This will be horrible. Not because of Jeff along but the BCS formula was great at determining ranking because bit was made of hundreds of opinion and also objective criteria as we'll. this new thing will likely boil down to personal agendas, biased opinions and corruption. CFB is eating itself alive
To a degree, yes. But once this expands to 6 or 8 teams, it's clear the best team will be left standing. There is a marked drop off after the 5the team most years anyway.

Once they expand yes but they will still manipulate the rankings to keep an all sec national title game. In other words in 2011 I believe the rankings were correct but just drop. Bama to four so that LSU or Bama eliminates the other

I think that's the best solution. Expand it to 8 teams and let the best team at year's end win.
SEC is the strongest conference and would benefit most from an 8 team playoff.
When Spurrier was at Florida eons ago, he was an early passionate supporter of a playoff for this reason. Figured with a tough schedule (SEC plus Miami and FSU when they were both still powerhouses) that a playoff was Florida's best shot at a title.
I hated Florida and Spurrier (58-3 - Curley Hallman!) with a passion in the 90s but I've come to appreciate the OBC's insights and wit the older I get.
