Michigan Wolverine Football: My Top 4 — What Is Yours
The committee is meeting right now and will decide who will make the college football playoffs. Many believe it is done to six teams for those final four spots.

Here is my list.
1) Alabama
2) Oregon
3) Florida State
4) Ohio State
Those teams looking outside
5) TCU
6) Baylor
I think the committee will make it hard to have my top four teams in the final with how they jumped TCU last week to #3 and them blowing out a bad Iowa State team yesterday because TCU and their fans can say what happened in a week from us moving up a spot to dropping out of the top 4 spots. I also cannot believe that TCU is ahead of Baylor since they lost head to head and should have been corrected weeks ago, but has put the committee into a tough spot for teams later on saying head to head doesn’t matter especially if you look at their record, strength of schedule, and everything else considered.

I don’t want Baylor in the top 4 either because that will show that all you have to do is have an easy schedule and win football games. They had one of the worst non-conference schedules in college football and shouldn’t be rewarded for it by placing them into the college football playoffs. That is similar to the old BCS formula where your better off being undefeated and not playing anybody then having 1 or 2 losses against a top schedule.
Alabama is Bama … they know when to put it together and by far has the best football talent on any roster from top to bottom.
Oregon showed that they didn’t take RR and Arizona serious this year or even last year. When focused and prepared to play they have shown what they can do as well.
Florida State might not be playing that great of football games or blowing teams out of the water, but they are winning football games and you cannot deny they did it and against some decent competition. How can you keep them out of the playoffs when they are undefeated in a power 5 conference.

Got to give Ohio State credit for winning with injuries especially at the biggest position on your football team. Maybe Braxton Miller will transfer to Michigan now for his fifth year … oh that’s right we don’t like taking 5th year QB’s or players? Yes they looked bad against Virginia Tech, but they are completely different team from that game especially with how their quarterbacks have stepped up.
If my predictions come true that means:
Bama vs. Buckeyes in the Sugar Bowl
Oregon vs. Florida State in the Rose Bowl.
Think after those two games it becomes:
Bama vs. Oregon
Actually what I would like to see is Oregon at #1 and OSU at #4 … would love to see Oregon take down OSU big-time, but that would also mean at the Sugar Bowl and OSU always travels well and would be a big-time home field advantage.
