Overranked:
5 Texas Tech - abysmal SoS. It's seriously G5 tier. I just don't see how anyone could possibly rank them above Oregon. They could probably fall 3-4 spots with no complaints.
8 Oklahoma - feels like the committee just swapped them and Bama due to h2h. But the truth is that Bama has a top 10 SOS and I don't think h2h overcomes that. I'd swap them back.
13 Utah - poor SOS with two losses to boot
18 Virginia - not sure what the committee is even doing here. My poll predictor has them at 28. There's no redeeming stats or qualities that might make them a hidden gem.
21-25 Feels like the committee gives up once they reach this point. Tulane is somewhat justifiable as they have a tough schedule for a G5 (it's tougher than Tech's and comparable to Utah). I don't understand leaving off Washington, Mizzou, Iowa, Illinois, LSU for these teams except they want to avoid a B1G/SEC bias but the reality is what it is this year. I'd have North Texas over Tulane for now, but I suppose that'll work itself out.
Finally,
1 Ohio State - I completely understand why they are here, but no one is pointing these things out, so I feel I must. This must be the easiest P2 schedule and if it weren't for Tech, it'd arguably be the easiest P4 schedule. How they managed to do this in the B1G with Texas non-conf is wild. Replace Texas with a rust belt directional school and it's actually worse then Tech's schedule. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere despite people complaining about Indiana and aggy getting an easy ride.
