CFP selection committee chairman Boo Corrigan said the committee still has “a lot of respect” for Ohio State and that a loss this weekend would be part of a team’s “body of work.”
At the very least, Ohio State has a chance to be in the conversation for a College Football Playoff berth this weekend.slotted fifth in the penultimate CFP rankings
College Football Playoff selection committee chairman Boo Corrigan wouldn’t entirely rule out the possibility that the order of those teams could still change in Sunday’s final rankings even though none of them are playing this weekend, though he said the committee felt this week Ohio State belonged ahead of Alabama, which has two losses and has not beaten any team ranked higher than 20th , and Tennessee, which also has two losses including a 63-38 loss to South Carolina two weeks ago.
All of them are favored to do so, but TCU and USC are not heavy favorites, as the third-ranked Horned Frogs are favored by only 2.5 points against No. 10 Kansas State – a team they beat by 10 at TCU earlier this season – while the fourth-ranked Trojans are favored by only three points against No. 14 Utah, who beat the Trojans 43-42 at Utah in October.
