Correct. Like NFL, teams will now be built to make the playoffs, then to make a run in the playoffs.Of course the landscape changed - $$$. lol
The point is it appears the landscape planning did not include the non-football student athletes, actually non-football sports overall, and frankly, many of the traits of college football that made it special in and of itself. IMO college and conference administrators are ceding control over their entire athletic departments to the whims of TV execs.
We're going to see a world where the college football regular season is of decreased importance, fewer rivalries will be played, conferences will try to determine who will play in its conference championship when its members will play so few similar conference opponents leading to controversy over who gets to play for the conference title, and the possibility of the further NFL-ization of college football with elite teams sitting starters in their last regular season game because they have clinched a conference championship game berth and playoff berth due to the expansion to 12 team playoff.
That being said, when are the Canes getting the invite to the Big 10 or SEC? It's badly needed.
Expect to see top 2-3 elite teams take a last regular season game off with starters.
