Other quality wins: Teams currently in the top 25:
Baylor: Oklahoma
OSU: None

Edge Baylor

Remaining big games:
Baylor: Kansas State
OSU: Wisconsin

Edge: Baylor based on rank right now.

Overall: Baylor scares me a hell of a lot more than TCU. Really need them to lose.
 
I recall hearing that each week was a clean slate.

What does that even mean? It's certainly not the belief of the playoff committee.
 
Baylor's FBS opponents' W-L: 36-35
Ohio State's: 53-36
