    Money and ratings. No other logical explanation. OSU is either the largest or 2nd largest school in the nation. ESPNradio hosts have been clamoring for two weeks that they believe OSU is in if they beat Wisconsin. Then not only did they win but they won in the most convincing victory of the weekend.

    I don't see how they can justify dropping TCU 2 spots after a victory. They just moved them up to 3rd this week. Besides we all know Wussconsin doesn't belong in the top 25.

    I'm telling you they only moved TCU up to 3 so they could say they gave them a serious look when this exact scenario panned out. I think they were hoping FSU would lose.

    Depends on how much influence Herbie and Suburban have on the committee. I warned everyone a few weeks ago to watch out for the luckeyes

    Most boring finish to the college football season in a long time. The favorite won every game. Not one team was upset or even in real danger of it happening. FSU the closest even they controlled the 2nd half

    then why not keep FSU 3 so if they lose they are out either way. now they are screwed. they cant put OSU in now IMO.

    What did TCU have to do? Score 100?

    They want FSU at #4 for the TV matchup with Alabama

    I agree moving them to 3rd gave the committee less wiggle room. Dropping TCU out now would scream corrupt system!
