OU vs. A&M in the Cotton is going to be a great matchup.
How pissed are FSU fans? They had to play a poor 6-6 Ga Tech team in the ACC championship, and their reward for winning is the right to play a poor Northern Illinois team in the Orange Bowl. I bet ticket sales will be amazing for that thrilling matchup...
Not many interesting matchups this year and a ton of crap teams playing bowl games. I hope the playoff and selection committee beginning in 2014 will finally start matching the best teams up against each other.

...and people are already trying to put caveats into the playoff format. Instead of saying "let's get the four best teams" and leaving it at that, people want to add "as long as we don't take more than one from any conference".
It's insane.
Let's imagine this scenario for a moment:
The final rankings go something like this:
Alabama
Oregon
USC
Florida
Stanford
LSU
Oklahoma
Texas
KSU
Georgia
West Virginia
South Carolina
Louisville
Your playoff would be Alabama, Oregon, Oklahoma, Louisville. What does that solve?
