I know I know.  Stanford is not going to the Rose Bowl.  Just thinking out loud, thinking about WA against OSU. 

Do the Huskies stay within 3 TDs of OSU?

Northwestern stayed within 3 TDs of OSU, and I think UW is better than Northwestern.  That said, I would expect OSU to be favored by 10-14.  

The CFP committee hasn't spoken the last word yet, however.  They may still slot Ohio State ahead of Oklahoma in the final rankings: an Urban Meyer-Nick Saban semi-final may be too tempting.  In that case, the Dawgs would play Michigan, which would be a better match-up.

I think it would depend on which Ohio State team showed up. The team that kicked Michigan's butt or the one that barely squeaked by Nebraska and Maryland and lost to Purdue.

Agree.  But the Buckeyes appear to have turned a corner now.  Baffling how they could let Purdue manhandle them, but the same thing happened against Iowa last year.  Urban may be watching the CFP from the couch again.
