This 4 team playoff has kept all the 1 loss teams alive. I would not like where we are sitting in the 2 team BCS but I like where we are sitting in the 4 team playoff.
And this is really what we need to take from it all. The committee is gonna committee, but we're in pretty good shape for the 4 team playoff. We would be ever more so on the outside looking in, with the BCS format.
Right, in the BCS it would be FSU and then probably SEC Champ, although they could sneak in Oregon instead.
I'm glad there isn't much Notre Dame love. I don't think that team has much impact on the committee, as they aren't part of any conference, and most of the committee members are.
Even Lou Holtz, with his emphasis on Conference Champions, admitted that ND should join a conference.
What a funny arrangement they have with the ACC. They play for the basketball title but not football, although they are going to play seven ACC football teams a year.
