I look at it the other way. The only deserving team to win it all is Bama. If anything a 4 team playoff is more than enough this year.
I completely agree with this. It's ridiculous to allow a team like Michigan to even have a chance. Alabama is so much better and undefeated
I admittedly have mixed feelings on this. The season is relatively short compared to other sports, and excellence over the entire season needs to be rewarded. On the other hand, every other sport seems to have enlarged their playoff field to accommodate late peaking teams. Without enlarged fields we never would have had Villanova or NC St in college basketball, or the Steelers winning that Super Bowl as a wild card, or the Cardinals winning the WS barely above .500 a few years ago. It wasn't all that long ago that only the conference winner got in in NCAAB.
Why should college football be any different? The way it's done now teams that schedule weak OOC schedules, or are fortunate enough to have a tame conference schedule in any given year have a huge advantage. The fact is that 3 loss teams USC and Florida St would both be favored right now over Penn St or Wisconsin.

Aren't there like 10-12 teams that would be favored over PS and Wisky? That just shows how watered down it is this year. Bama annhilated USC already. Actually, they should just hand Bama the trophy and play the bowl games as the exhibitions that they are.
Not many teams in the country that I think would handle Pitt at this point in the season.
Beginning of the year were were mainly explosive at running the ball now we move it through the air.
I would like to see Pitt run the ball down their throats which what Colorado failed to do.
Stop it. No, we are not better than Washington. Colorado is an upstart, no doubt Probably back to 5-7 next year. But let's not ruin this feel-good season by deluding ourselves thinking we are in the top echelon. Yet. This is a very promising first step. Don't get ahead of yourself...
Agree - I think that throughout the season it has been shown that it is hard to stop this Pitt team offensively.... but if an opponent has any semblance of a passing game, they have a chance to win.
Good thing about it is that Washington is in. If Clemson wins, the field is set. Zero chance for the Nits. I'd love to see USC boat race them in the Rose.
