[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 805602, member: 944"] [LIST=1] [*]I think this proposal would guarantee that ND remains an independent in football. With 12 slots, even as an independent, they really have an excellent chance to be in the Playoffs. And since the Playoffs are ALL about the money, and Notre Dame brings tons of eyeballs, the selection committee will surely invite them as often as they can justify it [*]the whole proposal smells like a way to get more teams (and money) for the $EC and Big Ten. The 'price' they are willing to pay is to 'allow' the Coastal Carolinas of the world to get a chance. But you'll see a lot more of the 4th place SEC team or the 3rd place Big Ten team than you will of Coastal Carolina. [*]It will in fact give a program like GT a better chance to make the playoffs...but in the long run it may be the rich getting richer with more playoff money flowing into the SEC and Big Ten and widening the gap with the ACC and other leagues. [*]I'd rather see an expansion, but one that limits the gold rush of any particular conference getting more than 2 teams in, in order to level the playing field long term. However, the $EC and E$PN will never agree to that.... [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
