is that while RPI, talent and other factors matter, teams like UGA and Mich St, played their way into their seeding. It's like UGA clearly being a superior product on the football field in its totality, but us and the Championship committee knowing that, doesn't wash away our losses to inferior teams. And we were deservedly snubbed from a major bowl. There's only so much woulda-shoulda that can be explained away without a proper penalty. Mich St's eleven losses suggest they were properly seeded. It's just our misfortune that we were pitted against an underachieving buzz saw. But it's not like either team didn't back into/play their way their respective seeding. A couple unfortunate losses is one thing, a pattern is something different altogether.
