8 teams. P5 champs, 2 at large and one G5

This is just right. 16 would make the playoffs kinda long; NCAA would rather not

32 is way too many for football.

Agree but it would add the intrigue of cinderella

9-16 already does that most years

It would cut too much into the regular season and let’s be honest —

I'd argue they do. All the top 25 + conference.champions and maybe an at large or two.

12-16 teams, home field advantage until final four or title game.

I like this idea of the NIT type format. I would include small conference champs as autobids here if they don't

There's no reason 16 couldn't happen - It happens at every other level

10/10/17 7:16pm

except the P5 own most of the CFP...why would they want to share the wealth

Same format as NFL. 12 teams. Top 4 get a bye first week.

any expansion would kill the NY6 unless they were part of the process
