There was plenty of debate when the selection committee announced this year's College Football Playoff field on Sunday. No. 4 Washington will take its shot at No. 1 Alabama in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, while No. 2 Clemson and No. 3 Ohio State do battle in the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl—all with a trip to the national championship on the line.
The committee got it right
The four teams selected to appear in this year’s playoff have been the top teams in college football all year. In a season that was filled with many competitive teams, the four playoff contenders have more than earned their stake in the playoff.
