Because the playoff is four teams, not two, and two games not one. It doesn't look good when *the* marquis bowls are prison rapes. And keep in mind OSU is only there because the Big Ten changed its own rules.

So really, the playoff committee only correctly picked 'Bama, which really doesn't require Amazing Kreskin levels of foresight.

You are falling for the playoff trap.

100% of the reason for a 4 team playoff was to make certain that the "2 best teams" make it into the playoff.

It has nothing to do with the 4 best teams.

If you want the 4 best teams in college football, then you invite 8 into the playoff.

If you want the 8 best teams in college football, then you invite 16.

This cycle of uninformed bitching about the selection process will never stop until someone remembers what the goal is (to make sure we have the best 2 teams included unlike what the BCS provided us).

Who gives a shite so long as the 2 best teams are included. Sometimes, it is the 3 or 4 seed doing the raping.
