00:00Nine biggest snubs in college football playoff history.

00:052014 Baylor Bears.

00:07An 11-1 season, three top 20 wins, and still the Bears finished fifth.

00:12Ohio State's 59-0 Big Ten title win pushed them past Baylor,

00:17a choice vindicated when the Buckeyes went on to win it all.

00:212014 TCU Horned Frogs.

00:25Ranked third before the final week, TCU didn't even play and still dropped to sixth.

00:30Their lone loss was a 61-58 shootout to Baylor,

00:33but Ohio State's championship game route sealed their fate.

00:392016 Penn State.

00:41Winners of the Big Ten and victors over Ohio State,

00:45the Nittany Lions roared into the playoff conversation,

00:48only to watch the team they beat get in instead,

00:50and promptly lose 31-0 in the semifinal.

00:552017 Ohio State Buckeyes.

00:58Fresh off a Big Ten title,

01:01Ohio State's resume boasted wins over Penn State, Wisconsin, and Michigan State.

01:05But a crushing loss to Iowa loomed too large, opening the door for Alabama.

01:112017 Wisconsin Badgers.

01:14A perfect regular season came undone with a narrow Big Ten title loss to Ohio State.

01:19Even as Alabama skipped the SEC championship,

01:22the Tide were chosen and went on to win the national title.

01:282017 UCF Knights.

01:30A flawless 12-0 run capped by wins over ranked South Florida and Memphis wasn't enough.

01:40after beating Auburn in the Peach Bowl.

01:422018 Ohio State Buckeyes.

02:01In a COVID-shortened SEC season, the Aggies went 8-1.

02:05But six-win Ohio State and a one-loss Notre Dame still got the nod,

02:09leaving Texas A&M wondering what more they could have done.

02:132023 Florida State Seminoles.

02:17An undefeated season, an ACC title, and wins over LSU, Clemson, and Miami.

02:22All undone by one factor.
