If it means more money the schools could care less if it’s good for the game.

Dumb. Just go 6 with two first round byes. #9-12 has no reason to be on the field with 1-4 in December. Clear separation by then

CFP going to 12 teams

I used to hate this idea b/c it diminishes the regular season losses. However, the SEC is too damn hard these days compared to the other teams that have the same access to the playoffs with shitty schedules. The bowls have become boring. At least this playoff will give us more quality games to watch.

Can’t wait until people start complaining because the 13th ranked team was left out

CBK's time to shine. LSU won at least one natty in each format.

Terrible idea. Can anyone really argue that the best teams haven’t won since the 4 team playoff was put in place?

There’s almost always 3 really good teams and one stinker.

Bama
LSU/Ohio State/Clemson/UGA
-LARGE gap-
ND/OU/Washington/Cincy/Oregon/FSU/Michigan/Michigan State

It’s so simple to keep the conferences relevant. Power 5 championship game is 10 teams plus 2 highest ranks outside power 5 (there is your 12 team playoff) play in for a 6 team playoff. Rank those 6 and you have your tournament.

It makes too much sense, so they will never do that.

Let the conferences themselves fight over how they choose the championship game. That gives the polls or “selection committee” only two spots to frick up (with teams that don’t have a fighting chance to win anyway).

Then at the very least the final four should be a lot more exciting than the current four-team playoff format, because the best four teams will be there, instead of the best three with one stinker who got in by default, because they were the conference champion with the perceived “better resume.”

That’s what’s funny about it. When the CFP started, the complaint was Bama always being in. Well, congratulations! Now, they are even more guaranteed to have a spot.

Fantastic news, but there's no reason they shouldn't be able to figure the money out & implement this much sooner than 2026.

I would have loved to have seen the ‘01 team in an expanded playoff.

Yet I'm sure the media members who shite all over the BCS for being unfair won't say a word if a 3-loss Florida slips into the playoff over a 1-loss Memphis.
