The sport is designed to come down to the top 4 teams playing for it all. In that respect, it works as designed. I certainly enjoyed the sport this season.

This is why I hesitate to open up paying players openly for any reason, it's going to be the same schools willing to get the top players "paid" whatever it takes and the lesser schools not willing to match which could excerbate this.

I get the players feeling slighted not getting a piece of the pie as athletic departments and coaches get rich, but man, could make the sport so unbalanced to the point we basically have to create new divisions because the mid-majors and smaller P5's have no way to compete really with that and suffer even further as a result.

It’s alarming. The top recruits are funneled into these same schools and to other mostly southeast schools. It’s not good for national interest. I don’t want college football to be a regional sport.

It’d be helpful if the Pac12 would start trying again. Particularly USC. Real bad sign when California talent won’t even stay over there.

At a time when football is being played less by kids and the sport is concerned about head injuries, it’s bad to have the same schools in the playoff every year.

It’s not that different than it’s ever been. CFB has always been the domain of a relatively select few. Some new program may enter the scene while a traditional power slips. Clemson is the new FSU or Miami right now but before FSU and Miami entered the scene they were nothing. Texas and USC are down right now but they’ll be back at some point.

There will never be parity between conferences or within conferences.
