The College Football Playoff needs to expand

[BringBackRoyal]

thats fine, in my model of 4 conferences only 4 teams would be in the playoffs

And your model still sucks. The worst thing about this stupid 12-team playoff is the reserved top seeds for conference champions.

 

[BringBackRoyal]

Is 64/68 too many for the other sports?

Yes. Next.

 

[GBRforLife1]

If anything yesterday showed me that we need fewer teams. Not a single close game.

Or their selection process needs to be changed.

Making a judgement off the worst teams is not a sound process.

I'm sorry, you lost me...

ok 2 conferences then idiot...learn to grasp the bigger concept in life

 

[redwine65]

I'm not even sure why tenn was in the playoff

Why do people insist on taking college football, the greatest sports category in existence, built on being unique. Built on having a regular season that matters. And try to change it into something that resembles a lesser sport? The nfl sucks. The nfl has 32 teams. The nfl has parity. Those things don’t exist in college football. There is no way to make college football resemble the nfl in format. And we shouldn’t want it to. The debates, controversy and flawed system have made college football what it is. Stop trying to change it and embrace it. Everything they’ve done has made it worse. 12 teams is stupid. Oregon already beat Ohio State, Penn state and Boise. Georgia already beat Texas. End this. Give us Georgia vs Oregon, winner take all. Make the regular season great again.

Ive never understood it either.

“Hey! This college football stuff is great and unique! Lets change it.”

Ohio state already lost to Oregon. Why do they get another shot? If you’re better, win the first time. Rematches in college football are stupid. Who did Ohio state play that Oregon didn’t? Indiana? Pft. Who cares? Make the regular season matter. They already played. Oregon won. You shouldn’t get a do over. Add to that Oregon is undefeated. Beat 3 quarter final teams. And Ohio state lost to Michigan. They blew it. I don’t care who would be favored in a single game. I care about who showed up every week and handled their business. Oregon did. Ohio state didn’t. This system of 12 teams does little to reward that.

Exactly. Had ohio state beat michigan, oregon would have had to beat ohio state three times possibly to win the natty. Absolutely stupid.

[oldjar07]

I absolutely hate byes in playoff formats, so that's the only reason I would support 16.

Your incoherent, subliterate rambling is tiresome. You’re arguing with your own submoronic imagination.

 

[Bruce1981]

12 was stupid but it was clearly just to "get it started"

These first round games were amazing even though they sucked. They are going to go to 16, it is going to be ****ing awesome and it is going to become a huge gambling thing like March Madness.

It's gonna blow. It's gonna be for casuals and gambling degenerates.

[Huskers123456]

Do people realize they don't have to watch the first round? What is the downside to an extra weekend of meaningful CFB?

 

[SLOHusker]

most years, college football only needs two teams. Oregon vs Georgia is all we needed this year.

There is a very good chance neither of those teams makes it past the next round, especially Georgia. The playoff is working even if there are some early blowouts and the seeding needs to be based on the final ranking, not conf championships.
I would expand it to 16 teams with no byes, and quite honestly we ought to just drop conf championship games. The teams with the best record in their massive conferences are the champions. Why do we need to potentially see Georgia-Texas a third time, and Georgia's starting QB was injured playing in a conf championship. With the playoff in place those extra games just do more harm than good
