I understand a lot of people are against this but I thought the media told me the point of the 4 team playoff was to get the 4 best teams in. Why don't we let Vegas decide instead of an inept committee.
All year lines makes would have had tcu power ranking outside the top 4.
Tcu had a special season that honestly will probably allow some of them a chance in the nfl who never would have gotten it before. Duggan was a Heisman finalist and prior to this year he was a 2+ year starter barely above .500
The public wanted to believe in the underdog but we got the game we deserved when you let a team in that doesn't deserve it.
College football likes to claim the playoff provides incentive to schedule harder non conference games. I don't agree with that. 99.9 percent of the world still doesn't know how a "good loss" compares to a cupcake win. But the committee will never have the balls to put a 2 or 3 loss team over a zero or 1 loss team even if they are better and honestly would anyone want that. So the incentive to play cupcakes will always be there. Look at Michigan. Joke of a schedule get the 2 seed because win loss record said they should have.
