Find it hard to believe Ohio State has a better chance than Oklahoma?

Unless they are saying Oklahoma has a better chance at losing their title game than Ohio State? If that's the case, this makes sense.

I think if Oklahoma and Ohio State both win ... you have to take Oklahoma.

They will have avenged their loss ... beat a good Texas team in a title game while Ohio State still has a blowout loss to a 6-6 Purdue team and beat a 8-4 Northwestern team in the title game.

All hell will break loose if Georgia upsets Bama (which is possible)

If that happens ... you're looking at this:

1. Clemson
2. Notre Dame
3. Georgia
4. Alabama

And your B1G, Big XII and Pac 12 champs are all left out. That won't sit well.

If you want to see a change to the CFP, root for this. Might be the quickest way you'll see reform in terms of expanding from four teams..
I agree on OSU/Oklahoma. I just don't see a team that lost to a 6-6 team qualifying for the playoffs here.

I also have a problem with a team that doesn't play in a conference and a conference championship getting in. If a conference championship is one last hurdle for a team to get into the playoffs (or not), why not have a level playing field with all teams to go through that hurdle?

For how many years has the college football national championship system been broken?

Oklahoma's defense has been making OSU's look like a good unit. Just fired their DC.
