We Catholics got a guy in the White House this year but no team in the college football playoff.
Not so sure about that.
Alabama is clearly the #1 team in the country, Clemson is clearly #2, I guess you can pencil in OSU as #3. Beyond that the committee has flexibility. If they were just ranking the 4 best teams in the country, I could see a strong argument for TAMU at #4. But they're not just doing that, they're also creating a product for TV viewers. Whoever they pick at #4 has to play Alabama, and TAMU already played Alabama this year and it wasn't a close or interesting game. Do TV viewers really want to see Alabama/TAMU again?
Bama/ND is probably a blowout, but TV viewers would probably prefer it to any of the alternatives.
