re: Give Your take/Opinion/Thoughts on what you think college football needs to do -Playoffs

Ironically, I think the best way to set up a larger playoff, would also be to roll back conference alignment to the mid-early 80's layout.

10 team SEC, Big Ten, Pac 10.
Restore the SWC and Big 8. ACC, if you want to leave Florida State in fine.
Recreate the Big East, but this time stick Penn State there (they were always considered the Beast of the East).

That's 7 major conference/groupings that could produce top seeds; then you have "the major independents" with Notre Dame, Miami, BYU, etc in the mix with the little conferences.

If you go 8 teams, you take one (the champ) from each conference, with the one at large as the final team.

If you go 12 or 16, that gives you more option to bring in a second team from a conference, and a Cinderella.

Would probably produce the most entertaining playoff scenario, pretty similar to the way the bowls were, with the addition that the winners play the next weekend.
