If you don’t win your championship you should not be in the playoff. It should be Ohio State, Okie State, Clemson and GA or USC.

They need to put the Big 5 Champions together and add 3 other champions at large. Otherwise it is a fake Championship like ESPN has now.

It would be crazy to place 2 SEC teams this year

First, the OK Sooners not the Oklahoma State Cowboys, won the Big 12 Championship yesterday.

The locks are Clemson, Oklahoma, and Georgia, which won the SEC Championship. The discussion boils down to the fourth slot, AL or Ohio State. AL has only one loss to Auburn. OSU has two losses including being blown out by Iowa. OSU is a conference champion.

If it were done strictly on merit, AL should be the fourth team. However, it will probably be Ohio State so that the Big Ten can be represented along with the ACC, SEC, and Big 12.

Do not disagree but last year the playoff committee let Ohio State in and said winning the conference did not matter. A one loss team was better than a two loss team.

-> If you don’t win your championship you should not be in the playoff.

Exactly! Games (ergo Championships) are to be decided on the field, not paper. See David vs. Goliath as a good example.
