I mean seriously...how many seasons are there more than 12 teams that could make some playoff noise?

"making noise" isn't the point. The point should be crowning the best team in america.There aren't anywhere even remotely CLOSE to 12 teams that after 13 games played can seriously pretend they have a right to call themselves the best in the country.

In the 10 years we had a 4-team playoff, there were rarely and I mean RARELY instances where anyone ranked past 6th could have a valid claim. Doubling that all the way to 12 is just ludicrous. Not to meniton the fact you'll inevitably have rematches (prior to championship games I mean) and autobids beinig dumb.

I think most seasons even 12 will be a stretch for at least a couple of the teams who get in.

Definitely right on that. You will almost surely have some teams wiht 3 losses make the playoffs. If you've lost 23% of the games played prior to the palyoffs you don't deserve to be in period.
