I couldn't disagree more with this.

I don't think any teams in the MAC, CUSA, or SBC will ever sniff a national title. Same probably goes for MWC and AAC teams.

Football isn't basketball. Sure inferior teams pull upsets, but the odds of pulling off several upsets against vastly superior talent is so much less likely than it is in basketball.

I'll stick with what I said. Of those 8 teams, most if not all will come from the SEC, PAC, B1G, and throw in Notre Dame, and the Boise's of D1. There is enough parity from that group to have a very interesting 8 team playoff. I certainly would not discount teams from the Go5 conferences, although their chances of getting a berth in one of the 8 slots would be slim, but certainly not impossible.
