Teams like Ohio St get rewarded for winning their conference Championship game in a P5 conference and teams like Alabama get rewarded for having a great season but failed to win their conference. Plus fans get 4 more real college football playoff games. Everybody wins!! See 12 Team Playoff. This 8 Team format sucks.

Have a playoff system like this and FCS teams won’t hesitate to move up. The current system of 4 is a joke, and even 8 teams will be a bigger joke if more g5 teams go undefeated only to be left out in favor of another p5 team.

Half the fun is that many big games are basically playoff games. (Notre Dame knocked out USC, Miami knocked out Notre Dame, Clemson knocked out Miami, etc.) I don't know about the FCS playoffs. A 6-5 team has gotten an At-large bid in the past. 7-4 teams get in often. That's ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 130 FBS teams total. The NCAA standard for size of playoff fields is 25% of the total number of schools sponsoring the sport. That would make 32 the cut-off for FBS. So even a 16 team playoff would be well below the threshhold. Even if it is easier to get in, teams are still going to fight for the best seed they can possibly get. What really degrades the almighty regular season is having 40+ bowl games and running out of 6 win teams to put in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is time for FBS P5 and G5 divisions, with a playoff bracket for each. The gap in resources and media exposure between those two groups is wide and getting wider. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux rube Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 To bring in a freshman QB to start the second half took balls. Not a Saban fan but damn what a move and obviously it paid off with a National Title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
