To limit any future “_______ didn’t deserve a playoff spot” threads, keep all relative matters here
Here’s my take on the CFP
12 Teams:
- SEC Champion (Bye)
- Big Ten Champion (Bye)
- Big 12 Champion (Bye)
- ACC Champion (Bye)
- Highest Ranked G5 Champion
- 7 Highest Ranked At-Larges
At-large determination in order of significance:
- Strength of schedule
- Quality wins
- Unranked losses
- Quality losses
**an unranked loss does more damage than a quality win, but not by a huge margin. For example, if Alabama only lost to Vanderbilt (6-6) and won against Oklahoma (6-6), then a is in. 2 losses to unranked 6-6 teams is unacceptable.
Do we go back to the computer rankings like we had in the BCS era? We have net rankings in basketball. Do we have that in football too?
We should have never gone away from the computers. Just tweaked the data that it was being provided.
The problem with any CFP Format lies with the committee trying to get the “Best Teams” as opposed to the most “Deserving Teams”. It’s too subjective and a very difficult tasks.
I’d rather go back to the BCS Formula picking the At large teams.
have a true seeding 1-12. Boise a 3 seed and Arizona State a 4 seed is a joke
