Although the pick has already been made, strength of schedule went to OSU. Iowa was the difference.

Not according to ESPN stats and information, it's on their website. Just quoting ESPN. Alabama had a better strength of schedule. Splitting atoms.

Just a quick question for those living in Manhattan. What neighborhoods in Manhattan gives the easiest commute via train to both JFK and LGA? I was told to check out Upper East Side but was hoping to narrow it down a bit as being close to the subway line can make or break a commute. Thanks for any help! Feel free to PM if its easier.

P.S. Manhattan is a must for me for personal reasons. Thanks for any insight!

Are you sure? SBnation shows OSU's schedule significantly stronger than 'Bama's as does this random site that happened to be the 1st hit I got :)

Look at it this way, Alabama is a 2 pt. favorite over Clemson. OSU would have been a 10 pt. dog.

I don't disagree with the committee picking Alabama over OSU.

I disagree with your claim that Alabama had a tougher schedule and cited 2 references. There is no ESPN reference that I can find that claims Alabama had a tougher schedule. Alabama has a higher FPI ranking than OSU which you may be confusing with strength of schedule, but that is a different metric.

I'd post it if I knew how. Titled "why the selection committee got it right"

Strength of Record, not strength of schedule. Again, different things :).

BTW, here you go: Why the College Football Playoff selection committee gave Alabama Crimson Tide the nod over Ohio State Buckeyes

Feats of Strength, it's in a couple weeks. Merry Festivus!

Wait, Delta pilots make enough to live in Manhattan?
