Reporter the fans and pundits sounding off online in the first ever College Football playoff. Alabama, oregon. Florida state and ohio state.

But you got it wrong. Its a new process. Its unchartered waters. Reporter they are scrapping tradition for this new system. Letting the selection committee, including condoleezza rice, choose the four teams. Tonight, they have defended their picks. Ohio state earned the spot. Reporter and the selection kmitty with a former secretary of state and rhodes scholars and they will be the first admit, this is a subjective process. Still questioned, was this the right way to do it. Lets bring in espn analyst kirk herbstreit. No one is calling the new selection testimony perfect. But in your opinion, are the four best teams in College Football in the final four . Yeah, i really think they got it right. There was question going to the final weekend if it was going to be ohio state, tcu or baylor. Ohio state had a win in the big ten championship game with a new quarterback, and i think that is what got them over the hump, ended up getting them above both tcu and baylor. So you have the best four teams in the country at the end of the year. When we have a clear winner, will it settle arguments in living rooms and sports bars across the country . No, never. We have subjective analysis with a 12person committee. Its very, very different than the nfl. You will always have big, strong opinions from fan bases around the country. When it works out, its a great system. When it doesnt work out, we need a new system. Theres a lot of passion with College Football.
