Overall Rationale: I want to make a note that according to my computer, Georgia would be included in the playoff. This does not reflect my personal view. I think Oklahoma is rightfully the #4 team because they have beat every team on their schedule, given that their sole loss came to Texas, and they were able to avenge that loss this week. Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, and UCF fill out, to me, what is a pretty good top 8.
