ljl. complete trash

the cfb regular season is still fun enough on a week to week basis, although eventually teams will probably stop treating every week as do or die if they realize they can get into a large playoff field with a loss or two. more so than they already have

but these playoffs are a complete disjointed joke. there's like two and three weeks between games. the ncg feels like an exhibition at this point

Teams need to be grouped into "conferences" of 10 teams MAX and each winner makes the playoff. Plus some at large teams. Getting rid of mega conferences and faggot conference championship games is 180 imo. And every playoff game should be in the higher seed's stadium then have the title game at the rose bowl on jan 1st

oh yeah? the miami team that lost to smu and louisville? shouldn't have sniffed the playoff

do you live in a world with time machines where future unknown results can change decisions made in the past?

none of miami, tamu, bama, oklahoma belonged. obviously jmu and tulane are just there to avoid an antitrust lawsuit.

maybe you could argue it should be a 6 team playoff and oregon and ole miss should be included. but they had their chances in the regular season and failed.

a four team playoff with iu, osu, uga, and ttu would have been perfect

edit: even a bcs championship of iu-uga would be preferable

Just let computers figure out who the best team is, whichever team had the most players drafted probably is the best. Alabama IMO is the best ream this year and deserves the title over "Indiana" who they'd beat by 35 IMO because indiana doesn't play in the SEC.

after playing a tough SEC schedule you can't expect these teams to have anything left come playoff time. The title should just be awarded to the top-6 teams in the SEC every year.

but that's exactly what it means. but more to the point, for me, is that it further erodes what CFB was: historic rivalries in geographically-defined conferences where every game counts. it's just shit now.

It is among those people insofar as they tune into playoff games, advertisers pay for those ads, and the networks and execs profit.

it's enshittified. people watch it because it is barely better than not watching at this point. but EVERY cfb fan would agree that the state of cfb is worse now, by far, than it was a decade ago, and that this kind of thinking has been the cause.

100%

The networks still see more eyeballs on screens with these additional playoff games than they do without them.

i'm already on the fence. i used to watch OSU every season, tried never to miss a game if i could help it. i am busier than i've ever been, but i made zero effort to watch most of the games this season. the ones i did, i was dual screening and frankly didn't care.

next season is probably the season i just don't watch. i wonder how many viewers are like me.

12 is gay so I can at least rationalize moving to 16. It should be 8 or 16 at the absolute max though. No one wants a 24 team bracket filled out with 4 loss cannon fodder.

That's why it should have all the g5 conference winners plus the northeast schools etc. They'd make more money if it was a true national sport. Shouldn't just be the south & midwest plus oregon and then washington and usc every 10 years. They're short-sighted retards imo

In an ideal world, conferences would have 10 or fewer teams and there would be no need for conference championship games.

Nobody cares about conference championship games. Most of the time they are blowouts.

also since the conferences all have 200 teams now and they dont all play each other, the participants in the "championship game" are pretty arbitrary, like duke in the acc this year. it's just a money grab at this point

its not arbitrary its completely logical. if miami wanted to be in the conference championships they could have, you know, won more acc games.
