The Playoff Committee modifies their criteria to justify the teams they want to be in the top 4. Quality loss, game management, injuries, etc. They will make sure the teams in the playoff represent all the top viewer markets. Advertising dollars drive the selection process.

Exactly

TV is the only reason a committee exists really. They could've easily just picked four teams with the BCS process. The committee is there to ensure good matchups and to put the bigger brands in if at all justifiable, and they've made their criteria very broad to make it so they can justify just about anything.

It also just gives ESPN something to show on Tuesday night.
