Yeah, I agree that this system would be very good at doing at making sure teams were eliminated by losses only. But it
has been close in some cases.
2017 UCF would be in only because ND wasn’t ahead of them with 3 losses. If ND had been a two-loss team UCF is out.
So a historical look back says it would have been fine (for the last 15 years anyway) but that doesn’t mean one wouldn’t be arbitrarily left out in the future. So I don’t think it’s ideal in principle. But in practice it would be awesome. Especially compared to what we have now.

Top non-P5 should be included only if the playoff is this large. But giving them a top 5 seed is dumb

I understand the argument. I just disagree. It sucks but G5 schedules are just horrible compared to P5

If it’s fed by conference championships rather than rankings, then the regular season is just as important to the end.

More important: There should be no arbitrary benefit awarded by anything other than wins and losses.

It's not about only winning because schedules people play are so inherently unequal that it's impossible
