Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby revealed a few more clues about the makeup of the new College Football Playoff committee. Not who might be on it, but what their job will be.

Including this nugget: “It’s going to take somebody with significant work ethic,” Bowlsby said, noting that the job would include film study and travel.

Oh brother. The next time you hear someone mention that troubles are deep-seeded and cultural, this is exactly what they’re talking about. The committee that will be asked to pick the four semifinalists for college football’s tournament will need to study film.

What exactly will they be watching? The technique of the defensive tackles? The arm strength of the quarterback. The dexterity of the cornerbacks. The speed of the linebackers? Sounds like a scouting mission.
