Backtalk: Times readers sound off on the College Football Playoff, UW basketball and Seahawks fans

Why was the College Football Playoff selection committee’s debating about whether Washington should be fourth? UW should have been moved to second or third, and the debate should have been about Clemson, its mediocre win, and whether it deserved to be fourth.

What did Clemson do to distinguish itself? The Tigers beat No. 18 Virginia Tech by seven points. UW beat No. 9 Colorado by 31. I thought the committee might drop Clemson out. Why would it move up? Bias is the only explanation.
