Well this should put the committee's nuts in the vice.
SMU - Ranked #8 going into CCG week with a record of 11-1. Lose the CCG, a 13th game to #17 Clemson
Alabama - Ranked #11 going into CCG week with a record of 9-3. DNP so no 13th game to evaluate
But does this tell the whole story?
Case for/against SMU
SMU has no wins over the currently ranked CFP. But neither do Texas or Indiana.
SMU losses are to #17 Clemson, #18 BYU
How far do they drop for losing the a very close 13th game....where they looked horrible in the first half.
Case for/against Alabama
Bama has wins over currently ranked #5 Georgia, #14 South Carolina, #19 Missouri
Bama losses are to #7 Tennessee, and unranked Vanderbilt and Oklahoma.
Do they rise, stay the same or drop in the rankings after not playing a 13th game.
How about screw it. Listen to the masses and put South Carolina in as a tribute to
@Hu War Yu ?
