Why does the CFP committee believe that Boise State is more deserving of a top-four seed than the Big 12 champion? RJ Young answers that question and more.
There were several big-picture questions heading into Tuesday night's College Football Playoff rankings reveal: 1. Where would Ohio State fall after its loss to Michigan? 2. Will Boise State be ranked ahead of the top Big 12 – or even top ACC – team? 3. What can we learn from this set of rankings that will carry over to Sunday's CFP reveal? Here are the answers we got to those pressing questions following the fifth CFP reveal: Ohio State dropping at least four spots was expected.
4 seed in the latest CFP reveal, but will the selection committee keep them in that spot with a win in the Mountain West Championship Game against a 10-win UNLV team? While receiving the No. 4 seed is outstanding for the Broncos, it likely jams up the Big 12 champion — whether it's Iowa State or Arizona State — because the assumption that the four P4 champs will slot into the highest-ranked conference spot is blown to smithereens. The selection committee can choose violence.
