You're making my point for me. The entire point of having a playoff is to set up a championship based on what happened on the field. When you get into the whole if team X played them they would whip their a**, that's where the subjectivity comes in. The fact is nobody knows who would win. That's why the games are played. Taking the conference champions removes that subjectivity.

In your argument of the team that back doors their way in to a CCG from a weak division (Iowa, UCLA), they're going to get exposed in the CCG anyway. They always do. If they do manage to somehow get past the CCG though, then I believe they deserve a chance at the big stage. That's the whole point of a single game elimination playoff.

I want to see the best 4 or how ever many teams it is going at it. If its the top 4 teams from the Big 10, so be it. U Conn won the Big East while it was still around. got paired up with Oklahoma, got walked all over. the game made for terrible television, even if there was one my favorite moments in college football viewership. "That's unfortunate"

Maybe it's just my way of thinking, but I see the regular season as a playoff for the conference championship. Besides, your best 4 is different from my best 4, which is different from someone else's. You summed it up at the end though. It's all about television. It's never about the best ,4, but the 4 that will draw the most viewers. That's why TCU and Baylor were both shut out a couple of years ago.

Nobody cares, Bama fan. Get out!

Actually, I'm clearly late to the party here, but this is pretty stinking cool - thanks for sharing!

So you will require ND to go to a conference?

I like your system. Interesting that UCF is # 3. I doubt we’d ever see that in the real ratings.

Bowl Match-ups as of today:

Sugar Bowl (CFP) - #1 Alabama vs. #5 Ohio St
Rose Bowl (CFP) - #3 Wisconsin vs. #4 Georgia

Peach Bowl (At-Large vs At-Large) - #11 Auburn vs. #2 UCF*
Fiesta Bowl (At-Large vs At-Large) - #13 USC vs. #9 Notre Dame
Orange Bowl (ACC vs. SEC/Big 10/ND) - #6 Clemson vs. #8 Penn St
Cotton Bowl (At-Large vs. At-Large) - #7 Miami vs. #10 Oklahoma

*This reflects the reality that a Group of 5 school will never make the playoff.

The Rest of the SEC:

29. LSU (7-3) - 133.0751 (21/21)
34. South Carolina (7-3) - 127.1392
44. Texas A&M (6-4) - 119.5100
49. Kentucky (7-3) - 117.4202
59. Missouri (5-5) - 105.2747
62. Ole Miss (5-5) - 104.6178
85. Arkansas (4-6) - 92.7423
87. Tennessee (4-6) - 92.4630
88. Florida (3-6) - 92.0222
89. Vanderbilt (4-6) - 91.5369

There is still a possibility that the UT-Vandy game will be for the title of Worst in the SEC. However, if Florida manages to lose to UAB (a distinct possibility), I think the Gators are going to take the crown (of crap).

 

[zjcvols]

Curious to see who that fourth team will be. Right now it will be Bama/UGA, Oklahoma, Clemson/Miami winner.

Unless Arkansas gets absolutely wrecked by Missouri, the loser of the UT-Vandy game will walk away with the distinguished title of worst in the SEC.

The winner of the AAC championship game will determine who goes to the Peach Bowl--UCF or Memphis. The Access Bowl criteria for a G5 is the highest ranked conference champion in the CFP poll. Whoever wins that CCG game will be the highest ranked G5 champion.

Looks like you are using a software specified for odds picking. Am I correct? Those numbers look similar using straight up settings with the SEC conference ratings above avg. the 4 decimal places gave it away.

Looks like you are using a software specified for odds picking. Am I correct? Those numbers look similar using straight up settings with the SEC conference ratings above avg. the 4 decimal places gave it away.

Nope. This formula has nothing to do with odds, nor does it makes any predictions or take conference affiliation into account. And I rounded to 4 decimal places because I thought it looked better.
