re: SEC Teams in the 12 team playoffs from the BCS era to present

I one hundred percent agree. People forget that people are in charge of this system, it’s not objective. The committee used to just fudge the top 5/10 to make the postseason work out how they wanted to. Now that it’s top 12 they’re going to adjust how they rank everyone, they’ll do their best to never put more than 3 SEC teams in the top 12 at any given point (besides early in the season when it doesn’t matter) and they’ll be fudging the whole top 25. This whole thing is a farce created so the rich get richer with no foresight as to the consequences on the sport as.a whole. And people are just eating it right out of their hand.

I hear a lot of “well every other sport does a playoff!! It’s time!!” CFB is the pinnacle of college sports in terms of ratings. Why change it to be more like the ones that suck? And I believe NDSU has won 8 out of the last 10 playoffs, so any parity argument is dumb.
