My dish network encountered faulty signal. Thank you for your service.

I don't think Ohio State wants any part of what we would do to them.

If this were the actual format I think, that K-State definitely and either Michigan or Notre Dame gets bumped for Minnesota and Memphis.

There is absolutely no reason not to have this type of playoff. College football is so weird
-
8 team still makes the most sense to me, but I’d take 16 for sure.
-
The current format sure seems geared toward protecting big brand names.

8 is the right number.

That's pretty much what happened to TCU a few years back. It's big team names only; but with a larger format we could have some very good G5 and small P5 teams in the CFP.

That bracket is beautiful. Seems like this would be a great quality of life improvement for everyone . . .
-
I'm cool with 8, but unless the Big Boys actually decide to break away it should be just like March Madness imo. Only difference is home games for the first couple of rounds or so.
10 conference champs and either 2, 4 or 6 at large berths. No special allowances for Notre Dame either. They get in a conference or have to be an at large.

Too many games

LOL, never ever ever.
-
Best case scenario right now for us is 8 tbh. That bracket would be brutal, but would love to be apart of it tbh, who wouldn’t?

Eliminate non-con games. Boom! Done. Mostly glorified exhibition games anyway. The chaos that would ensue due to lack of inter-conference data points would just add to the fun.
On a more serious note, that would probably destroy revenue in a big way.
On a similarly serious note (as the last note), it blows my freakin' mind that we are #16 in the CFP rankings even after a couple of no-show games vs. OSU and Baylor. Awesome. The future is bright, amigos.
-
go to 8, all P5 conf champs get in automatically, and each conf can decide how to crown that. then we can keep round robin, and either keep champ game or end it. SEC has an unfair advantage currently in that they only play 8 conf games, in a 14 team league, so it's no wonder they have 5 of the top 11 teams in the country right now. 8 teams would also add a lot of stability to the Big 12, best path to the playoff.

Doesn't the FCS do this already and its not an issue?
-
Well people don’t really watch the FCS playoffs. So from that perspective it’s an issue.
-
I hadn’t thought of people not watching 15 playoff games vs 3.
-
I'll always favor the idea of all 10 confy champs making the playoffs. The super low seeds would never upset a true contender, but the middling playoff teams would go down from time to time and it would be awesome.
-
not a fan of expanding the playoff
i really don't think it gives you a better champion and would kill Bowl structure
i personally love the weeks upon weeks of obscure mid week matchups (seriously)
-
Four teams is just not nearly enough. Eight would be FAR better, but I'd love to see 16...
At 16, you legitimately include every team that has a reasonable chance to get hot and win it.
Having four regions with four 1-4 seeds similar to how march madness is set up with the top seeds getting home field for round one would be pretty cool also.
What sucks about four, in my opinion, is the fact that there are typically 3-4 teams left out that have a legitimate beef for grabbing the 4th spot.
:dubious:
-
Could even make a 12 team work with top 4 getting a bye. Run it like the NFL playoffs. 11 meaningful games. Would be GLORIOUS.
-
i think 8 is the right number, only adding one extra game, take the p5 champs and the top non-p5 ranked team and a couple at large teams. everyone in the p5 will have a clear path to get into the playoff, if you didn't it's because you didn't win your conference.

ChIPPS solved this ages ago

I think that's where I'm at.
Last season would have been.

24 in the CFP, this calms me down. Real being real I was pissed about the coaches and media polls. Although dropping 8 spots after losing by 3, on the road, to the 19th ranked team is crap.
-
Holy crap, Baylor dropped a spot, wow.
-
Yeah it’s weird that Texas jumps so high by beating us yet we drop so low by losing to Texas. That said I don’t disagree with #24 based on what we’ve done so far.
-
Us being ranked at all still surprises the hell out of me tbh. I couldn’t believe we were #16 last week, but I kept my mouth shut to not jinx us. I couldn’t believe it. Just happy we’re somehow here tbh.
