When picking your 4 team playoff are you picking the top 4 teams in the BCS ranking? Because, if so, those wouldn't be the matchups.

The committee has already came out and stated they aren't putting the top 4 teams in. More likely the top 4 conference champions.

In most cases the top 4 most likely wont be from the same conference but it does happen every now and then.

Yes. But it would suck arse if 9-3 Big 12 champion gets in over 11-1 SEC West Runner up.

This

Plus the formula has been changed multiple times in response to outrage over discrepancies between it and the human opinion polls. So you really can't honestly compare the results from year to year unless you have someone go back and recalculate all of the BCS seasons using a single BCS formula.
