I actually think TCU should hve been in over Baylor and Ohio State. They had the better loss.

I honestly don’t remember much about TCU that year either, but I think quality wins are more important than quality losses.

Well you can have your opinion, and that is fine but you wanted me tto give you a year where there wass controversy over he teams that just missed out who were worthy, and I have clearly done that.

You will see that the playoff is going to expand no mater what you and I want anyway. Colleges get too much money from the government for them not to step in eventually if need be, just like Title IX.

The reason I think it will expand before that happens is all the opting out that top players have started doing for the bowl games. Most of these kids don't care about college football, they care about the NFL.

There are rarely more than 3 teams each year with a legit national title chance. However, I think 6 is a good compromise. Winner of each P5 conference gets in plus best G5 team. Use computers or committee to determine that. Seed them and playoff like the NFL. In this system, at least regular season games and winning your conference still mean something, and every faction is at least given a chance. Downside is some really good teams are left out, but that's sports and I'd rather it be determined on the field than by opinion.

That said, if you need an extra weekend to accommodate 6, you can expand to 8.
