University football screenings: debate between the Ohio State and Oklahoma begins for the university football game

The upheavals that are overturning the college football playoff rankings and the cup screenings have finally begun. Washington State, No. 8, was the first team to fall. He was beaten Friday at home by the No. 16 Washington, which cost the Cougars not only a potential place for the playoffs, but also a chance to play the match of the championship Pac-12. But the biggest domino to fall so far is Michigan, No. 4, who moved away from the Ohio stadium after a 62-39 loss to No. 10 Ohio State early Saturday afternoon.

The Wolverines' defense, which was one of the nation's best since the start of the match, was completely destroyed from the start. Ohio State scored more points against the Wolverines than Michigan dropped in their previous five combined games.

Georgia No. 5 limited Georgia Tech 45-21 to No. 4 in this week's CFP standings; However, this should be temporary as the Bulldogs face first place, Alabama, in the SEC Championship game next week, a game that will upset the standings, regardless of the outcome. This could leave the committee with a debate between the current Ohio State No. 10 and No. 6 Oklahoma State, which escaped the 13th West Virginia with a win of 59-56 on Friday night.

This is not an easy task for the committee, which has seen the Sooners far outnumber the Buckeyes since the Ohio State lost 49-20 at Purdue on October 20th. However, the defense of Oklahoma is one of the worst for a team with this good one record. The Sooners have lost at least 40 points in six of their 12 games, including the last four. The Oklahoma offensive, led by Heisman Trophy nominee Kyler Murray, is, however, a juggernaut. The Sooners scored at least 45 points in every conference match, with the exception of the one against Iowa State, Number 25.

The Ohio State defense has also been much criticized, but not as bad as Oklahoma's. The Ohio State offensive is not as good as Oklahoma's. The Buckeyes can now count on Michigan, No. 4, and on the roads, against the 12th state of Penn and Michigan. Oklahoma's best win is that of the 13th WVU on Friday, plus the victory over the No. 25 Iowa State. Oklahoma has a better loss than Ohio State. The Sooners have lost to No. 14 Texas earlier this season, 48-45, and will have the opportunity to avenge this loss at the Big 12 Match.

The CFP selection committee will have a lot to look at, but I think the benefit is going to the state of Ohio right now if the final vote is between the two. The quality of Buckeyes' victories, and in particular the dominance of Michigan, overcomes the miserable nature of their defeat.

That's why I have Ohio State on Oklahoma in number 4 of my new bowl screenings yet. Note that things could change after the championship games, when Oklahoma will play a better opponent than Ohio State. The Buckeyes will face No. 19 Northwestern for the Big Ten title. Our Lady will also sit at home and the committee will have to decide to move a team – from the Ohio State or Oklahoma – with a loss and a 13th data point on the Irish in the final standings.
