The committee weekly TV theatrical is a clusterfrick

I hate how much emphasis they place on the dreaded "eye test", which is nothing more than an excuse to rank teams based on your biases and conveniently sidestepping criticism.

I don't get how people think Penn State is going to get in. They lost to Michigan 39 frickin points.

CU, PSU and Wisconsin all lost to Michigan by a combined 66 points.

My post from an earlier thread today:

This committee has set themselves up for failure-scrutiny when they come out weeks before final poll and list a top 4.

Let all the games be played, then list your top 4 and move on. Now they have Ohio State at #2 and the whole they didn't win conference stuff.

If they don't put Ohio State in the CFP, the committee is saying The Big 10 champion got 4-5 spots better than them in 1 week, ya right.

If there was no poll 6 weeks ago listing a top 4 or last weeks poll ultimately putting Ohio State St #2 then the committee could come out and say these are our teams for this years CFP. If Ohio St is in or not you will have less bitching.

So:
Committee STFU
Let all the games be played
Committee Meet
List teams after season
Profit ????

I think his point is that the playoff selected by committee is one big stupid "eye test" that was conceived in the wake of the '12 championship game which everybody outside the SEC hated. The committee is a big dog and pony show and the eye test is just code for quality control of the national championship game. The committee will emphasize different things every year depending on what serves them best.
