Agreed.  Ohio State faced better talent then Alabama and deserved it over Alabama, but they were not going to beat either Oklahoma or Clemson had they been selected instead.

Last year and this year have proven that conference championships don't matter and that we need an 8 team playoff. The 5 power 5 conference champs are automatically in, the highest group of 5 champ is in and then the top 2 remaining teams regardless of conference for the last 2 spots.

No, the last two seasons prove that there is no real point to having a playoff when the participants are still selected by a panel of people.  It is the same problem that plagued the BCS system.  The rankings are subjective, and that is how the participants are selected.  They are not determined by record alone, or by conference champ alone.  It is subject to someone saying "I think X is better than Y" and making an argument for it.   You can expand the playoff to include all ranked teams, but you will still hear "X should have been ranked over Y".
