re: Committee should be disbanded

So Penn State should be in the playoff because they're beating the same team Alabama beat 52-6 by a score of 42-35?

Here's an idea..don't lose by 39 points versus a conference opponent. USC lost 3 games this year...let Ohio State play them and I guarantee you they aren't losing 31-0.

Clemson and Bama clearly the 2 best teams this year..3/4 were irrelevant

If you "honor" the head to head, then you have to ignore the fact that PENN STATE LOST MORE GAMES

This is such a weak argument. If you ignore the head-to-head and conference championships, then why even keep score or have conference championsbips?

Yeah I wasn't going thru all that garbage either.

1. A lot more weight should be placed on a conference champion. There has to be a real incentive to win your conference. It should almost be an automatic qualification should a team like PSU win the head to head and beat the team that is in consideration.

Three of the four CFP participants were conference champions. Eleven of twelve have been since the inception of the CFP. Why are people acting like the committee places only minuscule importance on that factor? Hell, lots of people were arguing that it should have been OSU and PSU, leaving out the PAC champion. It's just odd how so many people see one example of a non-CC participant and completely forget that the statistics do not support the hysteria.

You won't find much disagreement about that here.

"Toughest division in football" lost all its bowl games except Wisky, 'Minnesota, and penn state

Worked ok for Bama getting in title game over Oklahoma State

Yes, I wholeheartedly agree. A 10-3 Clemson team that won the ACC should have been in the BCS National Championship Game over Bama in 2011. After all, they won their conference while Bama did not.

---

Yeah we would've played Clemson, bro.

Because the Committee has said Head to Head and Conference titles do not weigh unless it is close...They determined OSU was "A Cut Above" at least a full month before the end of the of the season and could not walk back that stance or look like horses assess...which they look like anyway

That's not a particularly compelling argument, given that the committee has actually made a point of dropping teams that win. Whatever else you can say about them, it's hard to make a convincing argument they don't do re-rankings on a week-to-week basis rather than stay the course.

And, once again, 11 of 12 have been conference champions. I'd ask you for references to the claim that the committee ever actually said any such thing about the h-to-h and CCs -- Long has repeatedly said quite the opposite -- but references aren't necessary when the actual results are 11 of 12.
