Two more uncompetitive CFP Semis

There seem to be 3 conclusions one can reach. A) the committee is failing to pick the 4 most competitive teams. (Obvious this year IMO). B) There are not 4 teams that are good enough to compete at the highest level, but at most 3 (in which case adding teams would not prove a solution.) C) Some combination of A and B.
I personally think it is A. But I don’t think there is an easy solution either. Too many incentives to put teams in that don’t belong/do not have a complete team.

We've had what, two competitive games out of 10 now? It's pretty bad. I don't know what the answer is. I feel like another round of games is going to result in even shittier first round matchups, but could lead to more competitive semifinal games.

A playoff worthy team doesn’t lose to Ed Orgeron by 20 points

The committee refuses to put the 4 best teams in the playoff because sensitive little pussy who play touch football will cry and shite their pants when presented with reality.

But Michigan should definitely get a shot

OU vs UGA was competitive
OU vs bam was competitive
ND was the wrong choice. Would have liked to see OU vs UGA and bama vs Clemson this year.

2 teams is the right # more often than 4 has been.
People wanting bigger playoffs are crazy.
You can watch Michigan and UCF get blown out too!

3 out of 4 NC games have been good.
2 out of 10 playoff semifinals have been good.
At the minimum the playoff is giving us a good NC game.

Make the playoff all SEC. The talent gap between the SEC and the rest of the country is real big. Real real big. And only getting bigger. Even A&M is getting talent.

It's B.
And yet some fans want to water this shite down even more by adding more teams...and subsequently, more blowouts.

The best two teams are clearly Alabama and Clemson.
#3 some distance behind is Georgia.
#4 and 5, in some order even farther back, are Oklahoma and Ohio State.
After that there's a mass of mediocrity, all of whom would be raped by Alabama and Clemson in any 1-8/2-7 matchups.

Ohio State would have put up more fight than either ND or OU, but still would have lost.

D) Kind of like B, but the problem this year is that two teams were dominant. You can pick a legit top 4 but that doesn't narrow any gaps. Outside of UGA, who could stay on the field with Bama this year? Pretty much anyone you picked for the 4 slot would have been beaten just as bad, if not worse. Probably worse. Arguing for Clemson is a little iffier, but they still have loads of talent.

Georgia didn’t make the cut so get over it

For the first time since the playoff I didn’t watch a single play of the semifinals. And I don’t have any interest in Clemson/Bama either, so doubt I watch any of it. College football is in need of an overhaul or it is going to be in some serious trouble outside of the individual fan bases. Of course going back to how things used to be may be the best thing for the game.
