I just don't understand how they come up with invitees.

By the number of votes they get on the Heisman ballots. A voter is free to vote for any player for any NCAA team (including FCS and Div II and III) that is enrolled in school.

See here for a list of 180 of the voters who have publically said how they voted. Now, as to who they vote to New York, its got to be some method where 3 and 4 aren't even close so they only invited the top 3.
