I love that people claim this is going to an objective process where we will “decide the champion on the field”. In reality, we will be giving the CFP committee more power than they’ve ever had. They will now be choosing six at large teams AND deciding the entire order for the bracket.
Dopey porst, as per your usual.
They currently PICK 4 teams, as none of them need to be conference champs. Now they would pick 6.
They seed all the teams in ANY playoff field.
Same job as they EVER had. Except now, there are a lot fewer whining debates over Team #5 and seeding. With 12 teams to seed, sure, the CFP might "miss" by a spot or two, but not in a way that cuts off a worthy team from being in the playoffs. The #5 ranked team plays the #12 ranked team and who gives a **** if that same #5 team was somehow seeded #7 and (gasp) needs to play the #10 team instead.
Nobody is going to lose any sanity because they had to play a team one or two spots higher in the first round, as long as they have a chance to win a championship.
