There are logical rules that could improve playoff selection...

1) 13-0 Power 5 champs are automatically in, no questions asked. That team deserves to keep playing, end of story. If you've lost a game, ANY GAME, you put yourself in limbo. 2) There should NEVER EVER be potential for regular season rematches in a 4 team playoff. If you lost to a team that's in, you are out. 3) If you lose your conference, you CANNOT play for a national championship Go through those first, otherwise expand the playoff. ** Edited by Techsupport at 12/4/2023, 9:08:41 AM

The expanded field is going to fix most of it

2nd rule is nice, but would sometimes leave out 4 best teams

Because they already played the game...

Notre Dame would not be in under next year's rules.

I'm sure they'll use their "eye test" to adjust their invitations. Book it!**

Yes, next year probably. But this year ND is #16.
