The SEC, the first conference to have a conference championship game, should be the first conference to do away with the conference championship game. Once college football goes to a playoff system, playing this game will only weaken the resume and rankings of one of its teams. This year, without the SECCG, the SEC would have had 3 of the 4 teams in the playoffs. With the SECCG, we would only have 2. I expect that every year, the SEC, by playing the SECCG, will be knocking one of its teams out of the playoffs.

What ya think?

Georgia would have been left out even without the SECCG. Their resume was bad.

Florida and Alabama would have been the same two SEC teams.

I agree 100 %. complete horseshite. IF they are going to make you be the winner of your conference to get into the 4 team playoff they will have to make teams like Notre Dame join a conference and they will have to force all conferences to have a championship game.

They need to go to an 8 team playoff and take 1-8 in my opinion.

Too late, Big 12 already dumped its championship game. Look, there is no way the ptb will ever let the SEC or any other conference flood the playoffs.
