Here’s a novel idea … why don’t we wait to see the thing in action before we pronounce it as the ruination or death of college football?

Flame away, but I think just like with NIL and paying players, the biggest reason fans, and particularly old-school fans, are so arse hurt at this is they haven’t been given a voice in all these changes to something they viewed as special and pretty near perfect, and they feel they should have a voice because they’ve been the most passionate and committed and supportive US sports fans on the planet for so many generations.

I understand the argument that this system will breathe more life into the season as 15-20 teams try to qualify down the stretch. It's just difficult for me to get excited as most big schools can post a meh 10-2 season and get in. I also won't we as hyped to tune into something like the Rose Bowl knowing there are two MORE rounds (and, it will be coming off of the first round for some teams). That's a lot to ask of the players and fanbases. CCG should be scrapped at some point, but there is no financial incentive to do that.
