Yep it's hysterical that they honestly thought a playoff committee consisting of human error and bias could better pick the 4 deserving playoff teams than the BCS formula.
Nevermind the technicality that computers also have the human error in them in that the programmers of the formula program into their formulas what they subjectively believe are the most important factors. But to the overall them of your post, you are right. It is very hard to try to wittle a handful of teams down to 4. That's why I have maintained for a while that we should have an 8 team playoff with the power 5 champs getting an auto bid and 3 wildcards. Sure 9th on down will be pissed they were not selected but with 8 teams you get more of a true champ than 4 or 2. Anything more than 8 dilutes the meaning of the regular season way too much.

I absolutely agree.

I say power 5 conference champs get in. One wildcard (from all other conferences)

Top 2 teams get a bye.


That's as far as I want it to ever go. Once you lose your conference, you should be eliminated. It's stupid you can be National Champ but not Conf Champ.
