The first, is that choosing 16 teams is inherently subjective. The 17th team will always complain. Based on my idea, no one can complain because its there fault they didnt win their conference.
Thats still much much better then the #3 team being left out. If your 17th your chances of winning the playoff is very very low

I agree that this point is the weakness of this idea. But Florida didnt win its conference, and thus is not better than Alabama. So, if we already know that Florida is not better than Alabama, then why should they get a chance to be National Champs. Do we know that Alabama is better than Texas or Cincy or TCU, or even Oregon? The answer I think is no.
Every system has a weakness, including the current system. I concede this weakness, which is glaring in the case of Florida. In previous years there are 2 or sometimes 3 teams that are clearly good but didnt win there conference. In my system they simply blew their chance. The SEC has a very strong method for choosing a champion, and I defer to that method.
