re: Would you prefer the selection committee have concrete qualifiers or not?

Been kinda quiet in regards to what criteria will be used to select play off teams, unless I missed some coverage. Which do you think would best serve college football... having set-in-stone qualifications that dictate what a team must do to make it, or allowing this panel completely subjective choice over who goes?

The best thing to serve college football is a ton of controversy and people getting mad. Make no mistake. The only reason that a playoff exists in the first place is that the second most powerful commish(Jim Delaney) hated the rematch Bama didn't deserve to be in. He was adamant about not having a playoff til he started to see the SEC getting all the favoritism(mostly deserved until it started giving the gumps things like a Heisman and a rematch).

There is a committee in place now to prevent this. Those hoping for a multi-SEC playoff will be shitting themselves because they are going to be adamant about not having more than one team in there. The BEST thing for college football is for continued chaos. Another regional catastrophe like the undeserved rematch. At that point, hopefully closer to the end of the 12 year contract(much like the undeserved rematch happening when the BCS contract was up for renegotiated was perfect), we can get autobids for power 5 conference champs, highest ranked conference champ among the little 5, and 2 at large bids(Independents will receive an autobid if ranked higher than some preset criteria).
