I actually don’t think there’s some hidden conspiracy agenda, I just think that most of the people on the committee have innate biases due to their background, and those biases cloud their judgement (ill-intentioned or not).
Which is why I would be 100% on board with the old BCS-style selection system, only the top 8 teams make it instead of 4.
For the record I don’t consider this system a conspiracy. The playoff committee isn’t sitting over a beer planning their lies. It is just business. Everybody involved loves the $7 billion paid by espn for playoff rights and don’t want it to stop. They also know that the source of the money is TV and ratings. None of this makes any sense to me otherwise.
