It would weed out the over rated teams. Get really good match ups in final four.

Until the #9 team kills their bowl opponent 57-0.

Im not sure what the answer is at this point. The only team at this point that I think are out that should be in is Ohio State.

This is stupid. Two of the teams didn't belong this year and you want four more that don't either?

Or 6 and the top 2 seeds get byes. That way the regular season is still extremely important because you want the bye.

No we don't....WTF could afford to travel 3 times during December/early January...not to mention the conference championship games in early December. Top 4 rewards great regular seasons...not good ones. You go to 8 and people will be screaming for 16 the the next week. The CFB regular season is the greatest in all of sport for a reason. JMO

Need to reduce regular season games by 2 and all conferences have a championship game. That would weed out and shed more light on the top teams. This would also force Notre Dame to join a conference.

8 teams would be correct number. This number of teams would help the teams that play in a really tough conference.

Not with two losses when there are so many one loss teams. You have to make the regular season important where teams are not just playing for a shot at the playoffs. If you want to make the dance you have to handle business during the season. They lost to Northwester and Oregon so in my opinion Stanford should not be in it.

Ole MIss loss to Memphis and I think Ole Miss is playing as good as anybody in the country right now. The season has to count.

Why? Once you lose a game you aren't deserving of shite. Any team that loses a game shouldn't complain about being left out. We sure as hell don't need dog shite Iowa sneaking in.

This would work and I would be for this. Notre Dame in my opinion should have to be undefeated to even be mentioned for a spot in the playoffs.
