Would you be willing to accept a college football season with no playoffs/bowls?

I think with all this protesting stuff, we have proven we can have mass crowds with no issue (presuming all these people don't die in a month).

But just throwing out possibilities for discussion sake.

Would you be willing to accept a non-playoff, non-bowl game season?

Play the regular season as scheduled. No conference championships, no bowls, no CFP. Declare the division winners as conference co-champs.

I'd rather have a full, normal season. But I'd rather give up playoffs / bowl games than give up the regular season or cut it short.

No clue why this was put in there but whatever.

Why would they have a whole season, but then no playoffs and bowl games?

I haven't seen any talk about a shortened season anyway so I don't get the point of this

My only guess is that it would fulfill TV deals so schools got paid while avoiding the money pit that most of the bowl games are. Or maybe some sort of wave of supercovid hits.

There were people on here saying the SEC would absolutely stage a season even if other conferences didn't. I was thinking wut. They would not play what amounts to an exhibition season IMO.

Of course

I enjoy Alabama breaking their **** off in SEC teams more than anything else about CFB.

The mass bowls we can do without.

Winner of each P5 Conference ranked; top 4 play in 3 Bowls for the Championship.

And one bowl has to be the Rose.

No playoffs/bowls just means bama will claim another championship if they finish in the top 10

Playoffs, yes, the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl and some of those I wouldn’t lose sleep if those went away, but I do watch some of them if I’m in a bowl pickem pool.

If the SEC, Big 12, and the USA/Belt conferences are the only ones playing football, the SEC would still organize a 4 team playoff between the conferences to declare some kind of champion.

It all conferences play? There will 100% be a post season unless something catastrophic happens.

I would much rather cut 2 of the OOC games to have bowls/playoffs. Could do the whole thing in 2 weeks
