16 team playoff?

4 teams is all that is needed.

8 teams. No conference locks bullcrap. Current BCS rankings, top 8 period. 1 v 8, 2v7, etc.

if there was an 8 team playoff my life would be better

get the big time ones to sponsor the playoff games.

playoff system would be great, the main concern is losing all the sponsors of the bowl games, then lessening the value of the regular season, however i would love to see a playoff system, there would be some great matchups.

there can still be sponsors to each round of the bowls. it can be like the 4 games in the nfl leading to the conference championships and super bowl.

the regular season really wouldn't lose much value, and this way an 11-1 or 10-2 team can still play for the championship

16 team will never happen

Doesn't need to be 16 teams. I can comfortably say that teams ranked below 8 or 10 are not worthy of a national championship

Get rid of pre season rankings and I agree with this.

Yes.. I agree with you

What devalues the regular season more:
A. (current BCS format) Losing one game and knowing the rest of your season is for fun, not that important, no real implications left. Saying things like, "I'll be happy with 9-3" and "we can still get a decent bowl"
Or
B. (playoff scenario) losing one game and knowing the rest of your games are still important and you can still scrap your way into a playoff even if 4 or 5 other teams go undefeated.

the NCAA does not fully recognize the BCS champ. This is where the "MBCSNC" cones in to play... See other thread about it

You have to have 16 teams to have it recognized by the NCAA. But you could always run the first two rounds in the weeks following the conference championship games, freeing up 12 of the 16 to play in bowls.
