I can't believe we are talking about schools like JMU and Duke, let alone UVA. None of them should have been in consideration for the CFP b/c they just don't have the same caliber teams as the schools in other conferences. They can and do deserve to win their own conference, but putting them up against B10 and SEC schools is likely going to end up in very lopsided game. I know how excited UVA was this year about football, but they only played 1 ranked team all season. Let them play Oklahoma, Oregon, Michigan, Ole Miss and see how that goes (before the CFP). The automatic bid for 5 conference championships brought schools like JMU into the playoffs. It's nice for conferences that don't get represented, but it's unfair to all the SEC & B10 that are higher ranked, but get bumped for the 25th team. Between this nonsense and the coaching change window, someone needs to step in and fix this mess.
