Updated College Football Playoff Poll

It's easy as a fan to say that a particular personality in the media is biased against one's team based on certain things that person says. However, this analyst has come across over the years as someone who has a penchant for poking at PSU a bit.

I watched a bit of the NBC studio show last Saturday. Her reason for thinking ND should be being ahead of Penn State is because ND has "been playing very well lately". That's it. Her own personal eye test even if she doesn't call it that. At least guys like Herbstreit are up front with their bias and actually call it the "eye test". Subjective as subjective can get.

Unfortunately for Maryland, that's why I think CJF won't hold back on scoring points on Saturday. It's the last chance to make an impression on the committee.

Yeah, and considering how close to disaster we came last week, I think the team will come roaring out of the chute.

My point is that I think the gap between what PSU has accomplished compared to Notre Dame is a larger than the comparison between ND and Indiana. There really should be little debate between PSU and Notre Dame’s ranking in the CFP.

I actually think the team below PSU that has the best argument to be above them is Georgia. Yes two losses but a very tough schedule, some great wins and no bad losses.
