Committee got it right, much rather them mirror the computers than the human polls.


Oh and the BCS Computers apparently have SEC Bias too.

Agreed. Still a lot of football to be played, including head to head matchups between these top teams. Should be interesting.

What is still shocking to me is where everyone has Bama on resume to date. They have a "worse" loss than ND, and don't really have a better win (WVU/Stanford are probably close).

If Bama wins out, hell yea they are a top 2 seed. But after all the explanations of why this team is ranked highly, this team is ranked lower, not one word about how Bama has no good wins, a good loss, but they are sitting at 6

Statistically, their SOS is much higher than ND's.

And objectively (without taking last year into account), their loss isn't any better than Bama's loss to Ole Miss.

I still think 4 teams is not enough. 6 would be OK (top 2 seeds get byes), but 8 would be perfect. 5 automatic qualifiers (major conf champs) plus 3 at-large determined by computers. Seedings based on computer rankings as well. If they wanted to keep a committee to select at-large qualifiers, fine. But 4 teams is just not enough IMO.
