Against it.

 

[cocanes]

Yeah. We nowhere in there even of expanded to 16 with this mfing playcalling

 

[JMG]

It's a great idea.

It will give schools like us a chance & that's all you need to help that much more in recruiting.

Also, if the first round is a home-playoff game at the top 4 seeds campus's, then after that you go to the final 4 it would be great for revenue and viewership.

 

[borncane]

No reason to be against it.

 

[Fuck Yo Couch]

Should be 6 teams at the most.

 

[AutoCANE]

8 teams is the right #, it allows you to incorporate all of the “New Year’s 6” bowl games, it just makes sense.

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

6 is perfect. Top 2 get a bye

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

When have you ever watched a college football season and thought there were eight teams good enough to be the national champion?

 

[Memnon]

It should be 6 teams like the NFL.

All the P5 Champs & one at large bid for the best of the rest (undefeated G5 champ) top 1 & 2 seeds get a bye.

If we had 8 teams this year, it would be
1. Bama
2. Clemson
3. Notre Dame
4. Oklahoma
5. UGA
6. Oh St
7. Michigan
8. UCF

Out of that 8, UGA & Mich don't deserve an opportunity to play for a National championship, they don't belong in the playoffs because they lost their conferences convincingly & both had losses vs playoff teams. Mich lost to Notre Dame & UGA lost to Bama, along with bad losses vs LSU (for UGA) & to Oh St (for Mich).

 

[nystateofmind]

It would devalue the regular season but also be quite exciting.

I’m conflicted.

 

[Lokest]

Ok I'll ask this question once more. What teams outside the top 4 do people need to see play again?

So five SEC teams and Notre Dame every year.

6 teams means someone gets a bye. No byes imo.

8 team playoff is good with me.

No byes for anybody.

It’s not about this year, it’s about every year.

 

[LustNCanes]

More ways to get the SEC teams in. Might as well, we can’t even get through the coarstal.

 

[Memnon]

So five SEC teams and Notre Dame every year.

I said all P5 champs, meaning ACC, B1G, Big XII, Pac-12 & SEC champions, plus one at large for an undefeated G5 champ.

Using that formula there would never be 2 SEC teams in the playoffs.

what about a 2 or 3 loss conference champion and a runner-up in a conference that has only 1 loss ? then what ?
