So why do we need 8 teams?

The next runs have not made a strong case today.
OSU didn't cry about missing out, just handled business.

Why do we need a committee?

We need 8 because my team didn't get in.
But seriously I want 6; top two get a bye, #3 and #4 host home games.

Why? When do 5 and 6 ever deserve a chance at a title?
Posted on 1/1/19 at 10:44 pm to SprintFun
6 teams is the most logical.
Top 2 probably makes the final and deserves a bye go avoid 15 game seasons
Plus P5 in with 1 wild card

Exact opposite.
No way you can sell me on two teams getting a bye. No way you can sell me on 1 wildcard when all other teams won their conference.

They usually don’t. I’m cool with BCS computers giving us the top 2

5 power conferences = 5 conference champions get an automatic bid. Fill out the rest (whether a 6 team or 8 team playoff).

The system led to the Top 2 teams playing for the championship, which is what it was designed to do. Not really sure how people could really gripe this year.

Yeah byes make absolutely zero fricking sense with targeting ejections and injuries not to mention a month off to prepare.

Says the fan of the #4 team who won last year.

Why does every level of football have a football playoff beyond 4 teams and not the NCAA Div. 1-A?
Posted on 1/1/19 at 10:54 pm to Muahahaha
Because insanity.
It's entitrely possible a 5 P5 teams finish with the same record, yet there are only 4 spots. Nevermind independents like BYU or Notre Dame.
The system was fubar from day one.

Because there are 5 power conferences with no definitive way to say which champion is better without head to head play

So if the only way to determine if one team is better than the other is by head to head play, then we would have to allow the conference champions to play a round robin against each other to determine national champion.

Still have to factor in Notre Dame/non power 5 teams. 8 is the perfect number
