If you’re No. 1 Alabama, the good news is you get a bye. The bad news is you don’t get to host a home game (but 5-8 do) and your fans have to travel to four straight neutral sites, starting with the conference championship.

Those frickign neutral site playoff games are going to be empty arse stadiums for the most part

Not many people have the want, nor the monetary means to do 4 straight road games

More on the 12-team rec: Playoff bracket would follow the rankings, with no modifications made to avoid rematches of teams that may have played during the regular-season or are from the same conference. The bracket would remain in effect throughout the playoff (no re-seeding).

They will have to be strategic. Atlanta and Mercedes Benz might be one of the biggest winners here. Especially if the SEC championship game remains intact. Imagine two big games in Atlanta in a span of about three weeks. Sites like the Orange Bowl and the Fiesta could be destined for destitute.
