Take - despite the flaws, CFB does the best job of crowing the best team the champion

Only the nba compares
Nfl is close but it’s all about getting hot late
Mlb playoffs are silly now
Expansion teams win it all in nhl

The NFL’s playoff system is vastly superior to CFB’s

Given that there are 130 college teams with a variety of different conferences & schedules, theres just no easy way to do it. I'm cautiously optimistic about the 12 team format tho.

Disagree. Some of the years it’s obvious and the championship is a formality, I don’t give them any benefit for that.
All of the pro leagues have very established rules and guidelines that are about objective as possible. It’s a system, any you live by the system.
The problem with the CFP is that it is a playoff system- it will allow for unexpected results like any other tournament. However, it’s only 4 teams, and the way it is picked is behind a curtain by humans. It has caused the entire landscape of college football to be very top heavy, just look at the results each year. 12 teams will make this worse. Very top heavy.

The problem with crowning the “best” team champion is the beauty in sports used to be the best team doesn’t always win.
But now with this complete fricking idiocy we’ve got, the best team only wins.
And frankly, if we’re going to only allow whoever the playoff committee deems as the “best” team then why don’t we just stop with this sham of a regular season?

College basketball does it best.

European soccer actually has the best way to crown a champion. 20 teams per league, 38 games in a season. Every team plays every other team twice (1 home, 1 away). At the end of the season, whoever has the best record is the champion.

Has there ever been a competitive sport where you can win every game you play and not be a champion?

An old adage, “Not the best team, but the team that is playing best”. The committee’s job is to pick the best four teams TODAY. They got it right.

Nope. As far as football goes, FCS does it best.

College baseball?
A bad team with a good pitcher can pull off 1 win but they won't survive a double elimination tournament.

World Cup and Stanley Cup both do better.

Who gives a shite? There is no rule in competitive sports that the best team should win. And it's actually what makes sports great. You can talk about it all day, but at the end of the day you get to settle it on the field.
I'm tired of this absurd narrative that CFB has been pushing. It's the only sport in the world that tries to claim this.
