Conference Title games gone, first round matchups the week after the regular season


We already know there is a week between the regular season and round 1 of the playoff. The national championship is still going to be late January and the New Years 6 bowls will still host games.

All of this has already been announced
Why jump through a million hoops in order to try to maybe make the product less shitty… instead of just not making the product less shitty?

Am I crazy or should they have at least looked at his right elbow being down on the fumble? They never went to the other side but it looked to me like there was a chance his right arm dragged the ground before the fumble

Dr. Sumners screwed a lot of people, according to my ex wife, with his "selection" system for employer bids (or whatever the hell he did.)


I do remember the selection process being weird. Kind of like med school matching, but I wouldn’t say people got “screwed”

Naturally ESPN doesn’t care and the presidents can’t say the players will get X per game because that would legitimately professional

So as it is now, they are asking players to pay more games for the same salary.


So confident, yet so wrong

I assure you the guys that ruin their brains and bodies for your enjoyment would rather win a playoff game and get a shot to play a top 8 team in the playoffs than go to Orlando for a week in December.


I’m not sure that’s true. Especially ones that are draft eligible
quote:

This expansion eliminates the crying about final seeds, gives the Big Ten and SEC huge pools of teams in it, and sets the stage for a 16 team tournament where 9-24 play into the field.


No one actually wants this except the people making all these dumbass decisions though
quote:

I actually agree with him that the first round could be mostly competitive, but that’s only because teams 9-24 are typically average at best and isn’t a credit to the new layout. The real carnage will be in round 2.


There may be a team or two in the 8-12 range that could make some real noise in some years. If so, those teams will beat the dog shite out of 20-24 and would have been in today’s playoff. Most years though, 9-11 is going to crush the last teams in and then get crushed in round 2 and 12-20 are all going to play mid games that equate to the Gator Bowl and pointless to the championship picture.

Which all this accomplishes is when 22 magically upsets a team in the top 5, it goes from ruining one teams season to doing nothing
quote:

We all eagerly await the day that the #23 seed upsets the #10, at which point America will get the pleasure of watching #23 lose by 30 on the road at #2 as a 3+ TD underdog.


I’ll tell you this, it’s a tough scene when your argument for your team is we played a shitty USC team close
quote:

Having 9-24 play into the bracket makes it infinitely better for any fan of a non blue blood.


It doesn’t change shite except the arbitrary name of the meaningless game in the title chase :lol:

I’m showing you that’s just not true.


You are claiming it’s not true, but the actual results on the field prove that it is :lol:
quote:

Does that change the fact they played Indiana and Oregon and USC


Congrats to the Hawkeyes on their almost wins
quote:

They earned their way by playing in a terrible conference and spending 4x what their opponents spent to secure a roster capable of getting trounced by Oregon?


And the AFC South sucks, it’s never going to be 100% perfect, but having Iowa in the playoff just makes it worse not better.
quote:

And Oregon crushed JMU and Tech.


None of these teams were playoff quality, but Texas Tech earned their way in by winning their conference, which I have no problem with. You are never going to get the “12 best teams” or whatever number, just like the NFL doesn’t, but the solution to that isn’t just adding a bunch of teams that don’t belong

north Texas could have given that bama team a game too.

I personally think 24 is a bit too much but I'm also not getting on a soapbox and pretending like this is the death of FBS. This dumb shite gets said every time there's a change and every time it's proven wrong


Nothing is the death knell… until it is.

And this seriously degrades the product. It’s not like no one is going to watch, but contraction can be the snowball that can’t be stopped
quote:

JMU would have played Alabama and probably would have given that turd of a squad a game. Oregon would have kicked the shite out of Alabama too. They were soft as baby shite Iowa would have played Miami. And they’d have played a low a scoring defensive dogfight just like they did with Indiana and Oregon.


You are using the rankings from after conference championship games that will no longer exist. Try again
