That's a terrible way to actually reward teams for their respective seasons. Alabama was the favorite against LSU, but LSU proved it was the better team.


Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought the CFP committee is tasked for picking the best 4 teams as they see it. Not rewarding teams for their respective seasons.

Yes and no. They're explicitly tasked with picking the best 4 teams, but they're also asked so weigh resumes as well.

A few years ago Alabama lost two games and Vegas still had them as the best team in the country from a betting standpoint, IIRC.

On the field results have to actually matter.
