Breh, a fifth conference is clearly fukking shyt up. Its gotta go.
If they did the playoffs can become a final four of champions
Group 5 Schools Want Their Own Playoff....
- Thread starter Jerz-2
- Start date

It's not about politics. It's about timing, as in how long will the season last?? These student-athletes are still "students". You'd be asking the champion to play a 12 game regular season, extra conference championship game, plus 3 More playoff games. All of this Unpaid?8 team playoff would perfect for this season
SEC: Bama
B1G: Penn St
Pac-12: Washington
ACC: Clemson
Big XII: Oklahoma
Go5: W. Michigan
WC 1: Ohio State
WC 2: Michigan
Too much politics for this to happen.

Theyd have to drop 2 games. It's not hard. Cut those 2-3 cupcake games, end the season in November and start the playoff.
They'd bytch about lost revenue tho

all this shifting and reorganizing just keeps fukking up college hoops. It's bad enough y'all fukked up the Big East over this shyt. Now we need to dead a really good basketball conference to suit a mere handful of schools? shyt sucks, especially when the schools displaced shyt on these other schools at everything else.

Nobody would care about that shyt, I'm borderline obsessed with football and I probably wouldn't even watch
Bring back the BCs
Non power schools were fine being a BCs buster

I was thinking they would have to condense the regular season. The biggest issue with CFB is there's too many teams. I'm not sure some of those Boise States, BYUs, Navy/Army/AirForce, etc that probably won't ever sniff a title but routinely win 7-10 games with a bowl game highlighting their season. What happens to those teams and their fans? Do bowl games still exist in ya'll scenario so how many wins would you need to make a bowl, 5? Those cupcake games sometimes are what pussh the Arkansas, Iowas, Minnesota, Northwestern, NC State, level teams to be bowl eligible. The system you're describing benefits 10-15 teams at most
Just do what New Mexico did and create their own "Bowl Game" to have their local team play in a "bowl" game every year

I kind of like the idea of having baby playoff games instead of some of these random bowl games. Like instead of SEC playing a championship game this year... why not have a baby playoff between FL, Tenn, Aub, and LSU to see who get to lose in the Sugar Bowl. Or a tournament Michigan, Penn State on one side and USC, Colorado on the other side champ game is the Rose Bowl. I know it sounds crazy, but wouldn't that give these games some buzz and sells more tickets.
And what's wrong with a NIT tournament with the Group of 5 teams. Western Michigan just went undefeated and they really don't have anything to play for. I would watch a Temple vs W. Michigan faux championship game before I watch the Wisconsin vs W. Michigan Cotton Bowl.
Edit:
Oh, I just had a great idea... how about a playoff between MSU, ND, TX, Oregon with Ole Miss and UCLA as wild cards.
Let the settle it on the field in the Taxslayer bowl. I would watch every game.

You can still have bowl games. There are 40 damn bowl games now. The 1st round of an 8 team playoff you have home field advantage.2nd round would be at on 2 of your rotating locations you already have now and last game as you do now. And as for those below .500 teams going to bowls they can
You can really create an 8 team playoff pretty easily. The hardest part would be TV scheduling but they can go from Thurs-Sat with games

So this is basically the NIT for football?
the great alaska shootout, the cancun challenge, las vegas invitational, whatever the fuk you want to call it 
too many bowl games as it is, to have another playoff in college 1-A football.
people forget, these players are students-athletes. do they really need to play 2-3 more games.
I don't blame them

me personally i would setup like this
SEC:
B1G:
Pac-12:
ACC:
Big XII
your power five would have their own division with 16 teams in each conference top two teams in each conference make playoffs. 10 team playoff.
now the rest of them conference that has no true shot would be in their on division have their own playoff system basically like div 3 playoff system
now last but not least get rid of them conference championship games and unneccesary bowl games that dont mean nothing

They could drop one of the cupcakes and play the QF the week after the Army/Navy game. If they can they would but too many bowl presidents will shut it down quickly. No way they fukking up their Ponzi scheme salaries.
