[QUOTE="WVUALLEN, post: 130376690, member: 1112294"] Then why was UCF not in playoffs? G5 has no shot. Two SEC teams in title game. No B1G team. Two times the champs have been teams that did not win their conference title. TCU lost to BYU blowing huge lead at the end. G5 had a better shot with BCS. Although there was no such thing as G5 or P5 then. All WVU had to do was win their last game and they were in the title game. WVU would have to be unbeaten to have a shot at the table or one of the other conferences have a champ with 2 losses. Still that is no guarantee as Ohio State and Alabama did not win their conference but still made it. Returning to the old formula that factored into the old BCS ratings, one of the computer rankings did its part to create a little of the adversity that Saban enjoys. Each formula measures success with different factors. Before the BCS died and the playoff was born, computer ratings made up one-third of the standings formula. Human polls made up the other slice of the pie. Now it's all secretive and 100% human selection. [/QUOTE]
