They are setting the table to omit undefeated teams from weak conferences with weak schedules.

The criterion above gives them a lot of leeway to apply the eye test.

This. Lets say La Tech or Boise go undefeated, while Alabama, Oklahoma, Oregon and Fla St all have one loss.

Speaking along those lines, what do you suppose the conference pecking order is? Figure SEC is safely in, as is Pac 12. That's 2; what about the B1G, Big 12 and ACC? That totals 5 conference champs to consider for 4 slots. Before you arbitrarily drop the B1G to 5th, remember the pull they have behind closed doors; and as for the ACC- if Fla St is back long-term, you have to put them into the "safe" spot too.
