Agree USC wins Pac12 championship they are in. That will be their 5th top 25 opponent of the season, making it 3 ranked opponents in row.
LSU and Clemson are now done.
TCU or USC loses championship game, Ohio St could slip right back in there. They would definitely leap over 2 loss USC. But would the committee put them ahead of a 1 loss TCU...maybe. Ohio St got beat pretty handily, not a close game at all. If TCU losses but only by a few points or in overtime, I could see them still ranked ahead of Ohio St.
