That's exactly what I have been thinking will inexplicably happen.
I'm not exactly advocating for UCF in the playoff, but they can move down two spots when they blow out a much better team than Nebraska.
Ranked in all three polls!

Boy, gotta keep Iowa in there to help the Big Ten power ranking, don't they?
Same with The Gazette. There would still be 3 pages about what Iowa did for practice on 12/1.
**** Iowa. They shouldn’t be in the top 25 CFP teams, let alone be ahead of us.
I'm certainly no Iowa fan, but they are like 3 plays away from being 9-0. Their schedule has been garbage, but I can understand their ranking.
Is it possible they are writing articles that the majority of their audience wants to read about? I don’t understand why there is so much anger about newspaper articles. If you arent satisfied with the content your local newspaper provides, there are other options.
Wtf. TOE is 4th in the big 10 west. Lol this thing is a joke.
...why? Iowa won the head-to-head, has one more win overall, and ISU has the "worst" loss between the two teams. They are right next to each other in the rankings which makes sense.
Funny that you don’t include the strength of schedule, best win between the two, and ISU’s first game being cancelled.
I mean, an Iowa fan would never do that on purpose...
Hey, do the mods know that mj’s account has been hacked by a Hawkeye fan and using it to post typical Hawkeye fantasies?

What has Penn State and Iowa done to prove they deserve to be ranked? Iowa's only good win is vs Iowa State. Penn State's only good win is Iowa.Entire Top 25 in CFP Poll:
Notice how they slipped NC State from 20 to 14 after beating a bad Florida State team. NC state hasn't beaten a ranked team all year.
Their schedule hasn't been garbage at all. It was top 30 last I saw. You're better than that mj.
Including a game that wasn't played wouldn't make sense, but for argument's sake if it was included it would hurt your SOS.
Iowa has as much reason to be ranked ahead of ISU based on the reasons I gave as ISU does based on the reasons you gave. Ultimately they're neck and neck which seems about right.
It would hurt the SOS but would it still be better than Iowa? Yes. So both would have the same record, and one team would have played a harder schedule and have a better win.
Like I said, an Iowa fan would never leave that info out on purpose.
