Thoughts... 

Ryan Day is one of the elite play-callers and QB coaches in the college game. By far.

Brian Hartline is one of the elite WRs coaches in the college game. By far. 

Recruiting 5* OLs helps. NPF and Wyatt Davis sure as hell look like 5 STARZ. 

Larry Johnson Sr is one of the elite DL coaches in the college game. By far. 

Stealing Greg Mattison was a stroke of genius by Day. Damages rival severely while also giving OSU an elite coach.

Michigan isn’t beating Ohio State any time soon. Bout to be another two decades of 2-18.

7-3 and top 20 finish.   Tough gig.

Ole Miss down RB, TE, and 2 WR today accounting for 60% of their offensive yards and 55% of their offensive TDs.

Not sure why (covid, opt out, injury, etc) but that doesn't bode well for them.

No one is surprised that Bama beat ND handily, some might be surprised a bit that it wasn't more decisive, but ND has a good team, just not IMHO a playoff caliber team.  At least Oklahoma won their CG.  In my view, a team that loses a CG should be out barring unusual circumstances (nobody else really available).

Yeah, a  team that loses a close one to another great team and is 12-1 might "deserve" it if nobody else appears comparable, but to me the CG is almost a playoff game, one and done.
What do you think about a 1-loss team that loses its CCG for a 2nd loss compared to a 1-loss team that doesn't make the CCG?
Maybe we didn't have 4 playoff-quality teams this year.  Maybe just 2--Bama and tOSU.
If Bama beat tOSU badly, what will that say about Clemson?
I'll be rooting for tOSU, BTW.  Bama/Saban-fatigue.
I suspect that the majority of CFB fans will also be rooting for the Buckeyes, although there will be some/many who want to blame tOSU for the Big Ten's curtailed season and the mid-short-season rules change to get tOSU into the CCG.
I don't care how a conference selects its champion.  Round-robin scheduling or not.  CCG or not.  But the short season was a bad decision and is a bad look, and some fans will see it as a reason to downgrade a tOSU NC.

NC State early returns looking on par for ACC this far.

This is why this was the year to just out in all P5 champs.  There was even less reason than normal to know just how "good" any conference was.

I view the CG as a first playoff round, with few exceptions.  Win your conference.

You could have let us know that Trey Sermon was a combo of Walter Payton and Eric Dickerson

If we have to expand the CFP, make it to 6 teams.  The P5 conference champs plus the highest-ranked G5 team that has beaten a P5 team.
