It makes as much sense as allowing teams from crappy conferences (as the Big Ten was this year) to be the best. The simple fact is that Florida could very well be better than Ohio State, there's plenty of good reasons to think they would win more often than they would lose if the two met on the field, and in light of this, it's unjustifiable to make arguments from arbitrary divisions of teams (which conferences ultimately are, from the standpoint of on-field performance) to say Ohio State should go and Florida shouldn't.

Very, very well said in this and your previous post.

Not trying to be mean to Moustache and others who share his mindset about winning your conference, but that mindset is terrible logically. According to their line of thinking, Kent State deserves a shot at a playoff before Florida too because they won their conference with an undefeated record. Nevermind the fact that Kent State lost by 33 points to the worst SEC team on Florida's schedule (Kentucky). Kent State won their conference and Florida didn't so tough luck Florida, congrats Kent State.
