Its already kind of started in the way that they have started being more delusional than usual.

A quick read thru of BWI noted -

1. Wisconsin is apparently better than Ohio State and Michigan.

2. State Penn has the "best offense in all of college football"

#1 is fantastic

Wiscy lost to both OSU and TTUN, so saying they're better than both is an acknowledgment that the better team doesn't always win, which utterly obliterates the primary complaint they'll have against the committee tomorrow

I hope the Pedo Lions get shafted today and left out of the playoffs.

Do you mean it will be hilarious watching them freak out when the world gives them what they deserve and their cult hive mind can't handle it?

"Get shafted" implies they deserve to be in the playoffs. Don't like it? don't lose to Pitt and get crushed by Michigan.

To me the blind test shows OSU has the best resume by far and it's not close.

After that it's pretty equal.

Michigan is out because they lose the conference championship tie breaker.

Penn State, Clemson and Washinton all have conference championships and resumes that are roughly equal.

In that scenario, Penn State has two losses while Clemson and Washington have 1.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

This is the quote I was referring to:

Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany’s comments on ESPN’s College GameDay made it seem the league office had abandoned its championship game participants in favor of WOOOOOOOOO, BUCKEYES AND WOLVERINES. When the playoff was formulated, Delany wanted only conference champions allowed into it. This, presumably, was to keep the SEC from overrunning the playoff. Delany should have had a little more confidence in his own league. At any rate, Delany has ditched that deeply held belief because he’d like a team from his league to win the national title, and Ohio State’s résumé suggests the Buckeyes are that team. “I lost that election four years ago," Delany said Saturday morning on the GameDay set. “I argued for the four best conference champions. That was not the decision. We lost that election. That election was four years ago. We have to understand that elections happen, certain ideas are adopted and we're at a different place now. It's four best teams. And conference championships are there to help sort that cluster out, as well as head-to-head as well as strength of schedule.”

But maybe Delany wasn’t throwing the future champion Nittany Lions under the bus. In those comments, he said he thought Alabama and Ohio State had done enough to make the playoff. He never said anything about Washington or Clemson. And perhaps Delany is on to something with this line of thinking. What if this isn’t an Ohio State-Penn State argument? If the committee is willing to allow the first non-conference champion into the bracket, why wouldn’t it be willing to consider two teams from the same conference? What if this is really an Ohio State-Clemson-Washington-Michigan-Penn State argument with three spots available for those five teams?
