I don't like the new playoff system

What's to hate so far?

Season ain't over

BCS was fine

Should just use BCS rankings not a committee

Should be the top four BCS teams...or eight or whatever...but a closed door committee is too opaque and reeks of collusion. Also group decisions lend themselves to riskier choices because there's a displacement of responsibility.

The argument that there will always be a team left out is stupid because those teams would never have had a shot at the championship anyway. Playoff is the best solution and you will love it once you see it. It's gonna expand after the huge success it will be this year.

A playoff system that guarantees LSU is playing in it is what we all want

This system is the best we've had so far. It's finally based on who you beat and who you lose to. Not the classic "eye ball" test.

BCS with 2 is not enough

16 is way too many

The BCS system and 4 teams would have been the way to go.

I,was always a big proponent of the BCS, but it was inherently flawed too. 2/3 of it was made up by humans, 1/2 of that--the coaches poll-- had infinitely more reason to be biased than the new committee. Besides the fact that none of them had time to watch all the other teams, because they were, you know, coaching their fricking own. Word was always that the assistant AD was filling out ballots anyway.

And the Harris voters were similar to the committee only less prestigious representatives with a much less transparent vote.

And even the computers--who,we all relied being the most objective and taking the human element out--did anything but. All those computers were totally different, based on subjective criteria that humans had deemed more or less important than other humans. Thats why you'd have some crazy 2'loss,team always inexplicably ranked higher than some undefeateds at certain points. One dude always had Pav 12 teams ranked higher based on their SOS because they played 9 conference games every year. So, even the computers had biases brought into their formulas by the biases that their creators had.

There is just absolutely no way to have an objective system with so many teams who play such different schedules. Human subjectivity will have to play a part. There's no way around it it. And I see no reason to shite on the committee before they frick up. I mean, Condelizza Rice is perhaps the most successful woman I the history of American politics. She is a serious lady who know doubt takes this--and every job she's ever had extremely seriously. But because she's a woman a you played high school football, you think you are somehow more qualified to make assessments on who is deserving of the playoff than her? Get fricking real. She is more qualified to do just about anything on this planet than 99.9999% of the tiny-dicked mysogynist trolls on this board

At the end of the season, when has anyone ever complained that the 16th ranked team was better than #1?

I liked the BCS. The playoff system is okay. I want to keep it at four teams, though.
