At the very least, they need to remove the automatic byes for conference champs and just turn it into automatic berths into the playoffs.

Top four seeds would be Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Notre Dame/Penn State and the first-round games would be much more entertaining.

They just picked the wrong teams. They gave teams spots that didn’t play a difficult schedule.

college kid from texas gets shook and plays a bad half on the road in a 20 degree whiteout at one of the hardest places to play in football.

what part of that doesn't exemplify college football to you?

Holy short sample size ,Batman.

How about we wait for the other two games before blowing our load?

There were stinkers,. plenty of them, when it was just 4.

This board is full of idiots who lobby for less football.

It's the first year. They'll get it straightened out

The 4 team has had some stinkers. I'm willing to give it more than 1.5 games.

Hopefully the committee will learn and adapt.

Yes, because every game in the 4 team playoff and every NC game before the playoffs were implemented were close entertaining games.

Bro, they are never going to shrink it.

I do think the on-campus thing was somewhat overhyped. The crowds are decent, I guess, but you're going to get some crap games in the north right before Christmas.
