Shit like this is why I say the field should be expanded to, like, 16 schools. 4 schools is not a real playoff, it's a BCS play-in.

Nah the sole reason college football is so great is that every game could be make or break weather it is the Iron Bowl or a bum ass cake walk vs Iowa that your team blows like Ohio state. I don't even think it should be 6 teams. You need the controversy and tight margins of only picking 4 teams.

Not saying the NFL should copy the final 4 format because it is fine. But a 4 team playoff in any pro sport would add so much more meaning to the regular season. Football fans are hypocritical as fuck. They are sick of participation trophies in sports and don't want football to be tough. But then their team gets boxed out of this playoff and they start bitching about how the playoff needed to be expanded.

The only reason any fanbase should bitch is if they are undefeated in a power 5 conference and they don't get in. Other than that if you have 2 losses or even 1 loss you shouldn't have an automatic bid. Strive for perfection or don't bitch.

Nobody's perfect, though, and apparently perfection doesn't mean anything when you look at UCF and how they didn't get anywhere close to the playoff even though they went undefeated. A 4-team playoff is just a finessed BCS system, shit is wack. If you get a real playoff system then you have to settle all of that speculation shit on the field. Ain't nothing participating trophy about beating the best in a postseason tournament to claim a national championship, and if you get smashed, then at least you tried.

6 teams is perfect

8 should be the max

Speed kills, the Big 10 of all conferences should know. Miami got at them off raw talent that year even though the underachieved like a motherfucker under Shannon.

Anything would be better than 4. I personally would like 12, with the top 4 seeds getting a bye.

That would give schools outside of the P5 that get no love a chance to prove themselves.

As a Uconn football fan i can tell you that UCF isn't a top 4 or even top 6 team. the AAC isn't a power 5 conference so i don't think that UCF team should make it. I think if a non power 5 team like UCF goes undefeated i think they should be able to get in if they actually have a quality win against a top notch power 5 team. But any Big 12, Big 10, SEC, or ACC team that goes undefeated should be in automatically.

An actual playoff system would ruin the importance of the regular season in D1 college football. When Uconn moved up to Division 1 from FCS one of the reasons i fell in love with following college football more was because one loss was the equivalent to 1 stutter in a rap battle. Shit just 1 or 2 extra teams in the playoff would have ruined the importance of the last 2 weekends.

I disagree. Teams were playing for a top 4 spot, yes, but a bigger field would let you see if UCF is a contender or pretender. And FCS is Division 1, only reason UConn moved to FBS was cause they have the resources. They wasn't moving in FCS to move to FBS cause they were cold like Appalachian State or Marshall did. They'd get washed by a bunch of FCS schools right now. Hell, a school like UConn would benefit from an expanded field.

We lost to them in 2009 in a bowl game. Big 10 size vs Florida speed

Speed kills, the Big 10 of all conferences should know. Miami got at them off raw talent that year even though the underachieved like a motherfucker under Shannon.

I think that's the game Wisconsin won and many of the Miami players were huddled around the heaters even though it was only 65 degrees.

 

[Inglewood_B]

Ohio State vs USC in the Rose bowl.

It might get ugly

As long as they don’t try to press this as a showcase for Darnold heisman campaign for next year.

Let RoJo eat.

Tha Florida state win would have held sum weight if they were not a 6-6 team at tha end

Ohio State didn't lose to Iowa, they got their ass kicked by Iowa. There is a difference.
