Does OK State get in The Invitational by winning tonight and then beating baylor next week? Beating #10 and #8 in back to back weeks has to look good on their resume.
No sadly if ND wins tonight (highly likely) and Cincy wins next week and gets in ND will have the "best loss" (Cincy) of the 1 loss teams. So if those 2 things happen and Georgia beats Bama ND's getting in. Let's face it it's a TV show more than anything and if the first 3 in are Georgia, Michigan and Cincy there is not a chance in hell the take Okie Lite over ND

But Okie should have more wins over top 25 teams than ND, no? NDs only win against top 25 is Wisconsin, who lost today.

Just wish they'd picked the 1-loss team with the best loss in 2014. No doubt that a 3-point road loss against a top-10 team beats a 14-point home loss to an unranked team. But the rule then was best win (or most data points, depending on which rep was talking at the time).

That's probably the way it should work but I'm just trying use the logic the committee will use. If their only loss is to a #3 Cincy team and they want TV ratings (which they do) who would they choose? Sorry but ND/Georgia is going to easily out rate Okie Lite/Georgia.
