One positive note from last night. At least BYU hit their FTs. 21-26

26 FTs? Man the refs tried to give BYU the game.

Yes to all of your questions, except the last one that isn’t a yes or no.

No. Too much money involved. ESPN wouldn't do that

"Or otherwise incentivized to give unfair treatment to the B1G and SEC?" Yes.

No, it’s just a dumb thing people say to blame results they don’t like on conspiracy nonsense.

How would the College world react, if UNLV beat Boise, and they both got in CFP

Zoobieman

3:46pm

you think a currently ranked 10th Boise wouldn't fall out of the top 12 spots?

Honestly, yes I think they would. . .

Zoobieman

3:51pm

Look at last year, Georgia lost SEC championship at 12-0 and dropped from 1 to 5

BYUFootballisBack

They'd be ahead of BYU still.

dYrtbYkerYder

I know how I'd react.

reagan21

3:48pm

I'd react by never again watching a game that BYU wasn't playing in.

dYrtbYkerYder

3:53pm

I've already stopped watching SEC and B10 games.

Benfica1

Probably do it just to stick it to the B12.

LakeshowCougs

Imagine UNLV winning a tournament game. The fallout would be epic. And ...

KCFan85

ok.

reagan21

3:54pm

If the B12 is only getting 1 team in, I'd LOVE for UNLV to knock a SEC team out!

Won't happen. I'd welcome it. The more underdogs/potential upsets, the better!

Q-grr

Honestly I would love 24, but I am just hopeful for 14 or 16.

Cougar TD

3:24pm

16, Top 6 conf champs (or 7 champs if you want to be really nice)

Zoobieman

3:32pm

DII does 28 teams. The money is too good. You know it'll expand past 12 at some point.

slappy

3:25pm

Just rank the top 25 and do a playoffs with all 25.

Cougar TD

3:27pm

There's no way it won't be at 14 or 16 in 2 years. The Big10/SEC/ND aren't happy

It would be so fun to watch 21 SEC+B1G teams plus 1 each of B12/ACC/G5!

Chefcurry

3:30pm

CCGs should be the first round of the playoffs. Two teams from each conference

AlternateShot

3:35pm

20 or 24 will be great as long as it includes all conference champs. Just adding more SEC/B1G isn’t better

22jrob22

Every p4 gets two team’s minimum.

idcougarfan

3:38pm

Or create a rule that teams w/3 or more losses (excluding CCG) are not included

That will make OOC games a waste because nobody will schedule good teams.
