This is not, in any sense, an improvement over any other system.
If Clemson loses a close game, they will have a super high quality loss (something that none of these other teams have) and the same record as the winner.
If they lose in the title game, they'll have more quality wins.
You can't have 110 teams, 5 leagues, varying schedules and accurately find the 'best' team.
This is the reason I've always been against a 'playoff' because it solves nothing.
The beauty of college football was always that every game mattered. Now, you can lose to a Shit team in October and so long as the committee thinks you're good, it doesn't matter.
If you move to 4 conferences with 16 teams, championship games, normal bowl tie ins and then a final game, at least that makes sense.
This system is just as dumb as the BCS (probably worse) and definitely worse than the voting system.
Best poast I've read on this cluster fuck situation. The answer is either ...
1. 4 conferences, 16 teams, conf champ game (quarterfinal), winners advance. 2. Scrap it all and go back to traditional bowl system.
If Iowa wins their bowl game and Oklahoma wins the 'Natty', how the FUCK is Iowa not a co-national champion?
Iowa's ONE FUCKING LOSS came on a neutral field to one of the best teams in CFB in the last fucking seconds of the game. Oklahoma's one loss came to a shit team on a neutral field and they got beasted.
So, games in October don't matter? You're saying that a team should be punished more for losing a cunt-hair close game to fucking fired the fuck up Michigan State at a neutral site than losing to a shit tier Texas team in October?
It's literally the dumbest fucking thing ever.
Everyone who wants a playoff is blinded by the 'settle it on the field' gobbledy gook and is too fucking stupid to think it through.
Iowa left out? Sounds like you want an 8 team playoff.
I don't want any fucking playoff at all. It's so fucking dumb. Either do 4 16 team conferences or just fucking vote.
Decide the shit on the field ... but also decide the shit on the field in a manner that is all inclusive of the best teams and forget about trying to decide which 1 or 2 loss team is better than the other.

#1 would be awesome. It would be even better if it cut out one non conference game. I wish only one non BCS non conference game was allowed.
The match ups are fine, but if SOS actually mattered and wasn't some complicated formula that overrated SEC games, Sparty would be #1. Four wins over top 10-15 teams. Beat Michigan and Ohio State on the road.
*lost to Mike Riley.
Lost to the refs while playing Mike Riley, but sure.
Natl championship caliber teams don't put themselves in a position to lose to Mike fucking Riley due to refs.
*beat Michigan on pure stupidity by Harbaugh.
*beat Oregon with VAJ and a broken finger.
I like to downplay wins over top 10-15 teams. It's what I like to do. How many top 10-15 teams has Alabama beaten?

The Cuogs were in the top 20.
Fags like Jude vote on that shit.
Whatever you want to believe Throbber. Were Ohio State and Iowa bad wins too?
I like the idea of rewarding the teams that are playing the best by the end of the year. If the playoff was around in the Pete Carroll era, USC would have skull fucked the country for at least 4 titles.
The old system would have Alabama vs Clemson in the Sugar Bowl, Oklahoma vs Iowa in the Orang Bowl, Stanford vs MSU in the Rose Bowl and OSU vs ND in the Fiesta Bowl. And if Clemson won, they would be handed a poll title; if Alabama won, then the 1-loss teams would all be arguing. Probably better than the current system, and the conference seasons would be more fun, and New Year's Day would no longer be ruined.
Or you can go to the system I have been advocating for a while: Pac 12 vs Big 10 in Rose Bowl, SEC vs Big 12 in Sugar Bowl, winners in the Jerry Bowl. Champion gets the bonus trophy.
People forget the new system is still not an NCAA playoff. It is just another private group deciding how it wants to make a champion.
Bowls make money, and they all get better ratings than weeknight NBA or NCAA bball games, so they will be sticking around for a while.
Doesn't really matter who's 2 and who's 3 on a neutral field, does it now PuppyFS? Let them play the games and plug up your cunt. All the deserving teams got in. They all won their respective conferences. So shut the fuck up and let em play dipshit.
Post the schedules bitch. Let puppy expose 'your' hind licking conference and "UA team" for what they are.
Who even cares about who is 2 or 3? The teams play each other... 1/2 and 3/4 are the real ranks to quibble over if you care to quibble.
Does matter new fish bitch. It keeps Alabama from playing Oklahoma or Clemson, 2 teams who would roll the tide. Committee wants easiest path for Alabama and the SEC. No question bama should be 4 with their schedule and performance vs Florida Atlantic. Of course That couldnt happen. So lets keep bambam at #2 (most unwarranted ranking ive ever seen in my 30 years) and bump Oklahoma (the team most certain to beat bambi) to #4 to protect them.
Rankings make a huge fucking deal 1-4. Alabama has done NOTHING to warrant their cemented-in #2 ranking. The schedules show the blatant corruption at the top

I know winners win and losers lose, but that Michigan win deserves an asterisk. They should be #2 but in the end it doesn't matter

It's all a voting system one way or another.
Any argument that they deserve to be in the Final Four is FS ... they had everything in front of them and pissed it away.
Clemson
Bama
Oklahoma
Mich St
Iowa
Ohio St
Stanford
Team X
You know it'd be ND
