And OSU didn’t get left out because they lost to Iowa, they got left out because they did what the committee supposedly wants people to do: schedule tough OOC opponants. They schedule a cupcake instead of OU and they get in as a 1 loss Big 10 champ no questions asked, even with the loss to Iowa. 

Don't kid yourself. They definitely got left out, in part, due to the loss to Iowa.

It wasn't just that they lost to Iowa, they got rolled, the Hawkeyes layed 55 on them.

No way Ohio State deserved to be in the playoffs.  If you get in, great....roll the dice, but even the Buckeye message boards are overwhelmingly OK with getting left out. 

Now if Bama had been left out, death threats would be sent, dogs would be poisoned and the University president would be holding some ridiculous press conference tomorrow that would be the embodiment of everything wrong in American higher education specifically and American culture in general.

I'm looking forward to a new head coach who isn't a cud-chewing autistic retard.

Oh, I know that. Thought I pointed that out in a previous comment. Getting nut-docked by a middling team hurt them a lot.

Wow, CSU really about got ditched. 

 Not at all, CSU was in waiting for an opponent.  UTSA was promising 10k tickets and fans to attend.  ESPN wanted Marshall and their TV ratings.  81 eligible  bowl teams 78 spots, the poinsettia bowl was missed

The P12 seems like an afterthought.. I know UW got in last year but their status has taken a hit since we went to the playoffs.

This year, the P12 was down but previously the conference was in 2 of the first 3.  I don’t think that’s an after thought.

Oregon was in the championship just a few years ago.

Are Marshall's ratings really that good? Would have rather had UTSA again.

Imho if you have a 4 team playoff those teams should be conference champions.  It's the same stipulation the P5 put on the G5.    

Disagree. Instead there should be an automatic disqualifier for any team which loses to Iowa by 31.

Boom goes the dynamite.

Do you know the requirements for teams to purchase/guarantee ticket allotments by each bowl?

Are these really the payouts? I'm shocked the New Mexico Bowl is so high, I could have sworn I saw the payout totals a few years ago and the New Mexico Bowl was second to last in the conference after the Potato Bowl. I wonder if it was raised recently.

 

It was previously $456,250, not sure when it was raised.
