Unless my memory has vapor locked (a distinct possibility) Ohio State was hoisted over a higher ranked Penn State last year on the grounds that the committee felt they were the better team.
For my 2 cents Alabama should be in over Ohio State. We shall see.
A local sports radio big shot here in NY claimed during the week that on a neutral field Alabama would be favored over any other contenders. I think he's correct. They lost at a bad time. That doesn't translate to them necessarily being excluded in my opinion.
I'm a big UGA fan anyway. Been so only since 2012. Superstorm Sandy had walloped us in NJ and the power was out for 8 days by me. Was getting real chilly at night in the old farmhouse. Was sitting in the car at a local supermarket that somehow had power when a huge convoy of enormous white power utility trucks came rumbling down the street. Large black letters on the side GEORGIA POWER. Electric was back on with 30 minutes. The cavalry!
Go Dawgs.
