The College Football Playoff Committee may have gotten the Top 4 teams right, but that doesn't mean they are ranked correctly, which goes to game location, or that they got there in a deliberate method. But the fact that their Top 4 contains the same four teams in my ranking gives me a little faith in the final outcome of the new process.
In my scenario, Florida State would host Ohio State in the Sugar Bowl while Alabama would travel to the Rose Bowl and host Oregon. Instead, Alabama hosts Ohio State in the Sugar Bowl while Oregon hosts Florida State in the Rose Bowl. A clear disadvantage to Florida State, the only undefeated team in the bracket.

2014.11.30
So I don't understand what the CFP committee is doing. They keep dropping undefeated FSU, first from #2 to #3, now from #3 to #4. Did they loose? No. Is a win over Texas more impressive than a win over Florida? No. So how can you move TCU ahead of FSU? No idea. Still number one on my list. Championship games next week could clear things up or make it more muddy.
