It won’t get watered down. If anything it will improve as more national championship shots will be on the line late in the season.
I don't understand why people don't get this. Every team in the hunt for their conference title will have something to play for late instead of what we have now where if you aren't a blue blood you 100% must go undefeated. Does anyone really think a 12-1 Iowa State gets into the playoff over an 11-2 UGA this year? I sure don't.
Right now what we have is a beauty pageant that really only invites blue bloods and maybe if you're lucky a few purples. Teams like Vandy, Wash St, Pitt, Purdue, Baylor etc would never be given the benefit of the doubt over a blue blood like Alabama, Ohio State, OU, USC, or Florida State.
The committee says they want to pick the best teams but then they turn around and say well your schedule is this, that and the other so you aren't deserving. They've created a system where at the end of the day your logo is more important. It doesn't matter if a team might actually be the best if they don't have enough blue blood skins on the wall regardless of if those BB teams were actually good or not that season. Hell, odds are if a non traditional power wins their conference it will be held against them b/c "Oh well that conference is down this year b/c Ole Miss/Oregon State/Wake Forest/Indiana won it so we should give that 4th slot to an SEC or Big 10 power that has two losses. They just feel better to us."
