Playoffs are gay. Way to go guys, lets just make it the NFL where you can lose 9 games yet theoretically still win the Super Bowl.

ETA: What is that, the college football equivalent of 5-7?

Couldn't just leave a decent enough system alone. Just had to go improve it by making it shitty.

Do you really think this will be an issue for the BCS?

A grand total of 1 team has ever made the NFL playoffs with 9 losses. 5-7 in college would not be anywhere close to being 1 of the 4 highest ranked conference winners. I do agree that the regular season should be more important and systems like the NFL where 37.5% of the league makes the playoffs, does diminish the regular season (BTW 37.5% of D1 is 45 teams, no one has proposed a playoff that big.

I've defended the BCS because the regular season becomes very important, but last year both proved and disproved that. I don't think a 4 team playoff diminishes the regular season, at least no more than allowing a team a rematch after losing at home to a higher ranked team.

fricking THIS. Congrats, retards. Just like the NCAA March Madness started with 16 and went to 68, in 10 years NCAA football will be a watered down 32 team field. Nothing like ruining a kick arse regular season so a bunch of 8-4 teams can demand their right at the playoff table.

Do people really think this solves anything? Now the bitching gets worse, so more and more teams will get included. frick this.
