What's the point of the championship game again? If a conference can determine a champion without a game and a team can backfire their way into a NC twice, then why have one?
Explain how this is relevant to this season. The SEC champion is in the national championship game.

So is a team that backed their way in. I feel like playoff should be expanded and do away with conference championship games

With no conference championship, Auburn wins the conference and is #2 in the playoff.
The larger point is that talking heads want the conference championship to matter in the rankings, but the committee has basically said it doesn't matter--based on the last two years. Alabama avoids an extra game and rests. Auburn plays a game, gets embarrassed and then has to play UCF. So, why have the extra game, when: 1) a conference can decide who the champion is and 2) the committee isn't exactly rewarding all champions?
