I personally still think it's too many games for college kids, but the FCS is sure making it hard. Oh well. I'd love to see WMU make a Cinderella run.

Also, if there were a committee, I think they'd avoid a possible early round re-match of "The Game"






EDIT: I'd switch Michigan and OU.... ensures that if their is to be a re-match, it will be in the semis and not in Columbus and avoids any switching that would rematch them with Penn State in an early round.

Needs an automatic bid for the "Life Champion" as well.

Love it, but the quarters on Dec 23/24 would draw no one at neutral sites and probably be tough to fill hotbeds even if on campus.

I wish they would do 6 like NFL with top 2 getting a bye, but the NCAA loves to be difficult. They love people talking and debating the best teams. Free publicity for them.

The only way I would like to play San Diego State is if we play in San Diego.

I would love this. Not even for argumentative reasons.

It's way more football, and quality games at that.

Every year the story going into March Madness is, "who is going to pull the huge upsets". Could definitely see scenarios where an underdog comes in a pulls a fast one on a higher seed.

If you make the bracket that large, then you need to give WMU a higher seed

Let the regular season record actually mean something for a team like WMU, and if they aren't that good because "they didn't play anyone", then they'll get blown out pretty quickly and no harm no foul

So they gave Bama a Duke bracket?



Damn those brackets are uneven as hell.

Michigan, OSU and Clemson all in the same bracket?

Start by reducing the regular season to 11 games and having no non-bowls played after Thanksgiving weekend.

Then give all conference champions seeds 1-10, like the NFL and seed the six at-large teams 11-16.
