They're not just picking the playoff, though
They're picking the [s]two[/s] four* non-semifinal major bowls, which I believe are the Sugar and the Peach this year, and the highest-ranked non-Power 5 team has to be placed in one of those. So it's important to know, for example, where East Carolina falls, or perhaps eventually Marshall (although I'm not sure they'll ever crack the rankings).
* Seriously, I have problems. I was thinking six games, and they put four teams in the playoff, so that's two other games remaining... I have no words.
