I do think Ohio St deserved to be in over TCU or Baylor. If you can't win your conference outright or don't have a conference championship game then you shouldn't get to play in the playoff. Ala, FSU and Ore all won their conference championship and would have had to play one more game than TCU or Baylor then Ohio St eon theirs as well. Think they sent a message to all conferenced..play a championship game and win it..Just like Ala a few yrs ago. They couldn't even win the West and got to play for the NC against LSU who beat them, won the west and the SEC. If you can't win your conference, division or not play a conference championship like everyone else then you don't deserve the chance to win the NC. And the Big 12 usef to have one it made no sense to quit having one but it ultimately cost TCU and Baylor.
