Lets be honest nobody wants to see Ohio State get crushed in the national championship after barely escaping their super easy schedule. Atleast FSU dominated their schedule they need to face a battle tested Auburn team which would be a epic game.

Will the start doing that in college?
unfortunately, most fans don't really care all that much about the Iron Bowl. it was the afternoon game while Missouri/A&M was the highlight night game because Johnny Football pulls more viewers than Nick Saban. for all those viewers, several playoff games with a win-or-go-home result between the best teams in the country are much more exciting and entertaining overall than a handful of "traditional" rivalry games only a fraction of college football fans care about.
i'm fairly agnostic in college football with a soft spot for Nebraska, so i have no deep attachments to any traditional matchup. for me (and, i suspect, most others), the very small significance sacrificed during those rivalry games is gladly given in exchange for playoff games and a real national champion.

Auburn then get lucky that two Georgia defenders wanted to catch an overthrown ball instead of knocking it down. Then 'Ol Nicky wouldn't kick a FG at the 13 yard line but tries a 57 yarder and doesn't cover the return. They even beat Miss St on a last second pass.

Number one rated game of the year was the Bama/A&M rematch, of course. I don't know(nor care enough to look), but I doubt Mizz/A&M was even the second highest rated game of the day.
*Edit:Got bored enough to look. Mizz/A&M was the distant third rated game of the day(3.6) behind Bama/Auburn(8.6) and Mich/OSU(6.4)

#1 FSU schedule is weaker than Ohio States, a win is a win. I, nor the voters, care much about style points.

Ohio has played 2 ranked teams. #16 NW (1-7 in conf play), who was obviously WAY over ranked, and #23 Wisky. FSU won @ #3 Clemson 51-14, #7 Miami 41-14, rolled the #25 terps 63-0, and is playing #20 Duke for conf championship.
