I take polls and voters with a grain of salt as all voters have their personal biases. I like to follow analytics that measure the strength of teams. At www.footballoutsiders.com, their analytics including SP+, FEI, and F+ now all clearly have OSU as the number one team in the country. I personally like the SP+ rating system. I know the playoff "committee" takes these analytics into account in their discussions. I Like it more than the "resume". Even our defense is now up to about #8 in analytics. Maybe someone more technically savvy than me can actually share the rankings here.
