We know how good Michigan Washington Texas and Alabama, the four playoff teams, were that year.
FSU Georgia Ohio State and Oregon lost a combined two regular season games that entire season. (Those two losses were: Oregon losing by 3 @ Washington. Ohio State losing by 6 @ Michigan.) Both Washington and Michigan played for the national title.
Crazy how none of FSU Ohio State Oregon or Georgia made the playoff that season. Can you think of a year where the best 8 teams were as good as the 8 teams here?
