I wish they would let the computers rank the top 10. The top 4 get in the playoffs, and bottom 6 go to other New Year's Day BCS-type bowls. Then a human "selection committee" could come in and seed the top 4, using geography or avoiding re-matches or whatever subjective method they want to use, and they could also set matchups for the other three bowls.
Nobody other than players, coaches, and officials/referees should interject themselves directly into the game other than cheering and/or making noise from their seats. That should apply to students, fans, administrators, media, etc. Haden should be barred from the stadium if he can't control himself.
