Boils down to this: What is more fair: 1.) 1 loss LSU conference loser in 4th place over 12-1 Oregon conference champ Or 2.) 8 team playoff where LSU has to rematch 3 teams it beat or played already in the regular season: Georgia, Alabama, and maybe Florida/Auburn. The difference between 12-1 LSU and 12-1 Oregon is razor thin. 4 quality wins vs 1, conference champ vs not, and Oregon barely losing to Auburn across the country and LSU barely winning over Auburn at home. On the flip side, its much more egregious that LSU would have to rematch 2+ top 8 teams it already beat. That makes the regular season worthless for tough conferences.
So in other words you are scared for LSU rematch against other teams and might lose?

No, I am saying the cost of LSU and Georgia both going if Georgia wins out is less than the cost of LSU rematching 2 other top 8 teams it already beat. To me that makes the regular season feel less impactful. Thats why college football is unique and these rivalries mean more.
