Another Deptula gem just now

Walt's take just now -" We need a 8 team playoff because this system is not working. We can't have Alabama and Clemson every year in the championship game ".

Walt is really griping and moaning about the 4 team playoff. Its a "system with no rules" according to him ". Excuse me but we don't need someone around who is even in a round about way trying to delegitimize in any way the 2 titles we have won since college football went to the 4 team playoff.

With all the controversy over the BCS method of crowning a champion and the beauty contest voting after the bowl games, when do you think the last legitimate, deserving champion was crowned? This is what Walt needs to be asked if he doesn't like the current system.

I like an 8 team playoff so that Clemson can basically be guaranteed a spot every year, even with a loss, plus it gives a non-Power 5 team a chance

I think people are missing the big issue here. The teams cannot be decided in a boardroom. 5 power five champs are in regardless of record. Then the 3 at large teams. Top rated non power 5 team will be the 8th seed provided they are undefeated and ranked in the top 12 of 3 major poles. AP, coaches, and a BCS typewriter formula generated by a computer. You plug in a public set of numbers and it is what it is for that team. Then they can have their little committee seed the other teams after that. Max of 2 per any conference. If you are a powerhouse team dont lose in your title game. Simple as that. If a 8-5 team pulls an upset they are in. They earned it. This committee behind closed doors BS has to stop.

It would be 3-4 SEC teams in every year. No thank you.

When we start having 5,6,or 7 teams undefeated @ playoff time then I say yes. Clemson has been in 4 of the last 5 playoffs so there's nothing wrong with the way it is right now!! GO TIGERS!! Win and you're IN

Walt again just now "Titles mean more in an expanded playoffs and less in a smaller playoffs." Yep Clemson has 2 lessor national titles according to Walt .They just got them so easy because it wasn't an 8 team playoff .

It's a good thing Walt wasn't around when MLB had 2 leagues a bad no divisions. The winner of the NL played the winner of the AL. 7 games max in the post season.

enough is enough. If you play on a great team you pay for your scholarship by playing 15 games. If you go to Carolina you get your scholarship for attending 12 games and only playing in 4. 12 games and a conference championship are more than enough to determine a playoff roster. If you can't earn the berth in 12 games then you don't make the final 4. We could have a 64 team playoff including both the FCS and FBS. That way Sister Sadie's school for wayward girls could upset Alabama in the first round. Championship Winner could to be the first team to go 18 - 0.

I said a few weeks ago that I thought Walt had crossed into "Dan Scott " territory , meaning you say one too many dumb and annoying things about Clemson then you need to pack your bags .Didn't Mickey bring Walt in back when ? I wouldn't mind it at all if Mickey told him to hit the bricks .

Agreed! Enough is Enough! Its a PLAYOFF not a Tournament. I'm sorry if (insert your favorite team here) got left out. Shoulda won more games! If they go to 8 teams, they may as well go to "Double-Elimination Pool Play" so no one will know what in the name of Chicken Feet is going on.

Agree 100% . Losses mean something right now. I don't want any debate about a 2 loss team winning the national championship.

Which year does Walt think the best team in the country didn’t get into the CFP? Which year does Walt think the best team in the country didn’t win the CFP?

For the Power 5 Conferences, 4 teams u Is the way to go. The 4 best teams get in because there is very little room for error. If there was an 8 team playoff, the first 12 games would have less importance because Clemson, Bama, UGA, O31O, OK, Oregon and etc. would know they are pretty much guaranteed to get in with one loss.
Clemson may not have made the playoffs in 2016 after losing to Pitt if Michigan and Washington had not lost the same day? That kept the Tigers ahead of them. 3 of the 4 playoff teams had one loss in 2016 and Clemson had played a brutal schedule.
