Anyone to be honest. I don't think their schedule or narrow wins against several lackluster opponents warrants consideration.  Maybe they're one of the four best, but it was their responsibility to play a schedule that allowed them to show they belong.  A single game against Notre Dame doesn't do that for me.
Anyone?  Indiana?  Vandy?

Cincy beat Indiana so how about anyone who had the testicular fortitude to schedule a portfolio of opponents that would allow a committee to review your resume and see that there is no doubt you are one of the four best teams and have rightfully earned a playoff spot.

I'd be fine with anyone who made the effort, but if you'd like to win the argument on a technicality this one is all yours my friend.

Off the top of my head, Georgia, Alabama, UM, OSU, OK St, Baylor, Ole Miss, Oklahoma.  I'm sure there's others wouldn't mind seeing how the rest of the season shakes out first.  Notre Dame sneaking by FSU in overtime and Toledo in the final seconds doesn't really help Cincy's argument.  Cincy's schedule disqualifies them from the get go for me.

It's like they were invited to a frat party and brought a tray of cupcakes when everyone else brought titties or beer and now they can't figure out why they aren't the life of the party.

I don't have a beef with Cincy specifically, it's undefeated teams with suspect schedules.  To be fair to Cincy, Clemson has had some pretty weak OCC schedules in the past and the ACC is complete garbage. 

I'm just not a fan of leaving good teams home that faced some adversity throughout the season in favor of a team that played nobody.

I doubt Vegas would laugh.
