The committee had a big job, no doubt, but both TCU and Baylor are not even close to having proved worthy of being in the 4 spot. Here is one big reason why.
Of all of the Top 10 ranked teams, Baylor and TCU have played and beat the fewest bowl eligible opponents. Baylor with 5 and TCU with 6.
Ohio State has beaten 10, that is freaking double Baylor, and almost double TCU.
Art Briles needs to quit whining like he was cheated and accept that fact that his team just has not proven it is worthy.
Ohio State however can be proud , as it didn't get in because of $ or politics, it got in because of what it has PROVED on the field.
Let me add this Alabama is the only other team with 10 wins over bowl eligible opponents, Alabama has 10, Florida St. 9, and Oregon with only 7.
