Right, but that's not a committee problem. That's a conference problem. If you play a game, that's going to count.
The Big 12 went out and added that CCG and so far, the extra game has helped. But it's a two-edged sword for sure.

Im not saying you are wrong, but it needs to be rectified going forward someway

Lets assume pac 12 and big 12 champs both have 2 losses

I would for one be completely fine with Bama making it.


Now, LSU has to play an extra game for being the better team. It is just ludicrous for this to be the process

Imagine if in the NFL the division champs didnt get the byes, but the wildcard teams did. That essentially has happened and can continue to happen in college football

Actually 2017 Wisky is the better example


They were 12-0 after the regular season and in the top 4

Bama was 11-1 and not in the top 4


Wisky then is forced to play an extra game, dropping them below bama. That is so illogical its hard to type

It's more like you get a BYE, but decent chance you don't make it or you play a game and control your faith. So there's still some incentive.

Now for LSU specifically this year, I think the only scenario they get left out in a 12-1 non conf champ scenario is if Baylor goes 13-0. Assuming they don't start trending down starting this week culminating with a bad loss in the CCG.
