That won't be a catch.
Is that actually a product of better football or a product of bias in rankings?
True but I think conference bias keeps out those who just might win. I think the only solution is an 8 team playoff with automatic conference berths and 3 at large.
it really is funny to hear SEC people claim the SEC doesn't get favorable treatment in the polls. It's like people who think CNN is balanced coverage. Or Patriot fans claiming they didn't cheat.
Utah losing changes things a lot. It now brings into play that either Clemson or Ohio State could possibly get in with a loss, but not both of them. One of then with just 1 loss would likely be left out if Georgia wins. They would shove Georgia and LSU in there along with likely the Big 12 winner and whoever looked better between Ohio State and Clemson in their hypothetical loss.

No bias...none at all. Take a look at the AP poll this week. Highest ranked undefeated team.....SEC, top ranked one loss team....SEC, top ranked two loss team...SEC, top ranked 3 loss team....SEC.
C'mon.
