Three years in. Some interesting observations.

The SEC, ACC and B1G have been represented all three years.

And they are the conferences who have won the three titles.

Alabama has been there 3 times. Clemson and Ohio State have each been there twice.

And those are the three teams to have won the whole thing.

That's why I hope they don't mess with the formula, and change it to 8 teams. It works, leave it at 4 teams. But we all know that it will end up going to 8 teams....because of the $$$$.

I agree, shoot this year we only had 2 deserving teams.

And under the guise of the BCS this year's national championship game would've featured Ohio State and Alabama and we all know the outcome of that of that event

No. It would have been Clemson and Bama. Clemson got the 2 seed and they won their conference. It would have been exactly the same matchup, so the committee got it right in the end.

And the #1 seed hasn't won the championship yet either, right?

...and if they continue the trend to schedule good OOC games, I don't think we will see one. JMO.
Only one that had an OOC loss was Ohio State.

how would you rate the 6 playoff games and the 3 title games?

The last 2 title games between Bama and Clemson have been great. The first year, the best game was Bama v Ohio State. All the other games have been pretty 1-sided.

Me thinks that number will rise if the CFP keeps saying they will reward good OOC wins...and do so.

However, they sent a mixed message this year. They rewarded tOSU for it but allowed Washington in with a Bayloresque OOC.

That game wasn't as close as the final score indicated IMO. FSU was never really in the game IIRC. At least SParty kept their's close for a while.

Agree on the rest.

sparty was down 10-0 at half and then Bama just ran away.
FSU game was 18-13 at half before Oregon ran away
