The options for No. 2 were TCU, Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama and Tennessee.
The ballot was submitted to the Associated Press on Monday night …Georgia was the easiest call possible after poleaxing TCU 65-7 in the championship game to claim its second consecutive national title.There were no good options:
