Georgia, who lost to South fucking Carolina, ahead of Arizona, who beat Oregon on the road, and Baylor, who beat TCU
ASU 3 spots ahead of Utah, despite losing by 35 at home to the same UCLA team Utah beat on the road
Oklahoma ahead of WVU despite one less win and no big wins like WVU's over Baylor

They should let Utopia pick the playoffs. My mong ass already watches ~10 hours of football on Saturdays.

Florida State why you deny ESPN their wet dream of an all SEC playoff?

The end result of that will be the SEC expanding to 16 with FSU and whoever. Fine with me, while FSU is my #2 team, I'd go travel to away games at most of the SEC schools.

With all the rape and thievery, they might as well be an SEC team.

I don't think the years of people arguing for a playoff over the years on this forum were "let's get 1@ jerkoffs to pick the teams." Of course this is a disaster.
Objective criteria need to be implemented. Easier said than done, but mainly because every organization involved in this from the ncaa, the conferences, the institutions themselves, and the Espn are jackasses.

An all-SEC playoff would hasten the expansion of the playoff to 6, then 8 teams.
Go SEC, go!
Go SEC, go!
I'd do this:
Sec plays round robin schedule. All 13 teams play each other. That is the one true champion to the chagrin of big 12 marketers.
All other teams give 25% of top line revenue to sec as tribute for even attempting to play the sport the sec has perfected.
All other teams are playing for 15th
place.
Importance of regular season is preserved.
Kids only play 13 games so they can concentrate on academics.

Well I didn't advocate for jerkoffs, but knowing that was the inevitable result, I did argue for a 12 team playoff, and I think it will get there eventually. Actually I think they'll go to 16, but I like 12 because you can structure incentives (1-4 get a bye, 5-8 get a home game).
You just need more teams, then the selection criteria aren't as important.

This has always been my position too, that the only way to get it even close to right is to expand enough teams to reduce your margin of error and decrease the magnitude of the argument over the last place in. Personally I like 8 teams, with home field advantage for the 1st round as the incentive, and ease of logistics (hard to schedule a possibility of 3 extra games at neutral sites and fans still attend).

Those familiar with FCS, Div II and III, how are those playoffs structured? I'm sure it's basically a combo of conference champs plus at-large teams. I'm also sure that in those divisions, they have their own versions of the SEC where they have a plethora of strong teams while other conferences are shit.
I like an 8 team playoff because, just like the NCAA basketball tourney, it fits neatly into three weekends. A larger 12 or 16 team playoff would almost certainly require shortening the season (or moving its Week 1 to the second week of August), and for the many schools for which getting into the playoffs is about as likely as Travis selling the Trogrunner, they ain't gonna give up that extra revenue.

Dang. I had always wished NCAA football had a FCS version where you could win the (real) national championship via getting through a playoff.

8 team playoff, 5 power conference champions + 3 selected teams.
The juxtaposition between this argument and @Mame YO's Obamacare argument is too good.
At this point I have no faith that the NCAA will do anything right.The NCAA would fuck up a wet dream, so it doesn't matter if they have a 12 team tournament because somehow, some way they'll manage to make it even worse than the current setup. They'll exclude some undefeated mid major team in favor of a 4 loss SEC team and my head will asplode.
