I doubt the committee leaves UW out at 12-1 and PAC-12 conference champions, and wins over Stanford, WSU, Utah, and Colorado... a couple by blowouts.

I agree it's hard to move someone down from #4 if they won their conf championship by a wide margin.

But if Penn State wins (and it looks like they will), people will argue they should move up because they won *their* conf championship, their conf is stronger than the Pac-12 (which I believe), and they beat the #2 team head-to-head.
