[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 831890, member: 4334"] The playoffs have no legitimacy now because only 4 teams make it and we have 5 conferences with other good teams outside those 5 like Coastal, UCF, ND, and Cincy. The only legitimate playoff is an expanded version. But college football has never been about legitimacy. It’s always been about money. For decades the bowls controlled the money and they let journalism majors pick the national champs. Now TV controls the money and we let committees pick the national champion. I agree that chaos is fun like we see in the ACC ever since FSU’s domination ended. Clemson had a nice run lately though. Eventually they’ll expand it enough where the national champ will be legitimate and every team has a fair shake. In the meantime, we’ll continue to let pre-season polls be the barometer to start from and a closed door committee determine their version of legitimacy at the end. It’s no bueno. But if UGA gets left out because of politics of the SEC I’ll be laughing my backside off. [/QUOTE]
