How the frick can anyone say this with a straight face when 2 schools got in the Playoff without even playing in a conference championship game? Hell, 1 of them got in OVER THE CONFERENCE CHAMPION!
In the case of 2017 Alabama, had Wisconsin won the B1G CG, they would have gotten the 4 seed. Some even thought Ohio State might even with 2 losses. The year Ohio State got in they had 3 wins over top 10 teams and lost to Penn St on a fluky play, plus PSU had 2 really bad loses. The last 3 SECCG the loser was knocked out and in 2014 Ohio St made because of their dominating win.
The real problem i have with 8, is you could wind up when a team that doesn't have to play in it gets in over a team that loses one. If you go to 8 you should either eliminate them or not allow teams that finish 2nd in a division into the playoff.

I don't disagree or dispute any of that, but that's not the point. The point is the argument that the Conference Title games are play-in games is asinine.
