I have said it before and I will say it again when you bring people into the equation there will always be biases. I honestly don't understand why we didn't just keep the current BCS poll system and just take the top 4 teams.
At the very least hire full time folks that this is all they do. With all the money college football makes I don't understand why we couldn't bring in folks that this was their only job? You can't honestly tell me that this committee watches all of the games, in fact I know they don't. They break the games up and dole them out.
I agree 100%. Just keep the BCS ranking system in place. But....bringing the human element back into it really changed the dynamics of how everyone talks about football again. The talking heads feel relevant again. Everyone has a top 4 every single week. The talk is about what the committee is thinking and what they might or might not do. Very similar to going back to the days of polls. AP...UPI...Corches....
In one sense, there is the unfairness and/or bias that is inevitable. But, it's also one of the things that makes college foosballz so unique. There is no other sport, college or pro, that's set up the way college football is. Yes, they've expanded to 4 teams and calling it a "playoff". Playoffs? Playoffs? It's not a playoff. That's total BS when your picking 4 teams out of what...almost 140?
