[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 984976, member: 4334"] And this is why once the public sees this 12 team system being dominated by the SEC and BIG we’ll get another expansion into the 24 team range. This has how it always works. We all know about it now because we love this sport. But 97% of the population will wake up next year and see that out of 12 teams invited that 9 or 10 will be from 2 conferences. Sure, the SEC and BIG are much smarter than the other conferences which is why they set it up this way. When the playoff games prove wildly successful with TV ratings they’ll agree to expand which will get those 2 conferences more teams in but will also allow other schools normally left out to get in on those years they get to 9 wins (think the GT’s, Wake’s, Arizona, BYU, etc). And, of course, my premise is that once you get a real playoff, that upsets will prove what a farce we’ve been living under for decades. For decades, the Bama’s, UGA’s, and Oklahoma’s have played 3 game seasons to prepare for and focus on. Once you make Kirby plan for more than just Florida, Auburn, and the SECCG you’ll see them lose more games. And injuries will play a huge part with the addition of 4-5 more games. Just like we see in every other sport with a legit playoff system, you’ll see the fake dynasties built on invitations disappear. Sure, Bama and UGA will be in the mix every year but they won’t win it at nearly the same pace. [/QUOTE]
