I love your idea for making college football's regular season into a meaningless shitfest like college basketball.

Oh wait, it sucks.

LSU had their chance.

Terrible idea. If you want to make the playoffs, you have to play well all year long.

You'd have to regardless.

I already miss the BCS


Why???

The BCS formula was 2/3 human polls.

We'll eventually go to an 8 team playoff. Conference champs in the power 5 conferences get an automatic bid and three at-large bids. Then we can all stop arguing.

What makes the most sense is having all the conference champions play in a playoff to determine winner. They would just need to add another game for conferences without championship games.

Could not disagree more. Four teams is plenty. I wouldn't want to have to win 3 or 4 more games after our SEC schedule. That would be ridiculous.

Makes OOC games completely meaningless. Team could drop two OOC games and two in conference and still make the playoffs.

OP is 100% right. Anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot and probably leave games at half

NOt just no, but frick frickITY frick frick frick NO!

IMO, 4 is okay, but anymore is fricking ridiculous.

I"m not into second chances. I like the college season more than the NFL because EVERY game has major implications.

If the Broncos were to have an injury or just frick up and lose 2 in a row, would it even matter? No, because they'll get their shite together and wait for the playoffs.

IF we have to do more than 4 team playoffs, then I'm all about conference winners only getting in. Have the 5 major conferences and pick 1 from the little conferences and give the top 2 teams a bye week.

Win your fricking conference. If Ole Miss wins out and Bama wins out, it makes Bama's loss to Ole miss meaningless.

A 12 team CFB playoff means I (and many other people) won't even give a frick or tune in until the last 2 weeks of the season.

Playoffs make for a real champion not paper champions



I believe only conference champions should make the playoffs. If you're a real champion, you can win your fricking conference, let alone your division.

I guess the NCAA does not give a shite about FCS, Div II, and Division III players since they have been in a 16 team playoff since forever.

Any team that gets the shite beat out of them 41-7 and loses at home that same season does not deserve a 2nd chance.

Spoken like the fan of a team that only has to face 1 or 2 ranked teams in their conference all year and doesn't have to win a conference championship game.

That same team beat your team in your stadium. And come December they may only be the 4th or 5th best team in our conference. But hey, as long as you can beat Big Game Bob and No D Baylor, you should deserve to make the playoff, right?
