Personally I’d like to see more of the qualifying elements taken out of the committees hands and just leave the seading and filling out any vacancies to them

E.g.
top five conference champions (by resume ranking) qualify
Top five resumes as determined by a unbiased computer algorithm such as colley rankings
Then top five FPI or similar computer rankings used for determining who would be favored such as SP+ and Sagarin (up to 5 until 12 are reached)

If that doesn’t result in 12 teams, then the committee can fill in the rest per their current algorithms (eg favoring conference champion game losers and old glory programs like bama, Oklahoma and Texas

Then rank away

Right now that would make it;
B1G
SEC
B12
G5
ACC/G5

OSU
Indiana
BYU
Georgia
Oregon

OSU
Indiana
ND
Oregon
TT

So this week
OSU
Indiana
Georgia
Oregon
TT
TAM
Ole Miss
Alabama
ND
BYU
North Texas
Virginia

(Notably Oklahoma is first out and n this scheme)

Then Head to Head only comes into play for seeding teams and teams not automatically qualified by conference/resume/fpi

    - I'd say the heck with Conf. champions being guaranteed a spot. The game doesn't count for anything - DiscoRick - 8:19pm 12/5/25
