Message: [QUOTE="bpo57, post: 2441249, member: 1572"] I agree with your points about the 8 team playoff and the difficulty teams like UCF face but the "conference champion" argument drives me insane. Way too much leeway for disaster if that's the standard. Too many disparities between conferences and within conference (two divisions). You could get somebody winning the SEC East or B1G West that has two conference losses and one outside the conference yet somehow pulls off an upset in the conference championship game. That team does not deserve a bid with four teams and prolly not eight teams either. Plus what if two of the four best teams are in the same conference as was clearly the case this season? I want the four best teams in there. I actually think the Committee has done a solid job since the CFP was established. [/QUOTE]
