IRVING, Texas, Oct. 16 () -- Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was selected to be on the 13-member panel to select the teams for next year's first College Football Playoff.While Rice's participation in the selection process was reported earlier, College Football Playoff Executive Director Bill Hancock officially released the committee's makeup Wednesday.Most of the panel members are well-known because of their football-related activities, which led to criticism when Rice's name was suggested. In addition to a more political background, Rice, a faculty member at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business, is the only woman on the committee."Condi definitely earned her spot on this committee," Hancock said. "She knows this game. She is a student of this game."Arkansas Athletic Director Jeff Long was named the committee chairman.
