2014 was the year the Playoff Committee rallied their social influencers to flood college boards with all the reasons TCU wasn’t worthy. (JK)

I think it would be kind of cheap to have an unwritten rule that a certain conference must be included.I think 4 is a lot better than 12.
I don’t think you can leave Texas out. They beat Alabama. And I don’t think you can have CFP without an SEC team, would seem kinda cheap. Such chaos. I kinda like it.

We might have a first this year with an undefeated P5 team, Florida State, getting left out. Alabama, Texas and Georgia may all be better than FSU without their #1 QB. The committee might see FSU is one dimensional now with only defense and not good enough to compete for a championship - only 219 yards of offense yesterday and 232 the week before versus Florida! The committee does not want a team in the playoff that can’t compete for the Championship, and maybe get walloped instead - it is their responsibility.
I too don’t think you can have this CFP without an SEC team - and one-loss SEC Champ Alabama just defeated #1 Georgia!!! And then it is difficult to leave Texas out - it was only the second game of the season, but Texas did soundly beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa.

Bama would needed a MIRACLE to beat Auburn last week. I’d put Texas in. Georgias Qb looked horrendous. Wish we played him

Except when that conference has won 70% of the NCs since the playoff started…
A crowned champion that didn’t have to beat an SEC team in the playoffs is illegitimate at this point in time

FSU will get their #2 QB back before the playoffs start and he looked legitimate

He looked terrible against Florida. Did we watch different games?

Brilliant. Let’s make all future playoff selections based on their respective conference’s historical record in the playoff.

Well when the other 4 conferences manage to beat them 2 years in a row - you can complain
At the moment - they are better than the other 4 combined
Bigger argument will be who is 4th or 5th with 1st round byes.
12 teams is awesome because it preserves the regular season. 1 loss doesn’t destroy the season (never should have). 2 losses means low seed. 3 is likely out except for teams like Bama/LSU etc.

Exactly, and a team can progress from Week 1 to becoming an elite team by the end of the season (ie Bama)
There aren’t even close to 12 teams capable of winning a title.

I think Alabama is a certainty, they are in.
It comes down to Texas or FSU for the final spot. The FSU offense was not good with QB Rodemaker in the Florida game. He was 12-25 for 134 yards. This is his 4th year at FSU and he is not a good starting QB. He didn‘t transfer out to start somewhere - he knows what he is, happy to be a backup and get a few snaps.
Texas is a more complete team because FSU lost their starting QB.

OUCH!!!
No 2014 was the year that Barry Alvarez and Wisconsin took one for the team and laid down for Ohio St so they could get in the CFP.

Yes but the committee also wants public buy-in to maximize viewership.

However, they break the four down, whoever gets left out there will be some sort of BS statement as to why they got left out. 2014 all over again. I wouldn't be surprised if they keep Georgia and Bama in. I don't think they will but to drop the team from number one to essentially number six is unheard of. Then you would be taking a team from number eight to number four. The whole thing is just gonna be a mess.

Yes. They were talking about yesterday's games. Graphic should have said Iowa.
