    Also, what about a team who loses 2 early games then closes the year with 3 top 5 wins including a conference championship? Is it full body of work or what you're doing at the end of the season? Because we’ve seen 2 teams sneak in and win the whole thing (Ohio State in 2014 and Bama 2017). Were they not the best team?

    Losses happen, especially when you play quality opponents week in and week out. If you want to punish a team for losing 2 games, ok. But never reward a team for winning all their games against teams who wouldn’t crack the top 50

    Not disagreeing with that. But the CFP committees considers that the 4 most deserving, they’re shooting for the 4 best.

    Reality is, it’s still a beauty constest. It’s still a vote controlled by man and that won’t change because the playing field is too uneven.

    What if, we had an 8 team playoff and the season ended yesterday, what teams are in/out

    Coaches Poll
    1 Alabama(61) 7-0
    2 Ohio State(1) 7-0
    3 Clemson(2) 6-0
    4 Notre Dame 7-0
    5 LSU 6-1
    6 Georgia 6-1
    7 Michigan 6-1
    8 Texas 6-1
    9 UCF 6-0
    10 Oklahoma 5-1
    11 Oregon 5-1
    12 Florida 6-1
    13 West Virginia 5-1
    14 Washington 5-2
    15 NC State 5-0
    16 Penn State 4-2
    17 Kentucky 5-1

    SEC- Alabama
    Big- Ohio State
    ACC- Clemson
    Big- Texas
    PAC- Oregon
    :cool: with 3 spots to fill, I'd choose
    Notre Dame
    LSU
    Michigan

    Georgia, Oklahoma, WV, would be next, UCF with maybe the 20th spot.

    Playoff
    Michigan vs Alabama
    Notre Dame vs Ohio State
    LSU vs Clemson
    Oregon vs Texas

    G5 schools can’t just join a P5 conference or schedule murders row.

    1. Alabama (SEC)
    2. Ohio St (B10)
    3. ACC - Clemson
    4. Notre Dame
    5. B12 - Texas
    6. AAC - UCF
    7. P12 - Oregon
    8. LSU

    Michigan can go cry me a river.

    I agree. They would have to have at least a few quality wins to get a seat at the table.

    Top 12 UCF if undefeated (rated higher than Oregon) should have its shot against the 1 seed. If no UCF, no Oregon.

    We aren’t determining #8, we’re determining #1. UCF, given limitations outside of their control, took care of business. Michigan did not but had every opportunity to.
