This final four pairing in the CFP are the best four teams hands down.

Sure, games may still be lopsided ahead 'cause football, but it's hard to argue that the 12-team format ultimately didn't place the best of the bunch into the Semis this season. AZ State at #4 had a chance and had they ultimately won vs Texas I'd say the same thing.

Like it or not this format delivered, and I really don't see any reason to expand ahead other than pure greed. For the first two out and the butthurt for not making the cut - don't let one of your 3 losses be to a bad KY team at home and don't get blown out by a .500 team that couldn't even beat Navy.

Seeing both Big 2 conference champions lose also reinforces the argument behind ensuring at least 5 conference champions do make it in. It's a solid check on conference bias, and by the end the cream, regardless of conference or no, will rise to the top.
