The playoff is the first system we've had that didn't rely on the wire service polls.
Instead, it relies on the subjective evaluations of a handful of committee members to choose 4 teams that get to play for the "title."
It's all about hype and TV revenue.
Unless CFB goes to a NFL-type playoff, with playoff spots based strictly on objective win-loss criteria, it's still a subjective MNC.

Which is impossible given the number of eligible teams and the limited number of games that can be played. You could take only conference champs, but you'd have to eliminate a conference first so that we only have 4 available. Otherwise we're still applying subjective criteria.
