In the old 4 team format - Penn State would have been in

The committee had us #4 even though we seed #6 due to the CCG winners. Under the old model we would have been in along with Oregon, Texas and UGA. So we didn't really have to wait for the 12 team format.

I don’t think the final poll would look the same if it were just 4 teams.

Agreed. The 4 would have been UGA, TX, Oregon, and ND.
