Yeah, the first year, our loss was to a highly ranked NY 6 bowl team. The next year, their's was to a very bad Texas team.
If OU wasn't the team that should have been picked in 2015, who should have?
Iowa? (1 loss)
Stanford? (2 losses)
Ohio State? (1 loss)
Notre Dame? (2 losses)
Florida State? (1 loss)
You're implying that OU only made it because they are a big brand. Well, OK, compare the resumes of teams 5-9 and tell me who should have made it instead of OU. You're obviously ignoring the obvious difference in the 2014 and 2015 scenarios.
