This is why I'm a proponent of 50% resume/50% eye test. The committee just needs to say that's their criterion, and not lie about "4 best teams". Their top 4, I have no problem with, but resume does matter and should matter. It's not just eye test, or ND wouldn't be in the top 4.
And if OU lost to Texas, Georgia would be in over OSU. That means resume doesn't matter to the committee if they'd include a 2-loss non-champ over a 1-loss B10 champ. I guess that's okay, if they were honest about it.
