Christmas came a few weeks early for the College Football Playoff selection committee.

This last Sunday, the 12 members of the committee achieved what once seemed impossible in a sport famous for its debate and chaos come postseason play: agreement.

No. 1 Clemson, No. 2 Alabama, No. 3 Michigan State and No. 4 Oklahoma were selected for the playoff’s four slots and for the first time in a very long time, everyone seemed to agree that these schools earned it. Meaning that this year, the drama and intrigue of the postseason will actually happen on the field and not during the selection process.
