UM's last 4 games vs SEC opp:
2021 - LOSS to UGA 34-11
2020 - LOSS to ALA 35-16
2018 - LOSS to FLA 41-15
2018 - LOSS to USCe 26-19

All true.  This Michigan team is the best one they have had.   It has nothing to do with past seasons.  
SEC is the least impressive they have been in many years.

Florida State is not a top 4 team w/o Jordan Travis. 
If you don't think that's fair, I'm sorry someone suggested to you that life is fair.
If Travis never got hurt, FSU wins and they're in.  Case closed.
But he's out, so they are a different, compromised team. 
Sorry/not sorry.
You may be right.  My suspicion is you are.

But if they find a way to win tonight - the committee would have to break every rule, and precedent they have ever set by keeping an undefeated conference championship out of the playoffs and favor of someone else.  I would be surprised, but also very disappointed if they did that.

I mean, based on Stanley bucks, sure. Based on play on the field, it's against everything sports is supposed to be. Results on the field getting trumped by Super Cool Mystery Points is why "the committee" should be shot into the sun.

You can’t keep FSU out if they win.  If you do you are just saying results don’t matter. It’s all what you think/believe.

You guys won 59-10 or something like that. I’ve always wondered what the committee would have done if Ohio St won 13-10 and Jones looked bad.
OSU kind of solved the gordian knot of the Big 12. TCU couldn't go ahead of Baylor. And Baylor had played jack no one in the non-conference, which was seen as quite bad.

Buckeyes were a very good team with a good brand. No doubt 59-0 made it easier to push through.

Life's not gonna be fair for someone. But it probably won't be undefeated FSU.

Of course, I don't think FSU is gonna win. If they do, hot under the collar time for Bama.

Fortunately, by stuff you've told us, only one of those counts.

Took my son to a Crew game this summer. He likes soccer. I don’t.  But I really enjoyed it.  Fun time for both of us.

10-0? Without a defensive score I don't see how Iowa evens this up.

I sent a text that JJ doesn't have two pick sixes in him.
