So? the whole playoff was designed this way to make sure two SEC teams don't get in.

The sooner people realize this, the better. 2011 is the ONLY year in the BCS that would of had two SEC teams in with a playoff committee, and even that would have not been guaranteed. If you had kept the BCS rankings and taken the top 4, no selection committee, you would of had two teams from the same conference in:
2001 (Colorado and Nebraska)
2004 (Oklahoma and Texas)
2005 (Penn State and Ohio State)
2006 (Ohio State and Michigan; LSU and Florida)
2008 (Oklahoma and Texas; Florida and Alabama)
2010 (Oregon and Stanford)
2011 (LSU and Alabama)
2012 (Alabama and Florida)
2013 (Auburn and Alabama)

this. I don't understand why people continue to think the playoffs are about finding the best team in the nation. the playoffs are about selecting the "right" 4 teams and let them determine a winner on the field.

The "right" 4 teams will be determined by a committee, many of whom don't know shite about football. this will be political at best. the "right" 4 teams will represent as many different regions of the country as possible and will make the TV sponsors happy.

college football ain't ivy league any more; it's ALL about money.
