Ohio State has 0 wins over the Top 25

I don’t understand how the CFP justifies the placement of the B1G teams.

The B1G teams on this list are a combined 0-3 against OOC teams on this list. How can the CFP justify how highly they’ve ranked them? There isn’t any logical consistency to the list but the list has the internal consistency that clearly values the B1G Midwest teams over the non-B1G Midwest teams despite the B1G’s 0-2 record to us.

I don’t want to be in the playoff - I’m not annoyed as an ND fan - I’m annoyed because there was supposed to be some logic introduced into all this when they handed over all the postseason power to these guys. All I see is a desire to hype scheduled end of the season B1G games.

Or why Oregon is ahead of OSU despite the Stanford loss - manofdillon 2021-11-10 15:01:49
- I think head-to-head results get overemphasized. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 15:33:27
  - You don't think FSU was capable of losing to BC at home. Ok. - smcdermo 2021-11-11 10:03:53
    - Good point. "Incapable" was the wrong word. - rockmcd 2021-11-11 11:41:26

      - Arguably 2015 MSU over Ohio St, based on head to head. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 18:13:19
        You seem to place a lot of emphasis on losses over wins. - revressbo 2021-11-10 18:32:14
        Yes, I do in some instances. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 20:25:33
        so the committee sent Mich. St. over OSU in a close call? - MrE 2021-11-10 18:22:55
        Ohio State’s win over Michigan was their only win worth - athlete37 2021-11-10 18:40:26
        got it, that's not a close call. * - MrE 2021-11-10 18:51:12
        Not a close call based on the established criteria. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 20:05:51
        Right. MSU had a much better resume. - NDCuse 2021-11-11 09:54:28
        got it, I see what you're saying. - MrE 2021-11-10 20:33:25
        Definitely not wrong though - NDAtty 2021-11-12 11:08:43
      - How would we know? - NDCuse 2021-11-10 17:12:29
        I honestly don't know. I don't recall any major outcries - MrE 2021-11-10 17:27:14
      - There’s really no way to know. - MobileIrish 2021-11-10 17:04:00
  - So, in this world, the little bit better team - DakotaDomer 2021-11-10 15:51:52
    - I don't follow. Can you dumb that down for me? * - rockmcd 2021-11-10 15:57:17
      - You used the phrase “little bit better” 4 times - DakotaDomer 2021-11-10 18:47:55
        Yes, because they weren't one game seasons. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 19:34:02
        Right - but collectively - you’re 0-4 on the field - DakotaDomer 2021-11-10 19:59:49
        No, the better team usually wins. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 20:33:11
  - Team should play 3-game series each weekend - ndzippy 2021-11-10 15:42:05
    - Or play 12 different opponents. To-may-to/To-mah-to. - rockmcd 2021-11-10 16:02:58
