[QUOTE="Southpawmac, post: 805860, member: 4561"] And we’ve arrived full circle back to my original comment. The whole reason I made the original comment was because there is no difference between football and basketball. The best teams, regardless of where they finish in their conference, deserve a shot at the title. I haven’t advocated for a 68 team football tournament. I’ve advocated that, and this is using the example that I originally replied to, a team ranked fourth in the country but is also fourth in their conference deserves to be in the 12 team format. A 12 team format should include the best conference champions and the best remaining teams regardless of where they finished in their conference. Nearly every other sport in college and nearly every pro league has a format that allows the best teams that didn’t win their conference/division/etc a chance to still win the title. For some reason people think that college football needs to be the exception and that expanding the playoffs will ruin everything, but it obviously won’t because it hasn’t ruined basketball/baseball/golf/volleyball/tennis etc. [/QUOTE]
