re: SO we aren’t interested in putting the 4 BEST teams in the playoffs

It should be the 4 conference champions no matter win or loss. They deserve it, 100%. No conference should send 2 teams, they had their shot at it and if they loss in the championship, oh well. Dicking over teams who have done all that is necessary to be there is not right.

Another way of looking at it is maybe the CWS and NCAA Final four. Take a team or 2 who lost their division and couldn't win out, but you have 2-3 other teams who did, its not fair they get put in over them.

Now I know the # of games are completely different in these sports with the brackets, but what I'm saying is the principle. Take it for the principle only and football should be no different.
