[QUOTE="billga99, post: 857757, member: 1618"] The FCS has a 24 game playoff currently. That includes 8 national seeds who get a bye in the first round. That means up to 5 rounds for one of the non seeded teams. But the reality is two of the national seeds (two of the top eight teams) are highly likely to make the championship game...so 4 rounds. I could see the playoffs eventually getting to that level but I think the 12 team playoffs (or at the least 8 teams) is the next step. My personal preference is to move to 8 teams with 5 Power 5 champions getting automatic bids (I do think the Big 12 would remain that status since they have added very qualified Group of 5 teams with BYU, UCF, and Cincinnati), Group of 5 if they are rated in the Top 10 for the 6th bid and 2 wildcards (or 3 if the Group of 5 is not in the Top 10). That makes the champions of the Power 5 conference worth a lot more and keeps any conference from getting too many bids (many primarily SEC and secondarily Big 10). [/QUOTE]
