While I kind of
agree, you are NEVER IMO going to see the kind of upsets in the football playoff you see in the basketball tourney. The final 4 are almost always going to be the teams you expected to be there.
I mean like 24 of 34 semifinal games n the 4 team playoff were double digit wins.
We may very likely see the 8 seed vs the 7 or 6 seed n the title game this year though. So if you were gonna leave it at 6 it had to be the best 6. None of this cupcake champion getting a top 4 bid crap.
Thanks to the playoff committee for this system and to all the fans who clamored for it. The first five games have been tremendous.
Caveman is 100% correct, almost everyone wanted an expanded playoff. It gave more teams a chance to get in. Now that we have an expanded playoff, the 13,14,15 crowd is saying 12 isn't enough and the other group is saying it's too many because of the blowouts. Just another case of no matter what you do you are not going to make everyone happy. Go to 16 teams, take the best 16 team no matter the conference and play. If 16 doesn't want embarrassed you better have a plan.
But the bowl system is a broken junk pile. I say make it 16. Then do another NIT type tournament with 16 teams and do away with or incorporate into bowl games. I think these players should have to sign contracts that require them to finish the post season.
At least bowls give a lot of teams a game. Your system gives just sixteen schools 1-4 games leaving everyone else out.
Again, this idea that all sporting championships need to be decided in the same way is not true. Who cares about March Madness?
Or, maybe, question the method of seeding?
Oregon, OSU, UGA, and Texas were the four best teams this year. The fact Oregon is playing OSU in this next round is truly pathetic for college football fans.
I've been doing that non stop and think most national and regional analysts have too. Look for the rules to change asap on the dumb bye rules. Rank them 1 to 12 and you may get better games. May.
6 teams or 4 teams would be best, but I’m sure the decision making is only based on $$$.
No, it gives 32 teams... more than enough for bowls. A secondary tournament would be more interesting than random bowls in Birmingham and Memphis that no one cares about. Sorry guys... the old vein of people that actually cares about the bowls has nearly died out. Gotta do something different.
What is rediculous is the 2 or 3 throw away games in the regular season. The mark stoops special playing mac schools and little sisters of the poor is pathetic.
