If we had hung in to beat O$U would we be #5 or #6?

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

It’s tough to think through it but had we won we still had a reasonable path to the CFP. Michigan beats OSU and TCU loses in Big 12 champ game.

We really had a solid path even without a Big Ten Championship

Yes ... I think worst PSU would be 7-8 if they beat OSU.

Nope. This is how the committee would go about selecting their 4 teams:

1 - "We're putting the SEC champ in".
2 - "We're putting the B1G champ in".
3 - "We are putting any other SEC one loss team in - more than one if need be".
4 - "If no more one loss SEC teams, we'll put any other one loss team in the country other than Penn State - quick, somebody go find one".

You know! You nailed it , would probably end up playing a PAC team in the Rose like "16"

Freakin' Herbie would push some Group of 5 body of work nonsense.

had we beat OSU we would have a good chance at BIG title. Tie breaker (had osu beat um) would be crossover opponents record and we fair well here

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

We beat O$U and we would be #4 right now in CFP. Without question.

OSU would be 5 and lsu 6

Would have been nice.
