Too long of a break to be honest, hard to stay focused I would imagine.

If anything we just saw the elimination of the conference championship game

Expand he playoff to 16 or 24 and get rid of CCG's. Sounds good to me.

yeah what was the point of the Big 10 and SEC championship games? I see the

Aye. The CCG knocked out Georgia's starting QB. And two teams that didn't play

Expand to 16, no conf champ games for P4. Top 2 teams in each conf are AQ.

Conferences would lose TV revenue so I would be surprised if they are eliminated

But a four team playoff is just fine.

The Big 12, ACC, and G6 won't support that.

I can't see CCGs surviving much longer. Just expand to 16 and get rid of CCGs.

But then how do you determine who the conference champion is?

mudpupper

Just go to 16 and end the bye that way

ATX

Jan 3, 10:30am

Go to 16, we'll see 6 teams from the SEC and 6 from the B10, 1 or 2 from either the ACC or BIG12 and 1 from G5

Which is why you tie the removal of the CC games into getting 2 teams per P4.

Captain Stubing

Won't happen... right now teams are getting in because they earned it...

First round needed to be played the weekend of army/navy and second round last

8 or 9 Regional smaller conferences all with champions making the playoffs

ATX

Jan 3, 10:40am

More likely - the Big Ten and SEC *expand* their conference championships

Doogal McCougar

Jan 3, 10:43am

I know that’s more likely. But regional small conferences would be better.

ATX

Jan 3, 10:55am

I disagree. Better for whom? Nevada and Boise State and Louisiana Tech?

Doogal McCougar

Jan 3, 11:15am

Like I said you could shrink the conferences to get rid of those. The massive

Some wrinkles to iron out, but I like the massive conferences.
