SEC and the CFP

[The Future]

I kinda/sorta agree with Vol In Buckeye Land. Something needs to change with the way the CFP committee looks at this. Let's face it, the SEC has created a monster conference, that is going to cannibalize itself every year with the way the CFP committee looks at their choices. Seems as though the AP and CP don't mean jack shxxt to them anymore. Has anyone looked at the Mountain West Conference, Big12, Big10, or ACC, their team schedules, that are in the CFP selection? The majority of SEC teams would rule their conference. I get it, but until this monster SEC conference changes/falls off, and other conferences up their game, there should be no less than 5 teams in the CFP from the SEC. That would break up the logjam of 9-2 SEC teams. Let's face it. NIL has turned college football into a minor league NFL. Compared to baseball, you have 3A, 2A, and 1A leagues. Play the games with outer conference teams, at a neutral site. That would cut down travel time for both fans. Seems as though the days of playing cupcake games, if you gonna play big boy football, are over, and a bowl game? What for....?

Exactly. The conference championship is now undesirable, as it puts your team in jeopardy of the real prize.
Strength of schedule has to trump allotments to conferences.
And cupcakes will need to be replaced with cross-conference matchups, to separate those that are real contenders from the pretenders. Conference championships...???

Need to squash the Big 10 this year in the playoffs and remind everyone how good the SEC is. Our conference lost some prestige when Georgia missed out on the playoffs last year and Michigan won it all.
