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.


Collusion for who exactly

They all come from fairly diverse backgrounds. Id argue the CFP poll is way better than the coaches poll. WTF did Bama do last week to be reward a #3 ranking in the coaches poll last week.

I don't follow it that closely but I can tell you this, if you're trying to convince me that 12 powerful people in a room secretly deciding who makes it in the playoffs with minimal personal accountability is better than an open and transparent computer generated algorithm/ranking system you're not going to do it...
