Yeah, I completely agree. I was in reference to those folks that want to get rid of conference championships. Winning the SEC has always been a huge accomplishment and it should always be that way. Winning on the field guarantees no co-champs.Depends purely upon context.
In terms of determining the four best teams to play for the National Championship, conference championships don't necessarily matter. Nor should they. Had Northwestern upset Ohio State in the Big 10 championship game, that wouldn't and shouldn't have had any bearing on their consideration for inclusion in the playoff.
Now, in terms of a program's success in a given season and historically, conference championships certainly do matter.

In no way should conference championships be tied to the national playoff.
