Traveling, tuned into ESPNU on XM only to hear what HD had to say. Apparently she has some in roads with the committee.
> HD remarked that the committee believes Alabama and Clemson clearly has separated themselves from the other schools
> if UGA beats Alabama in a close game, PO would be Clemson, ND, UGA and Alabama.
When asked about why not OU or OSU if they win, she said that the committee had Alabama ranked ahead of those two schools all year and probably would keep them ranked ahead of those two
> When the committee was asked about OU’s offense, they said that their offense is so good that it compensates for their defense
> she said for OSU to move ahead of OU that they would have to hammer NW while OU struggles to beat Texas. She also said that OSU made it to the final 4 several years ago without once being in the top 4 during the regular season
> And since we are going to be playing UGA
next year, UGA team is currently comprised of a little over 60% frosh/soph. So what they are achieving now is really good.
Just thought you would be interested.
