As much as I hate the BCS, I'd rather have unbiased computers determining who gets into a playoff, rather than a 14-20 person committee..
what makes you think the computers are unbiased? Who is programing them, what are the criteria? A committee will be known and can be held accountable.
se the BCS to determine the top 4 and have them play. its not that difficult.
So lets screw Stanford in 2012 for playing a tough game at ND and have Oregon, who they beat at Oregon get in over them. Though Ironically, it would have been the opposite in 2011.
I don't know why people are so scared of a committee, they do a good job with other tournaments. They could correct the errors of polls, like teams moving down for losing late or being ranked higher simply because they have a better record.
