Sorry Farmer, just trying to gauge others thoughts on this playoff committee. Do you agree that one of the reasons for a playoff was to satisfy the public's desire to take out the subjectivity and settle things on the field? How does it get more objective than an actual result between two teams that played each other already?

That one game only makes up 1/12 or ~8% of the entire season. The WVU game also made up 1/12 of the entire season. TCU went 1-0 & BU went 0-1. To me the head to head matters little when you factor in common opponents where TCU has the edge. From there you look at non common opponents and a win over Minny tops a win over Buffalo. I'm am perfectly fine with TCU getting in. Teams should not be rewarded for scheduling Northwestern St, Buffalo and SMU.
