I am happy they created a playoff, but it was flawed when created.
Four spots and five conference champions. It will always leave a conference feeling screwed. This year, it leaves two feeling screwed.
It did not help that they put Ohio State in last year and then they got humiliated.
I still hope one day we get to six teams, just because then you could make sure conference champs matter and still leave room for either a great non-conf champ or a non-power five team.
But when it comes to Alabama, some try to remove the context.
Alabama may not have much in quality wins, but they only lost one game. And there is no other team outside of the top three that look as good as Alabama does.
IF Ohio State had not been beaten so handily by Iowa, they might have had a better argument, but they just never looked as good as Alabama.
