only thing I would advocate is why penalize sec teams for playing the schedule they have to play every year while giving automatic berths to small conferences as bid stealers. Look at LSU non conf record LSU would still mop the floor with 3/4 the field the sec is so competitive now that really good teams are getting shortchanged
I’m glad someone sees that this is what I’m getting at, not “everyone gets a trophy”

Then say that. That is actually a valid argument when you look at LSU non conference schedule which includes a neutral site win against the #18 team in the nation. Outside of the SEC and ACC, LSU would probably be leading any other conference right now. There is something to say about their schedule they played.
But that isn’t the same as saying they should just be in bc they won last year. Especially when 80% of the team is brand new.

Keep rationalizing. If it's not everyone gets a trophy it is pretty close. It is the regular season means very little.
The selection committee already takes conferences into account, which is why more than half the SEC get in and a quarter or more host a regional, often a super. A defending champ, especially in the context of a team that loses a lot of players, should have to earn a chance like everyone else.
