I think that the current 4 team format has some legit flaws, but what you pointed out in the sad truth. If the playoff expands to 6 or 8 teams


I am perfectly fine with them expanding to 6 teams with conference champion being a requirement.

I would like to see the top 2 seeds get a bye. The top 4 seeds each get a playoff home game. Then we play the NC at a neutral site. That would be 10 times better than what we have now. It solves the majority of the subjective eye test problem by forcing the winning of a conference and it creates a desire for a strong schedule to get the better seeding.

I don’t believe in the non conference champion in the playoffs or NC as it cheapens the whole season.

Respectfully I couldn't possibly disagree more for reasons that should not have to be explained.

Assuming you are an LSU football fan, and lets say that LSU loses in the SEC Championship game to Georgia by a FG or less. To be clear you would be okay with Oregon taking the fourth spot in the playoffs over LSU even with their loss to Auburn, and the Tiger's impressive "resume" be damned?

Lord I hope all this foolish talk isn't motivated by a fear of having to face Alabama again.

8 teams would legit be perfect.

Have the first round the week before Christmas on Campus.

How great would it be to play Ohio State/OU//Oregon in a first round home game in DV in 50-55 degree weather.
