Ice skating would've been more entertaining than that ACC title game.

College football has always had a busted post season, at least it’s improving next season

Cant wait for next year when a #22 ranked bama team gets in the playoff. Who cares how many losses they have

So... college basketball?
College baseball?
Literally any collegiate sport determined by a tournament?

Agree should have used the computers. We'd have been the 3 seed.

That won't be next year, and it will be a long wait before that happens.

I do wish they'd put a retired book maker and a couple of analytics gurus on the committee if you aren't going to add back a computer model as part of the equation

Your criteria for a "great game" leaves a lot to be desired.

The Louisville QB looked absolutely scared to death to do anything by the end of the game.

Just remember this: the camel was created by a committee.

Like others have pointed out, the old pure computer BCS system - people disliked it.

So now we get the human subjective process and in that process, an SEC Champ Alabama will NEVER be left out of a 4 or more playoff team tournament.

PERIOD.

The committee doesnt exist to pick the "best 4" or "most deserving 4". Thats just the bullshite lines they trot out to fool the idiot fans that power the sport.

They exist to pick the "most profitable 4". Period.

Time for a straight divisions into a playoff like the NFL with the NCAA over the refs and not conferences.
