Like I said, the committee is looking at who you beat, not who you lost to, if they are ranking 1 loss Clemson over undefeated Miami and Wisconsin.
A win over Penn State is a wash with a win over Notre Dame. Penn State plays Maryland and Nebraska to finish the year. They too will be 10-2.
Who does Miami then put out there from their resume that is equal to Wisconsin, or even Michigan State after that?
I mean, a 1 loss non-conference champ got in last year over a 2 loss conference champ and bonus, that 2 loss conference champ beat the 1 loss team.
And if Miami loses a really, really close game to Clemson? I don't think it'll be a tough decision for the committee at all.
I also don't think the only thing the committee is looking at is who you beat. They clearly take margin of victory into account, or else Miami would be ranked #1 right now. Ohio State getting blasted by Iowa will surely have an effect.
