    Well, it did take 16 years to get from 2 to 4 teams.

    It'll have to change. There will eventually be lawsuits. There are too many coaches already complaining and with good reason: they're missing out on money and recruits due to the decisions of a committee that isn't even part of the NCAA. The CFP championship is not, I repeat not, the NCAA championship and the NCAA neither controls nor sanctions the committee or the "playoff". I'd guess there are bowl organizers out there who are not very happy either.
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    The NCAA has nothing to do with it, I think the committee itself will have to expand the field to avoid trouble.

    Don't worry, I won't.

    There are a multiple college basketball teams that should be on probation for their involvement in the recent scandal uncovered by the FBI. The FBI has gotten fraud convictions in court, yet the NCAA looks the other way.

    The selection committee fucked up choosing ND over UCF.
    If ND doesn't join a power conference they shouldn't be considered for the CFP.

    ND looked good during the regular season. But have a habit of pretending to be back, and then folding like a cheap tent in a hurricane.

    If UCF beats LSU today the CFP selection committee will have pie on it's face ... again.
    In fact I'd like to see them #2 in the final rankings, especially if the NC is not close, although I think it will be.

    I get that UCF has a great undefeated run. But against who? Half their games have been against teams with a losing record. Alabama catches hell about scheduling cupcakes, but UCF's entire schedule is cupcakes. Who did they beat that is worth anything? Pitt? Temple? Memphis seems to be a signature win for them.

    That is true. ND had a far more impressive schedule although their wins in the first half of the season were unimpressive. Maybe UCF should play ND in a bowl called the NIT Bowl, after the NCAA NIT basketball tournament. lol
    Too bad Vanderbilt didn't beat ND (at ND no less) they should have. It would have at least allowed OSU in if not UCF.
    Regardless, as flawed as selecting 4 teams by invitation is, it does produce the two best teams in the end.
