I know they haven't dicked Utah yet, I'm just wondering the rationale for dicking them. Too many cupcakes in the PAC, strength of frosting. etc.
If anything the Committee has shown a lot of of love for Utah, a team with consistent strong performances but no top 25 wins. The Utes are5th, one spot out of the playoffs with Georgia(3top 25 wins) sitting fourth.
Utah wins the Pac12 and LSU beats the ‘ dawgs the Utes are in.
What if LSU beats Georgia, Utah is less than impressive in beating Oregon and Oklahoma destroys Baylor? If each ranking is supposed to be different, does Utah's number 5 and Oklahoma's number 6 then matter?
Each ranking is not “supposed” to be different. Each week presents more info to sort through but that does not guarantee a different outcome.
Utah, without a top 25 win, is already ahead of Oklahoma who has a win over ranked Baylor. I don’t think another win over Baylor can push the Sooners past Utah.
Georgia takes at least 4th with a win over LSU.
A loss, in my opinion, puts a Pac12 Champion Utah into 4th place.
