Respectfully, a couple in here have no clue what they're talking about. Maybe those should look at the history of the selection committee and then comment.
Compare resumes. Washington’s to OSU. It’s a debate for sure, but if Washington loses a close game to Oregon. Their resume stacks up better.
now if they get blown out. Then I agree, OSU gets the nod.
Talking about the committee and their history, there is simply no way the committee leaves out Florida state. They allowed in Ohio state with a 3rd stringer a few years back. They won’t leave out Florida state if they win Saturday

OSU was ranked higher than Wash and FSU before their narrow loss to Michigan. If they both have 1 loss, OSU will again be ahead of FSU. YOU make no sense. I get it, you don't like OSU
They were pushed out of the top 4 after a win due to losing their QB. You think a win against a 2 loss Louisville is really going to help them? LOL. Ooooook. It doesn't matter if they win their conf championship game.
they were pushed out of the top 4 because Washington won on the road at top 15 Oregon state. Washington was rewarded.
there were 5 undefeated power 5 teams. They were pushed to 5th as they should be. They didn’t get pushed lower than 1 loss teams and won’t be. Now there are only 4 undefeated and they’ll land squarely inside of the top 4 and Stay there until they lose
FSU is gone no matter what. The committee won't put them in with no QB.
Quit looking at the AP poll. Lol. It's irrelevant
FSU only played the schedule that was in front of them. If they go 13-0 and don't get in then Ohio St. isn't getting in period! No 1 loss Ohio St team is getting in over a 13-0 FSU team.
Ohio St. was lucky to beat ND. They didn't really beat up PSU and all of their other wins were against lesser competition. They really don't deserve to be in.......and I'm holding a National Championship ticket on them!

LOL. I can say Michigan was lucky to beat Ohio State at home. The difference in that game was 1 OSU turnover inside their own 10 yard line which gifted Michigan 7 points. We can argue this all day.
But Michigan did win! If Ohio St. Won I would say the same thing about Michigan. The big 10 doesn't deserve 2 teams.
The SEC is the only conference that ever deserves 2 teams and I always hated that but it's the best conference. Alabama will lose to UGA and be left out and Alabama would blowout Michigan, Ohio St, Oregon, Washington, FSU, and probably Texas at this point in the season!

To take it a step farther. I actually think the committee will move OSU down farther than 6 tonight. I think they land at 7. Texas should move ahead of OSU, and Alabama is debatable
but like others have said. The osu resume doesn’t add up this year. They’ve beaten 2 ranked teams. None currently in the top 10.
All the other contenders: Oregon, Alabama, Washington. And Texas have better wins, and none have a bad loss or will have a bad loss by years end.
even Florida state will have 3 ranked wins by years end if they win out.
there just isn’t any justification for Ohio state getting in over any of the above teams. Playing Michigan close doesn’t cut it. Texas played Oklahoma close, Alabama plays Texas close, Oregon played Washington close. It can all be said.
you have to be clearly better than everyone else is your not a conference champion. Ohio state isn’t that this year, and won’t be without some serious chaos.

The problem regarding your Washington/Ohio State logic is you are not taking into account other metrics and how they’ve actually won
Washington has basically struggled for half a season. The committee doesn’t overlook that. And past history indicates this as well.
The fact that they had Ohio State at #1 at one point and had Washington behind even Florida State matters
I get your point about Washington beating the only team it lost to, but Ohio State beats Washington in a lot of metrics the committee considers even with one less data point
The “eye test” also does have some weight, believe it or not
Georgia is NOT automatically in with a loss against Bama. It would be a toss up between Ga and OSU depending on what the other top teams do
