I believe it is. I am a long time Penn State fan and I am still burning about them not making the final four a couple of years ago when the beat the Buckeyes and then got passed over by THE Ohio State. The results on the field should determine who is in the playoffs. (I know, I may just be bitter).
It seams that the committee bends over backwards to get them into the final four.
today's announcement will be interesting. To me, it is clear that the Sooners should be the fourth playoff team.
There is still an argument that Georgia could still be in the playoffs. I know this won't happen, but they may be one of the best teams this year
