I think those sound like some good options, especially BYU. And if we (the Pac-12) fail to secure any reputable team we'll just take any community college available. (Crikes, I thought the Pac-12 was an untouchable super conference, how quickly time & money change everything.)

The Pac-12 tradition of eating it's young has led to rare Nat Champ opportunities. There is enough quality there that top teams are at risk and presents the East Coast Sporting press the opportunity to ignore it, which they do with impunity. I'd put the UW up against an SEC contender with the best QB in college right now.

I think that the committee got it right.
G and M are obvious.
TCU and THE Ohio State are the only other one loss teams.
-I've long asserted that a loss is a loss no matter what month its in so just because TCU and THE O lost in December doesn't mean that the loss is 'worse'.

Dirt didn't realize I was watching a bowl game!!! The Boise State uniforms look like a design from Teletubbies or if a pre teen approved the color scheme.. Just saying..

What a couple of incredible games today!

TCU with the upset over Michigan! - didn't see that coming. Congratulations to Sonny Dykes - he's vaulted TCU into a football powerhouse.

A back & forth game with the Buckeyes & Dawgs. Amazing performance by C.J. Stroud showing his ability as an elite QB - perhaps the best of this year's prospects. Great last drive giving his team a chance but the missed 50 yd FG attempt ended it all. And what can you say about Stetson Bennett - not even a top recruit out of HS & he's playing in his 2nd national title game!

The Dawgs & the Frogs for all the marbles in LA.

I'm glad that I don't bet money on things because I would have bet that M and G would meet in the title game with G winning by one score. M is out! G should still win but TCU is HOT!

Sitting inside in drizzly, cold trying to explain what the Rose Bowl Parade is and what the Rose Bowl used to represent in the college football lexicon.. That aside I think that the playoff and designated championship game afterward is superior to the old arguably arbitrary system..

G 2X!

Yeah, shame that TCU upset Michigan. Would have been a much better game........maybe Georgia would have been held to 49 lol.

I can't imagine Michigan would have gotten hammered like that. TCU was totally outclassed - a colossal embarrassment. I wonder if they'll drop out of the top-25 in the final rankings. Lol.

What's unfortunate about this is that though TCU had a stellar season winning the Big-12, making the playoffs & beating Michigan in the semis all under 1st yr coach Sonny Dykes, they'll will be remembered for getting annihilated & embarrassed by Georgia in the title game.

Agree that Michigan would have been more competitive.. Both lines for TCU were porous.. coach was semi classy, the color people threw in that Georgia watched some Kobe Bryant video that they summarized as you need to bury your opponent.. Coach played lots of the bench but they still were rolling over TCU..afterwards you could see that there was mutual respect between the Heisman candidates..
I don't watch lots but from what I do.. really think that the playoffs and championship game is better and was long long overdue

I can't see it would have been anywhere near that big of a blowout but I still can't see how it would have been any less than a 20 point win for Georgia. They were definitely a big jump better than anyone else in NCAA
