You have to expand the field. Today we’re all victims of recency bias, which has plagued CFB for a long long time. Bama is probably the best team, but how many times did they almost blow it during the season? They milked it to a big game and then showed out. Does that absolve them of all their lackluster play? It certainly does in our minds, but a true tournament bracket shouldn’t think that way. Who is the best team this year is a genuine question that should be answered on the field, not by pollsters.

Lackluster play? Winning is winning. If Miss St. was 13-0 right after winning every game by 1 point, MSU fans would be wearing cowbells around their necks 24/7. Style points and blowouts don’t matter when you’re playing in the best conference. Expanding the playoffs is stupid. What should be done is forcing every team to play at least 2-3 non-conference power 5 teams so there are some ways to relate the conference strengths.

Go to 12. I want in every year. Seven years out of eight doesn't cut it.
