Playoff committee

With a new 4 team playoff coming to college football next year a committee is being formed to decide which four teams will qualify for the playoff. This committee is being filled with some of the biggest names in college football. Including former NFL qb Archie Manning, former Nebraska coach and athletic director Tom Osborne, Tyrone Willingham, the former football coach at Stanford, Notre Dame and Washington, Wisconsin Athletic director Barry Alvarez, USC athletic AD Pat Haden, West Virginia AD Oliver Luck and Clemson AD Radakovic. Rounding out the rest of the group is  former Big East commissioner Mike Tranghese, retired Lt. Gen. Michael Gould,  former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Gould and Rice strike me as odd choices at first glance as they are the only ones not at some point associated with the game. But after looking closer into it they both seem to know a good bit about football and could be able to provide  a different perspective on the potential playoff teams.
