One loss Texas or Mich wouldn't get in over 1 loss Bama.

The only way Bama is left out is if they lose 2 games. 1 loss Bama would even get in over undefeated ND.
I disagree.

I think folks are underestimating Bama Fatigue. The Cmte will look for opportunities to keep Bama out. And those 1-loss teams that are conf champs would fit the bill.

*Especially* given Bama's weak schedule. They would have lost to the only ranked team on their schedule at season's end. (Assuming LSU wins out and a&m does what a&m does.)

The idea of the CFP is to get the best teams in the playoffs. The fact that Bama backed into the CFP last year and then won the title will possibly give the committee an avenue to do it again I'm afraid.

However, if that bumps out a 1 loss Big 10 or Big 12 then controversy ensues and things are no better than the BCS scenario.

If this happens it could be the 1st step to going to 8 team playoff.
