committee for 12 team playoff

Should bring back a balance of computer rankings (with transparent algorithms set and known) and human subjective polling.

Nothing is perfect, but it's harder to bitch when everyone goes into a season knowing the rules are set.

Rank them according to the methodology agreed upon and set the field, rematches or not.

Ez to rig.

1 4 5 8 bracket
2 3 6 7 bracket

There are rematches in basketball and baseball,

There was a rematch between Georgia and Bama in football, but it was for the championship.

Gotta put the teams somewhere.

Yeah, that sure sounds NON-biased.

you can't eliminate bias from a human poll. But, you can balance with the computer polls for a good result to mitigate that flaws in each.

The BCS formula was pretty good in the end. Just bring back a similar format and replace the coaches and Harris poll human inputs with equal weight for the committee poll.

Any kind of human interaction can be biased by the following:

- favoritism toward a team/conference/coach
- dislike toward a team/conference/coach
- coaches who give the task to somebody else to fill out
- WHO has the time to watch ALL the games in order to fairly complete the poll?

ex.: Which game do you give more credit:
Game A where Team X outscores Team Y 70-0
or
Game B where Team Z wins by 1 pt. in the final seconds?

brackets are 1 45 0

vs 23 67

put all one conference on one side of bracket or separate or honest rank

E.g., Saban putting Stanford above OSU in 2011. Humans can always manipulate but the BCS and computers would be way better than the committee.

No reseeding

We need a computer picking the teams based on a BCS style formula.
