And your model still sucks. The worst thing about this stupid 12-team playoff is the reserved top seeds for conference champions.
The College Football Playoff needs to expand
- Thread starter st3f0
- Start date
ok 2 conferences then idiot...learn to grasp the bigger concept in life
Ive never understood it either.
“Hey! This college football stuff is great and unique! Lets change it.”
Exactly. Had ohio state beat michigan, oregon would have had to beat ohio state three times possibly to win the natty. Absolutely stupid.
dumb ass, the B1G and sec need to sheet, piss or get off the pot...this slow grind to 2 conferances is foul at best...if you want the 2 conferance mini nfl...then do it allready....and save all the beeecthing...and wasting folks time...
Your incoherent, subliterate rambling is tiresome. You’re arguing with your own submoronic imagination.
Do people realize they don't have to watch the first round? What is the downside to an extra weekend of meaningful CFB?
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
Traditionalists. Using emotions rather than logic.
The game has changed. Transfer and NIL means there aren’t just 3 teams that can win it. There’s probably 8-12 each year.
If you are talking about reducing the number of teams that get into the volleyball tournament and changing the selection process then your logic would make sense. But as it is you are comparing apples to oranges.
Conferences all want the chance to get a taste of playoff dough. Most years the last 3-4 teams aren’t going to be particularly competitive, but they can hang a playoff banner. The expanded playoff number plus the reality of the transfer portal should produce more competitive play in these first games in the coming years. It’s just going to be harder for the top teams to hoard talent.
I have always thought 8 was the right amount of teams. Either that or 16 because teams having a bye while the other team plays a top caliber opponent is an unfair advantage. The reason I think 8 is better than 16 is because realistically, there aren't 16 teams with a chance to win in it all. Usually on 3 or 4 but if you start with 8 you could still have the conference champions, whether its 4 or when it was 5, plus have room for a couple of at large bids for a Cinderella and those excellent teams. The seedings this year were completely stupid. Does anyone really believe that Boise or ASU are deserving of a top seed and bye in the first round?
For some reason i get the feeling that the rich will get richer they will find away around the 105 and hoard more top players
So it takes 3 weeks for the NCAA basketball tournament to finish..
It’s going to take 4 weeks to finish the CFP. Football has more game planning from one opponent to the next not to mention the physicality of the game alone..
Basketball tournament plays two games with in 4 days and there is one day to prepare for the next game.
Expanding CFP is ridiculous.

Going from 12 to 16 won’t add another round/week
Anything more than that obviously will
Still takes a month to play it, more games more of a chance for key players getting injury’s making more difficult to move on winning the championship.
16 teams would allow more 3 loss teams involved that DEI.
Reason why the regular season should mean something..
Just because the NFL has 9-8 team making the playoffs doesn’t mean CPF needs 16 teams.
