I'm just glad the polls don't have a thing to do with anything anymore

Of course polls have "something to do with it".

That's all the new system is... a new poll with a 4-team playoff attached.

And the new poll will have all the failings and biases of the old polls, just a different group of people doing them. As a matter of fact, considering the fact that they have removed the computers from the equation, the "new" poll is likely to be MORE susceptible to biases than the BCS process IMO.
