[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 271643, member: 944"] Don't I remember sometime recently when the NCAA (or wa sit ESPN) that promoted the line "Every Game matters?" Having an 8 or 16 team playoff just means the regular season games often DON'T Matter. Ohio State-Michigan this year would not have mattered much with an 8 team (or larger) playoff, both would already have been "in". In the US, we somehow think playoffs are the only way to crown a champion. In Europe, they award two championship trophies each year..one for regular season champ, and one for the playoff champ, and the regular season trophy is (generally conceded to be) the most important of those two. Obviously harder to do that here in college football, but the idea remains the same. I am absolutely battled by anyone who pays goo money to go see a regular season NBA or NHL game. They are, after all, mostly exhibition matches with little real meaning. <sigh> I guess I'm getting' old. These things seem so clear to me.... [/QUOTE]
