  • I like this take.

    My argument is this: all four “power” conferences had newcomers in the championship games, two of which won and the other two came down to the wire and lost by 3 points. Those four conferences really aren’t that different from each other at the top. Boise State is interesting, but isn’t this one of the best “G5” teams there’s been? It’s like Cincinnati making the 4-team playoff a few years ago (and UCF, Houston, etc before). So they deserve to be rewarded, IMO.

    The ESPN commentators were railing against the auto-bids during the games yesterday, too (especially Joe Tessitore). Made them really annoying to watch.
