Tired of hearing about "eye test" and "4 best"......

Both of these items are subjective and pundits need to stop saying things like "Ohio State is definitely one of the four best, cannot be argued!". Yes it can! Best is purely subjective.
The playoffs decide the National CHAMPION, not the best team. Often times the best is the champion, but not always. If VT would have won last night, they would have been ACC CHAMPION, not the BEST team in the ACC. Same thing with Florida. Very few people are arguing that Penn State is the best in the BIG 10.
Why don't people consider that for the National CHAMPION as well? There can be a difference between the best and the champion.
Personally, I think the committee should balance "best" and "deserving" with factoring in the stated criteria.
1-Bama, 2-Clemson, 3-Washington, 4-Penn State
Penn State beat Ohio State and won their freaking conference championship. End of story for me.
