[QUOTE="Planks, post: 3224524, member: 55819"] In my opinion, possibly a more important ranking from tonight was Penn State (Ohio State’s best win) and Kansas State (TCU’s best win). Penn State is now #8 and Kansas State is now #10 Last week Penn State was #11 and Kansas State #12, only one spot apart. My fear was that the committee was going to use Tulane’s loss as an excuse to really increase the separation between Penn State and Kansas State, which they did, but only a by one additional spot bringing the difference to 2 spots (for reference, Penn State is 5 spots ahead in the AP poll). With only 2 spots separating Penn State and Kansas State, I think it’s almost certain Penn State is passed by Kansas State if they beat us and become Big 12 champions. That means we will have they “better win” when compared to Ohio State. Now, the question is, how will the committee treat this? Will they consider our games against Kansas State as two separate, independent data points, essentially a good win and a good loss? Or will they treat our more recent loss in the conference championship game as invalidating our regular season win over Kansas State? [/QUOTE]
