Perhaps.
As a PSU alum saddened at their having lost two games by a total of four points, I also seem to recall some team from WI that was 12-0 at the end of the regular season.
The post-season seemed pre-ordained to be the ESPN Bowl, regardless.

(not to mention UCF's perfect seaon ;-)

We heard earlier about schedules. You mention UCF so I guess schedules don’t matter anymore. Wisconsin would have more than their one loss if they played a tougher schedule too.

Well, the interesting thing is seeing how players are reacting to the Big Ten and changing tide in college football. For 10 years Nick Saban had the number 1 recruiting class each and every year, thereby having incredible depth. That ended with the class of 2018.

1. Georgia
2. Ohio State
3. Texas
4. Penn State
5. Alabama

Things are going to start getting a lot more difficult for Saban as he will for the first time have to do more with less, particularly if this trend continues.

Would like to see the NCAA add four more teams to the playoffs. Take the top Eight and extend another week to the schedule.

No brainer.
