You evaluate teams by who they play, how well they play, and where they play.
Geographical diversity and how "deserving" a team is, are concoctions that have nothing to do with determining merit.
"Conference Champion" is another abstraction that says almost nothing about a team compared to other teams not in that conference.
I've heard so many talking heads blathering about "eye tests" and "deserving" teams. Screw them. If the Committee leaves us out on objective grounds, I'll be fine with it. But if they cave to obfuscating homers like Herbstreit and Kannell, they should be hounded out of polite society.
