If the Committee is more analytics driven, it is clear who is #1. OSU is #1 in 28 of the 33 computer polls currently out on Massey's Composite website. In Bill Connelly's SP+, OSU is #1 at 35.4, whereas LSU is #3 at 31.8. These are objective measures and not subject to bias-pushing talking heads on Networks with financial stakes. Hopefully, the Committee doesn't listen to their propaganda.
