I also think all conference champions should be included. I would be fine with
changing or defining what teams can be at this level but every team and conference considered FBS or D1A should have access.

I’ll just say it…12 teams is too many for a college football playoff.

Because there will be more than 6 ways to get to the playoff.

The difference is that BSU's path to the playoff will be easier than Kentucky

Yep, 12 is just too many for a sport with 130 teams . . .

March Madness runs 2 rounds/week. CFB is only 1 round/week. 12 teams is best.
