The "choosers" just knew that Auburn, after beating Bama AND Georgia would wipe the floor with UCF.
The Peach Bowl selects who plays in the Peach Bowl. The College Football Playoff Committee selects who plays in the playoffs.
You managed to use the transitive property in a way I have never seen used before. It's impressive.

This is an archived post of the Massey Composite rankings. In this post, you can see 119 different rankings, aggregated together. There is no bias here. It is a collection of algorithms. UCF was ranked 9th. It's not even like UCF was 5th or 6th. They were 9th according to the computers, a full 3 spots higher than the committee.
UCF was in the conversation. It was just a very short conversation.
"Hey what about UCF?"
"Oh that team that went unbeaten after going 0-12 just a few years ago?"
"YEAH, THEM!"
"Don't they play in the American Conference with Tulane and UConn?"

Not a lot different than what I said in my first post in this thread.
This is why the shite system will stay a shite system and the "under 50 hasn't won a championship" mantra will remain intact.
How did the computers, Massey, the algorithms and the "choosers" miss the fact that EVERY team in the playoffs, including the national champion, would lose to Auburn or a team that lost to Auburn - Who Lost to UCF.
Sounds like the system is not too "sound" to me. Team A beats Team B on the same day as the college football playoffs. Team C and Team D play for the national championship. Team B had beaten both of those teams and lost to Team A. But Team A does not get to play in the playoffs.
If you build an org chart for the six teams mentioned above, UCF would be in the box at the very top. Everyone else would not only be below UCF but below Auburn.
Clemson and OU would be at the very bottom. At the very least UCF should have replaced one of those teams. I don't care what the computers or 24/7 say.
