[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 776553, member: 944"] Oh, I am NOT saying that the playoffs "fixed college football". I don't disagree that the playoffs have had some very bad ancillary effects on the sport. By increasing the revenue, the playoffs upped the ante and the major league programs have followed the money, leaving the lesser schools further behind. I just don't think the playoffs were designed to do anything beyond: [LIST=1] [*]increase the revenues (Mission accomplished) ; and [*]provide a clear champion(mission accomplished) [/LIST] So, I think we are simply disagreeing on what the original purpose of adding the playoffs was. Not the effect they have had. I don't believe there was any nobility in the original intent. I believe it was greed, pure and simple. [/QUOTE]
