I think if I were to switch up my brain and me view how the “playoffs” are viewed and go to the idea your tournament of champions, I would be all over this. So if we had a perfect world, this idea is something that could work

I’m completely on board with the idea of including the champions if it increased to around 12. But there’s still issues with this that I raised earlier. and I’m not asking you to solve them, I’m just asking if the headache of the new 12 or whatever team playoff is going to be easier than the...

That’s a far stretch from what My point has been. If you want conference championships to be the quasi first round, then fine. But I would use it more as an elimination than a birth to the next round.

I get your side, but in a scenario where only 4 teams get in, I want to see the best. And conference champions are objectively not always the best. Sure human rankings might be subjective, but there’s also objective stats that would say if tech won the ACC, we are not one of the top teams. So I...

Because you can objectively say that sometimes say conference champions are not one of the top teams in the country? Scenario: team A is ranked 3 and team B is not ranked, and squeaked into the conference championship by winning a bad pod. If team B wins, how do justify team B jumping all the...

I said earlier that it should be a heavy factor. But upsets happen, so if we want the top teams, then you can’t use championships as an automatic qualifier in a 4 team playoff

I will agree that there is some favoritism that can come into play, but when isn’t there going to be when it comes to selection? Hell we could say that for basketball and they have way more teams to pick from Im sorry, but if somebody from the coastal beats wake or whoever from the Atlantic...

Well I’m sure if any of those sports had only a 4 team playoff, then there would be an argument. But right now you honestly cant compare D1 football playoffs to any other sport where there are 64+ teams that make it. If you want to talk about what it should and could be, that’s a different...

But why? Let’s look at the past few years in the pac 12. They didn’t have one team that was deserving to make playoffs. But now if an upset occurs, an even less deserving team makes it? And for this year, you’re telling me anybody in the ACC is one of the top teams? The idea is to get the best...

Are we going to shorten the number of regular season games? Because now you’re asking college teams to play possibly 2-3 extra games? In a time where guys are already sitting out so they don’t get hurt for the draft. Yeah, we don’t see it in playoffs right now, but if a game is starting to get...

Let me push back on the idea of automatic qualifiers for conference champions just a little here. The idea for this playoff system is the best four teams, correct? So let’s say in this past run of Clemson being dominant that somehow one of the upshot’s from our division found a way to upset...

I don’t think we should compare anything we do with Alabama or Satin right now. How much do they spend to have a huge staff? And let’s not act like Satin isn’t also doing the same thing selling the Alabama or himself. How am many Aflac commercials does he do? There’s plenty hours in the day to...

I love the uni, but using the gold smoke to come out with blue jerseys was just mean Edit; probably should have been tipped off by the color balls in the tweet. That’s on me for going straight the the video

Holy crap, I don’t think anybody is happy about what is going on but can we give ONE thread a break from bashing coaching?

I won’t hate the idea if they start playing these games sooner in bowl season instead of waiting a month to start. But all your doing is moving the argument on the 12-14 place teams. With the top teams getting a bye, it also seems like it will be fun watching the first round just for those teams...

I’m going glass half full here. Maybe he is handing the ropes over to Coach Choice. CTC seemed to have that same kind of energy when he played, and maybe DMo thought it was Choice’s time to step into his role of the glue guy (obviously coach won’t give up coaching to be the Chaplin). going to...

If a big 10 team can get into the playoffs with 8 wins, I have absolutely no problem going to a bowl with any wins. Especially when we need/want as much as practice as we can get

So we are just going to turn away a month of practice? Hell, if we finish with a losing record I would argue we would need the practice even more

I would think that this year would actually mean more. Obviously week 1 of this isn’t that important with Not everybody starting but once everybody is playing I think the rankings will actually tell you something. You don’t have as many cupcake games to pad stats and there’s no FCS Southeast to...

ahh thank you.
