"four team playoff" defender profile:

If you still believe in a four team playoff (with some forty bowls), you possess or use one or more of the following:
three inch wide neck ties at least one box of hamburger helper in pantry corduroys 8 barrel engine on blocks somewhere in the yard pea green paint on a wall of a room in your home boxes of analog videos, tapes, and cams you can't get rid of old peach, orange, and cotton bowl pics, emblems, paraphernalia 2.5 gallon tank toilets plastic lawn manger set Maalox in cabinet (that has a mirror swing door) scum ring around tub linoleum floor map books charcoal grill typewriter with correction tape ribbon or any ribbon foil icicles on your Xmas tree two or three ugly sweaters a combover
Quit fighting it. Come on in to the present and accept the inevitable change that is coming.

Or realize that college football isn't just for fan's entertainment and that there aren't 8 teams worthy to be considered for the #1 spot.
Focus first on removing FBS teams from FCS schedules and then talk about the next money making scam for the NCAA.

Anyone who wants an 8 team playoff needs to be castrated to be prevented from reproducing.

Or is an SEC fan who wants a guaranteed 2 teams and a chance at 3 in the playoff. Or a PAC12 fan who could perhaps get the 8th spot.

I think you spelled "eight game playoff" wrong. This year has proven to be the exception with six teams looking worthy of the playoff, but Michigan and UCF are not. Even so, Osu and Uga don't belong either. Four is perfect- both the regular season and bowls retain their value.
Yes, the bowls are important and will never go away. Having a postseason with only a playoff is the NFL, and that is dry toast. The bowls give most fans a postseason and others a huge menu of games to watch over the holidays.

How are the bowls important?
Dec 13, 2018, 6:24 AM
|

They're not attended...they're scarcely watched...top players are sitting out...and the records that get them invited wouldn't have gotten a sniff years ago. They're not important, because they've been reduced to nothing by the CFP. The regular season has been diluted because of the CFP. Crow on and on about 4 being perfect...and you won't have a worthy product to watch within 10-20 years.
If Clemson wasn't fortunate enough to be on the right side of the ledger, so to speak, there isn't a single Tiger fan who would be happy with how all is playing out. To improve and strengthen the overall product, perspective from the 'outside, looking in' is necessary. Not just on the playoff, but how the season has value towards some 'end result'. If that doesn't happen, money is going to begin screaming, rather than talking as it is now. When that happens, college ball is going to shrink. The current path is unsustainable.

So when is this so-called inevitable change going to occur Mr.Know It All? Can you give us at least the year so I will have enough time to get rid of some of those old antiquated things, some of which those of the older generation might prefer, like Hamburger Helper? And my charcoal grill is still on the back porch. And I do have a roadmap, which my Dad taught me how to use when I was 15.

Or maybe you are just someone who believes college football is not a tournament sport and excellence matters. If you prefer tournament football there’s always the NFL where 9-7 teams can win a tournament and get the big trophy. At that point you have killed the sport and any pretense that regular season games matter. Congratulations doooossshhhh nozzle!

What's wrong with a charcoal grill??
Dec 13, 2018, 8:18 AM

If you aren't grilling with charcoal you're not grilling... Takes longer and requires planning but everything tastes better.

Hey don't lump the charcoal grill in with that other stuff
Dec 13, 2018, 9:48 AM

It may not be as easy or convenient as a gas grill, but you can't beat the flavor of a charcoal grill. I wish i still had time to use one more often.
