A few years ago the committee said that Baylor didn't get in because of their weak OOC schedule.

That same year, they dropped TCU out of the playoffs the Final weekend because they didn't play a championship game. Both Baylor and TCU had one loss.

Fast forward to this year and Washington is in with a horrible OOC schedule and Ohio State is in without playing in a conference title game or even winning their conference.

I just want some consistency and some criteria. I understand that the committee put in who they "think" are the best four teams I'm just sick of hearing their ridiculous reasoning. It does seem like a beauty pageant.

People say if the playoff were 8 teams, like I want, then there would be an argument over who the 8th team was. To me, it's comparing apples and oranges. At least with 8 teams, you could have five automatic bids for power five teams based on winning your league. At least everyone would know what they had to do to get in. I would rather be arguing about which second place PAC-12 or Big-12 team didn't get in rather than complaining about the Big 10 champion not get in over a team they beat in their division.

I like a world in which you have OOC games like OU/Ohio State, Wisconsin/LSU, Alabama/USC, or Michigan/Colorado.

I don't like a world in which you can get rewarded for playing Rutgers, Idaho, and Portland State and get the nod over a team that won the Big 10 and another team (Michigan) that has three wins over top 10 teams and one loss against a top 10 team in overtime.

For the record, I think Washington is a good team and I will be rooting for them to win it all. I'm just pointing out what I perceive to be huge flaws with this system.

We screamed for years to get a playoff, and now the system is improved, but I want the powers at be to continue to improve the system because it could still be a lot better.
