If TCU pulls off an upset against Oklahoma, I don't see how TCU can be included in the Final Four, instead of Alabama.

TCU has lost two games, Alabama just one.

Alabama lost to Auburn, which is ranked #2.

TCU lost to Iowa State, which is 7-5, and is unranked.

See Ohio State losing to Va Tech (6-6) making the playoffs the year TCU only lost one game to another top 10 team (Baylor) near the end of the 4th quarter, on the road.

The committee will make justifications for who they want regardless of who may or may not deserve it. Heck they mOay even put tOSU in it again and they lost big time to OU at their place and were a$$ pounded by Iowa (That’s 2 losses).

A TCU win would give the team a big 5 conference championship. Bama couldn't even make it into the conference championship for a shot at second best.

Bama's like Georgia. They choked when it was all on the line. Unlike Georgia, Bama doesn't get a second shot (for all the good that will do the Dawgs.)

You can’t just look at losses. You need to look at wins too.

TCU would have beaten Oklahoma St. (19) and Oklahoma (3).

Alabama’s only good wins are LSU (17) and Miss St. (23) and Fresno St (25)
