Plz NO 8 team playoff


Jan 13, 2015, 6:49 AM

They'd just muddy it up with SEC teams. You know it. Sure, TCU got slighted but it'll happen. GT would've been left out. They'd find a way to put four BS SEC teams in it that aren't worthy of it. So please, no 8 team playoff. No 2 Alabama teams needed. They don't deserve it. The SEC watched the game on the couch WHERE THEY BELONG. Let's not muddy it up. Please.

I agree. Just leave it at 4. No need to see 5 of the eight teams from the Overrated Conference.

Jan 13, 2015, 7:04 AM

But put a cap on it - no more than 2 teams from any conference.

Exactly. Easy solution.

Eight team playoff is needed and most fair. Otherwise ACC will be left out most years because of bias toward SEC, Big Ten, Big 12...

Since roughly a quarter of all CFB rosters turnover ever year, an eight team playoff with auto bids for the power 5 winners and 3 at large bids (no more than 2 teams in a conf) makes the most sense. That way a committee cant arbitrarily decide who gets in based on who they think had the harder schedule or looked better on the "eye" test. Win your conf and your in everything else is talk.

This is the best solution. Although I do think the top Little 5 champ should get an invite if they are in the top 20. That would leave only two at large bids most years and make ND sweat a little.

Take two teams from each league making it 10 teams


Jan 13, 2015, 8:23 AM

Play wild card with bottom 4 reducing number of teams to 8.
Eliminate conference championship.

The bottom 4 is selected based on strength of league and that is based on inter league record .
No human selection and it is all decided on the field.

If two many games, eliminate an FCS game.

Disagree completely

Having a 4 team playoff when you have 5 power conferences makes no sense.

This would have been amazing. If you want to give G5s a shot then make the 8 seed theirs. That would have been Boise this year.

So Miss St but no GT?


Jan 13, 2015, 8:42 AM

My point has been made.

Re: So Miss St but no GT?


Jan 13, 2015, 8:54 AM

That was made based off of rankings before bowls.

I disagree. Giving teams byes is a massive advantage. It has already been determined that the gap between the 2nd and 3rd ranked teams is very very small. Why give one of those an advantage over the other.

Jan 13, 2015, 9:57 PM

would be the only way eight teams would work.
