CFB Playoff Expansion to 12 teams approved
FireChans replied to YoloinOhio's topic in College Football
Now I see why Bama is afraid of the expanded playoff. Too many unranked Big 12 teams that are gonna smoke em. Someone check on Bill -
Not to mention CB is the hardest position to translate college to the pros, outside of QB historically right? Folks have to remember the Bills don't draft in the top 10 anymore. Guys like Tre coming out of the box great are RARE. If you are drafting blue chip positions like DE and CB in the last 3-4 picks of the first round, they are not normally gonna come out at be stars. If they were, they would be top 10 picks.

Not even then. we are not the “lovable losers.” The expectation is to win.

I doubt he’d leave with his son at QB

Nah. No more going to the airport for regular season wins. It's not 2017 anymore.

We will table this discussion and when #11 UCLA beats #1 Georgia in the CFB semifinals to go to the final in 2024, I will be immortalized forever. -

Leave your British slang out of this! Sure, you're right some of those teams may win the first week and get smoked the next. But if they beat another "playoff contender", don't they deserve that chance? Let's say Utah or Ole Miss shocks the world and beats Michigan or Cinci. Don't they "prove" they deserve to be in over those teams? I think they do. And that's really the rub of it, and why I'm all for it. I HATE when teams fall out of the top 4 and are, in my opinion, good enough to deserve a shot. The kids deserve a shot. Do you remember that ATROCIOUS year where TCU and Baylor were co Big12 champions and ended up 5 and 6 and never got a chance to even try? I think one of them was undefeated. It makes it fun. The prevailing thought is that the mediocre SEC teams would still beat the top Big12 or PAC10 teams. Rather than debate the snubs, let's just see if that's true. If it's a dud and Bama/Georgia/OSU and a rotating 4th team are consistently the final four and dominate everybody, contract the playoff to 10 or 8. To your earlier point, I think I would have just expanded to 6 or 8. 12 is ALOT. But, IMO, if you did the top 6 last year, there's a decent chance Baylor gets past Michigan. And then they get a shot. -

IMO massive reform ain't coming. Here's how I see it. Below is the top 12 from last season. 12. Utah Utes 10-4 851 (10) 11. Ole Miss Rebels 10-3 926 (8) 10. Oklahoma Sooners 11-2 966 (14) 9. Michigan State Spartans 11-2 1026 (11) 8. Notre Dame Fighting Irish 11-2 1039 (5) 7. Oklahoma State Cowboys 12-2 1177 (9) 6. Ohio State Buckeyes 11-2 1247 (7) 5. Baylor Bears 12-2 1259 (7) 4. Cincinnati Bearcats 13-1 1349 (4) 3. Michigan Wolverines 12-2 1361 (2) 2. Alabama Crimson Tide 13-2 1464 (1) 1. Georgia Bulldogs 14-1 1525 (3) Let's say the top 2 get bye weeks (have they announced how they are going to do that?) Utah vs Michigan Ole Miss vs Cinci Oklahoma vs Baylor MSU vs OSU ND vs Oklahoma State Which of these games would not have been competitive last year? Maybe Utah - Michigan? I think if you tried to pick winners on the rest of the field you'd struggle to go higher than 50%. How is this much different than bowl play as it currently stands? -

Then cancel non-competitive games against Mercer and New Mexico State. No use blowing out an ACL up 56-0. You forget most of these kids don't make the NFL. A decent starter on TAMU may WANT to play as many games as possible. Having a big time playoff may change his career from Enterprise Rent A Car to NFL backup
