Nick Saban doesn’t have all the answers, but he certainly poses some intriguing questions.

The Alabama coach joined Fox Sports’ Joel Klatt to talk college football when, of course, the topic of the College Football Playoff came up. Do we want parity in the sport? Is there a better way to decide the CFP?

“So but the problem with the way the whole system is, there’s no accounting for that, right,” Saban said of parity. “So, all we do is take the teams that win the most games at the end of the year, put them in the playoffs. But do you really get the best teams? When they told me that we would be favored against three out of the four teams that got in the playoff, I’m like, why aren’t we in the playoffs?”

The thought is the Tide would have been favored over Michigan, TCU and Ohio State and an underdog to Georgia.

“Does that mean they have a better team,” Saban said. “Or does it mean that those people don’t know what they’re talking about? I really don’t know that. But I’m not being critical of anybody. But if you’re going to have parity, you have to have a better way of figuring out who has the best teams, not just because you lose two games on the last play of the game.

“That knocks you out when you may be better than somebody else who didn’t have the same circumstances that they had played.”

If you recall, there was plenty of ammunition on all sides last season.

The Tide dropped two games by a combined four points on the final play of losses to Tennessee and LSU.

TCU lost the Big 12 title game, and Ohio State didn’t play in the Big Ten title game after getting run at home by Michigan.
