It's a shame though. You have small market teams. Georgia is a big state though and it has Atlanta, but Atlanta is divided and so many people moved to Atlanta from outside Georgia and no one really cares about Oklahoma, Alabama, and Clemson in the rest of the country.

No one will really care about the games this year. There is no competing story. Two teams from the SEC and three teams from the Deep South will mean little interest in the rest of the country.

This might get the playoff to 8. Might not, but it could be a springboard.

I call bullshite. Clemson/Oklahoma or Oklahoma/Alabama will draw as a National Championship game.

Yeah so will I, but you needed Ohio State or USC to make the playoffs a national thing. This is just a Southern regional playoffs now.

Our fan base is an embarrassment.

Quit embarrassing yourselves just bc you hate Bama.

Personally, I’m just tired of the same teams every year. I’m not saying these four aren’t deserving, I’m just tired of seeing Clemson and Bama

Oklahoma a small state versus a team from the Deep South. No major markets. No national interest.

I hope OU runs the table. Baker Mayfield is the only interesting or truly dynamic player in this field

Alabama is boring. There's no Tom Brady or Aaron Rogers type or even a Mark Ingram or Major Oglive. You have only Nick Saban. That's boring.

Two SEC teams getting in killed the BUS. It will do the same thing to the 4 team playoff.

The entire CFB world is getting tired of Alabama always getting the benefit of the doubt.
