re: College Football Playoff using top 4 Conference winners: BCS era

2006 USC was really good, that loss to UCLA was a real head scratcher, the type of thing Miles haters would never stop bitching about if Les had lost a game like that

2007 Ark was a lot better than that UCLA team and 2007 LSU was the best team that year, just no where near as good as the best team from a lot of other years.
