   12 will still have controversy, but...

   Assuming we had a 12-team playoff this year and the same CFP rankings existed,   
   Oklahoma would have been really ticked off for not getting in (probably are   
   about not making NY6 as well, but that's not big news).   
      
   They had a neutral win over a team in the playoffs, whereas Penn State,   
   Mississippi, and Missouri had no wins over teams in the playoffs.  The Big Ten   
   gets 3 teams, the SEC gets 4 teams, and the Big 12 only gets 1?  I think   
   Oklahoma would have had a    
   legitimate gripe.   
      
   But ... I think with 12, no team left out will have a claim that they should   
   have been considered for #1.  I'm not sure we have that this year.
