Changed to 8, because I think it could happen.
3 more games for 2 teams might be justified. But 16 teams is a lot more football, and the powers-that-be seem inclined to think it is too much.
And, really, 8 teams with at least one spot guaranteed to non-P5 conference is "enough", IMO.

POLL: Playoff Expansion Preference

16 team = 4 games to determine a NC which seems like a lot for a FB post-season

Agree. Far too many and would never be considered.
Everyman
4/8/21 9:18am
Far too many for what??? You are saying that 16 games is just too much for 2

Too many participants.

I like conference play to mean more. 2nd in P5 conference shouldn't have a shot

If you want the conference season to mean something, make it a 10-team playoff.

2nd in P5 has a chance right now. 2nd in P5 has a chance w/ 2 team playoff ('12)

Have 16 teams and more than just P5. conf champs can get bids. Why limit G5 to just one spot?

This is a huge lie. Most games are meaningless. Very few actually matter.

16 teams doesn’t change a thing for all but 8 teams in the country.

I voted 12 because I like the idea of rewarding the top 4 with a bye.

That's why to me it needs to be 16

8 teams, 5 P5 Champs, 2 guaranteed G5 spots, 1 at large. Done.

16 teams, 8 auto bids and 8 at large. Might be 1st round slaughters at first but it will improve. Need to earn the NC.

You know the SEC will be taking 2-3 slots in that scenario Conference play needs
ray ray
4/8/21 10:10am
You have 8 conf champs auto bids. That means 4-5 teams who would otherwise not get a chance at least.

4/8/21 10:11am
It also means probably top 2 from all P5s make it. Ughh

Aren't there 10 conferences? The G5 and the P5?

What conferences get auto-bids? Obviously the P5, but what about the rest?

1 G5, 2 at-large (could still be G5)

4/8/21 10:18am
16 Teams, 11 Auto bids (ALL - conference champs, including one for independents)
Cougero
4/8/21 10:19am
I could go with this but think you need 16 for it to really work.

Independents doesn't make sense here

Nope. Totally unfair.
