Re: Poll: best way to determine NCAA Div I Football National Champion?
I have no idea who the best team in college football is, and I doubt I would have any idea after any size playoff you decide to use. However, at least we would have arrived at a championship game using some objectivity.
The problem comes down to picking who makes the tournament. NCAAB is fine with this because the controversy usually ends up being Team A is seeded to high or low, but a 64 team football tournament would never work. A system using a selection committee would face the same problems as the current system. A system that attempted to make comparable schedules would destroy the tradition of conferences.
There is, of course, Bowl money to worry about, too. Ugh. This will never get done.
