That Alabama win over Georgia sure messed things up, didn't it.
1. Michigan
2. Washington
Those two seem locked in since they were two and three going into the weekend and both won their games.
Georgia was the #1 team all season and lost a close game to a team that has improved constantly all season. It seems hard to keep them out, except...
Florida State was also undefeated, albeit less impressively than Washington and Michigan. Their last couple of games were lackluster, but they had their back and third string (freshman) QBs playing. An undefeated team has never been excluded that I am aware. They deserve to be in.
3. Florida State
Ohio State is a great team that had a great season until the Michigan game. They have an argument, but not as big an argument as the SEC winner.
Alabama steadily improved all season after losing to Texas early. I am still not sold on their QBs ability to throw the ball consistently, but they are the SEC champions. I will take them as the 4th team.
4. Alabama
Texas has an impressive win against Oklahoma State and a great season. They went into the weekend ranked #7 in the playoff rankings, one step ahead of Alabama. They deserve to go, but I am staying with the SEC champs. Life is not fair.
Seven teams for 4 spots is just a difficult situation. This will be resolved next year when the playoff goes to 12 teams, but then the 13th and 14th teams will have an argument. The selections above are what I think will happen. What I would really like to see is the exclusion of FSU and the inclusion of Georgia (sorry Texas).
