The CFP Committee is heavily populated with SEC affiliated members including the just promoted chairman spokesman.

Every Conference title game loser has dropped in ranking in the past and this year except Alabama this year.

Alabama should not have leapfrogged ND two weeks ago after Auburn and should not be in now.

I read that SEC would not accept a 3 loss Alabama team being excluded two years in a row.

The SEC has 5 of the 12 teams in, three of whom did not play in their conference title game and 1 of which was clobbered in that game.

This is the real travesty of the whole system and process.

The SEC had 4 of the 7 at large invitations and the BiG10 had 2. That left only 1. What if Penn State, Michigan and/or USC were highly ranked? Would the 2 conferences get all of the 7 at large bids? This is the logical end point of the current system- these two behemoths are basically in total control.

5 of the at large teams did not play in a conference title game and lacked the sacred 13th data point - OMG. But wait - that only applies to ND.
