So who should be the 4 playoff teams IYO? Michigan/Washington/FSU and...??


And BAMA.

Texas had the weaker resume. I'm basically going with the BCS eval of the top 4. I think SOR and SOS should've factored heavily into things this year because this was a year where good teams were going to be left out. By that measure Texas is out and BAMA is in alongside Mich/Wash and FSU.

I think that's the fairest and least political way of determining things.

**That said, the AP skews things a lot because AP voters think SOR matters not and is skewed by voters who refuse to acknowledge that a Sunbelt schedule isn't the same as a SEC schedule. A future formula would work on eliminating even more of that human/voter bias that is still baked into the BCS model and a top 4 would include different teams and likely ding a team like Michigan because they played no one beyond OSU but we don't have that model yet.
