All they have to do is change the ridiculous format. Just pick the 12 best teams and be done with it. Winning a crappy conference shouldn’t guarantee you squat.The only way the playoff field would ever be cut would be if few people would attend or watch the opening round games, which won't happen. The best we can hope for is that the CFP committee improves their criteria for selecting and seeding teams.
They will just rank the conference champions higher than they deserve.All they have to do is change the ridiculous format. Just pick the 12 best teams and be done with it. Winning a crappy conference shouldn’t guarantee you squat.
ASU, SMU, and Clemson would not have been in IMOThey will just rank the conference champions higher than they deserve.
SMU was not a conference champion so I agree. Not so sure about the others.ASU, SMU, and Clemson would not have been in IMO
Also, no one on this planet can convince me Boise is one of the 12 best teams. Or Indiana for that matter. All of them are total frauds.
Yeah, I just meant they overranked them all year. We have to stop this nonsense of simply ranking teams based PURELY on record and nothing else.SMU was not a conference champion so I agree. Not so sure about the others.
i think they are about to see a massive hit on their money tonight. It won’t shrink the playoffs but I guarantee you that new safeguards will be put in to prevent this from happening againNot a chance. Once the networks get a taste of the money they big time college football brings in, they’ll do anything to keep it going.
Playoffs only ever do one thing, expand.Literally zero chance it ever shrinks.
Make it a 24 team tournament like the FCS and get rid of the bowl games?You are headed to a 16 team playoff................watch and see
It won't happen.Please let these results be the catalyst for it
Yep.You are headed to a 16 team playoff................watch and see
Fine. No auto bids. Seed teams by rank. Re-seed teams after each round.You are headed to a 16 team playoff................watch and see
