I like how the committee gave IU a lot of cred for the last second win at hapless Penn State and voted them #2. 

Meanwhile there is an SEC team out there who pretty  much did the same thing, on the road at Top Ten Notre Dame, and is undefeated, yet they rank them #3.  And this same team bodied a ranked team (top 20 in the CFP and AP/CP) on the road. 
Eh. The Committee had IU #2 before last weekend. Probably on the basis of beating Oregon by 10 on the road and hammering Illinois. 

Keeping them #2 after a scare is just inertia IMHO. While A&M beat #22 (at the time) Mizzou on the road by two scores, the committee just didn't value that win enough to flip them.

The Ags have been in the SEC for over a decade, not sure that would be weird.

What would be weird is the Ags winning the CFB playoffs. :57:
