Expand the Play Offs

(no message)

I think 6 is best. Top 2 get buys. Power 5 champs plus an at-large

And what are your hopes for the regular season?

No,

Fk the NFL and high school

I'm good with 4 for now. I would rather address the issue of rent-a-wins before considering expanding the playoffs. I believe FBS teams should not be playing FCS teams and that there should be FAR fewer FBS teams.

I would also like to see more standardization regarding the size of conferences and the number of conference games they play.

Ideally, I would like all conferences to be 12 teams, no more than 8 conferences, all play the same number of conference games, and force there to be some real OOC games again. I'm so tired of the first half of the season being a bunch of layups against FCS teams and FBS teams that straight up don't belong in the same league with the big boys.

Fewer rent-a-wins means more major teams playing each other, which means more teams losing, which means fans get to really see how conferences stack up against each other, and it means that likely fewer teams will be "on the bubble" for the playoff.

I think you have to go 6 or 12. Top seeds play at home until you get to the neutral site championship. This retains the importance of the regular season, because teams will strive for the highest seeds to secure a bye and/or home games. Does LSU want to travel to ohio st. in december?

16 team play offs

Man frick that noise. 16 is way too many teams. I think the regular season could still be critical and riveting if they expanded to eight teams. I would hope they never go beyond that.

College should do it. I get it... it’s a money thing, it’s a player health thing, it’s a whatever else thing. Still makes more sense.

if it's about player health, why let the FCS (1-AA) do it? You'd think the extra scholarships and higher budgets (for support staff and trainers, etc) would make it safer for a major college team; LSU vs say, McNeese.

8 teams- 5 Power 5 teams, 1 Group of 5 (must be top 10 in playoff rankings), 2 at large

16 is probably too many, 8 is better. All the Power 5 champions, as long as they have 2 losses or less. If more than 2 losses, they lose their auto bid. The remainder is at large teams.

Heck I might even expand it to 9 teams and make the best Group of 5 team have a play in game with the #8 seed just to give the Group of 5 teams a shot.

I think that would be fair to all.

The committee only has to pick the at large teams, and seed the teams, with the non conference champs never being a top half seed.
