OSU hasn't fared very well against Clemson over the years. (putting it mildly)
It's that SEC speed.....wait...

OSU's defense is as good as its been since 2002. Probably better.

Seems to me that OSU has done very well in the desert over the years. So there's that.

I just saw the AP poll and guffawed out loud.  I realize it doesn't matter, but what sane group of people would have UGA at #5 today?  And Wisconsin at #11?

Do they even pretend to bother thinking about any of this?

Yeah, I know OAM places a very high regard on polls and pollsters and thinks they are inerrant in their ability to line up teams by number of losses.

Maybe they should just have 1-4 and then a blank space and restart around 12th.

I get not penalizing CCG losers too harshly, but the committee acted like they didn't even happen.

Yeah, Wisconsin played creditably, as did Baylor, and Utah.  Georgia did not.  I don't get it either.
