So if GA beat LSU and the “committee” pullled 2 sec teams into the 4, that would be ok?
Committees determining champions are for diving and ice dancing.
I would prefer conference champions advancing without the all the beauty contest preseason/ in-season spin machinery that ESecPN, CBS, and others push for their own money agenda. It’s less drama and less soap opera using only conference champions, but it’s real.
Maybe with realignment there can be enough conferences to produce an 8 team playoff without “committee input”, and yes there will always be weak conferences or down years for certain conferences, but it’s better to settle this on the field rather than the hypothetical/ virtual way people think a certain team will perform against another.
See: sec , for the reason this is not working optimally.
