they had a bunch of big wins last year tho. they dont this year. nor can they even get them.

*You think losing 55-24 to eventual 7-5 Iowa was "better" than losing 49-20 to now 4-3 Purdue HOW, exactly? Iowa went out and lost their next 2, btw.
*This, I guess means losing to Oklahoma by 15 at home is *better* than beating TCU by 12 in Dallas?
*Last year in the first CFP ranking the top 13 all had 1 loss or better. That's after week 10 but we're already in the same ballpark anyway. There won't be that many teams really in contention by the end.
*The big12 teams *will* all end up with two or more losses because they all keep playing each other including a rematch CCG with their 2nd-best team.
Like, I get that you're down but this is all so over the top.
youre not sure where to start. nor are you sure where to finish. bc you arent sure of wtf you are even talking about.
I said I dont think osu deserves to get in this year. but I guess that still offends you? sorrysnowflake.
yes good wins last year. in the final poll before the bowl games they throttled no6 wisky (thats a hudge win sorry bro) and beat no9 psu (another massive win). 2 wins over 2 top ten teams. not sure anyone else did that last year.
they also absolutely shellacked a 16th ranked msu 48-3. thats a good win!
if the win out they likely wont have a win as good as last years msu win and certainly wont beat a top 10 team, let alone 2. like psu has 2 losses. wisky has 2 losses. msu is unranked. their best win will be over a michigan team that will then finish with at best 2 losses and drop to the mid teens. maybe iowa wins out and then osu can give them their 2nd loss and thats another mid teen team then. thats the best case scenario.
so ya, its quite clear that they had a much better resume last year even with 2 losses. I know its hard to see through that insane bia but please try to use your brain a little bit.

*Good wins? Last year? You mean Penn State by 1 at home? Wisconsin by 6? Surely, surely, surely you're not referring to Michigan State!
so beating the no9 team is not good. beating an undefeated team in a conf title game at a neutral site? meh. destroying the 16th team? nope not impressive.
and Im the one saying they dont deserve it. so like, you are preemptively getting mad at me bc they might make the playoffs?
oh wait

its not the benefit of the doubt to finish above a team that you convincingly beat a weak earlier. so ya, I see your problem is being mentally challenged.
