So, if I'm understanding the SEC Rant, the committee should not select the 4 "Best" teams

Instead, they should choose undefeated teams, regardless of SOS, etc.

What’s the best is all subjective, if you run the table in your power 5 conference you should be in the playoff. Don’t recognize it as a power conference if you’re gonna shaft them come playoff time. If an undefeated team in the ACC can’t get in over one loss teams then they are not a power conference so stop calling them that

Yes. They were all super on board with UCF claiming that national championship a few years ago, because “MUH UNDEFEATED!!1!”

Correct.

Now if LSU had been in Alabama’s shoes today, then the committee would have made a courageous decision in putting LSU in knowing the criticism that they would receive for doing so.

Playoffs are never about best team.

You may be new to playoffs if you think that is the case.

Nick Saban 2018 after the SECCG: "UGA is one of the 4 best teams in the country. But I can't vote them top 4 because they didn't deserve it. It isn't fair"

How many SEC teams should FSU have scheduled?
They already scheduled 2 of the Big 6 from the SEC.

Did they need 3? Because the SEC was down?

Well at least Alabama scheduled 2 OOC P5 opponents. Right?

How do we know who the 4 best teams are? Many nuts here think a team that all but lost to Auburn, lost to Texas, beat Arkansas by 3, and beat Texas A&M by 6 is one of the 4 best teams.

No, you're an idiot. The SEC rant is saying the games on the field matter and the best four teams includes the team that won all their games and their championship.

There needs to be a standard that is objective instead of a subjective “feels”. That’s what we are asking for.

Honestly the BCS was better than a committee that over emphasizes what it feels is best. Give me Michigan vs Washington instead of this mess.

They should abide by the criteria they proclaim to follow. Two of the factors are Head to Head Matchups, and Comparative Outcomes. Alabama lost to Texas at home by 10. FSU beat LSU by more than Alabama did. So is the criteria optional, or do some factors weigh more heavily than others? The committee owes an explanation for the inconsistency.

The teams that lost had a chance to go undefeated…but they failed. Close the book.

Years from now people will be thinking about this like they do 2004 Auburn, thinking
"man those FSU guys got hosed."

How do you determine best 4 teams? Eye test?

That’s proven to be very reliable over the years
