Because they are guaranteed. Most of them wouldn't make it otherwise.

What rules?

Only the winner of the CFP is NC. If you’re not one of the four you can’t be the one. That rule.

Those aren't NCAA rules.

They are the rules that are recognized as the way we pick a NC

CFP operates outside the NCAA and it’s accepted

It’s also rejected

Sooooo...do you acknowledge Utah as a two time champ in football too?

Thinking of ncaa bball, baseball, hockey, NBA, NFL, MLB, MLB etc l..

Wouldn’t that be the opposite of the example in the OP. Beat no one and win?

No one thinks the current system isn’t flawed. But it’s what they agreed to...

Agreed. More like given 1 option and asked if you want to participate or shut

I’m not saying it is a fair system.

I doubt the g5 schools agreed to anything.

They voted for it so that they could get the one NY6 game and $1M/school

NCAA football is in desperate need of a 12-16 team playoff

Eight teams, five conference champs and three wildcards
RC Vikings
4/22/18 1:32pm
That won't get any G5 teams in. I agree you need at least 12 teams.
mwcoug
4/22/18 1:38pm
That’s not true, UCF would have been in with eight teams in this year
RC Vikings
4/22/18 1:44pm
No they wouldn't. They were #12 in the final CFP.
molodyets
4/22/18 1:49pm
This is correct. They were #12 with all 5 P5 champs ahead of them at the end

4/22/18 1:52pm
Based off the current system but if they expand to eight teams and a G5 is
RC Vikings
4/22/18 2:00pm
What makes you think that? I see no reason why they allow a lower ranked G5

Because they are guaranteed. Most of them wouldn't make it otherwise.

4/22/18 6:05pm
I understand that, with eight teams they would need to rewrite how teams make
RC Vikings
4/22/18 6:45pm
So not based off the current system. You want a new system
molodyets
4/22/18 7:12pm
Any new system would be a total split between P5 and G5
Nat Gas Man

With eight teams you would have to rewrite it.

There is no reason why there shouldn’t be a 16 team playoff. No reason.
Sandstone Cougar
4/22/18 3:09pm
Well there is one. The powers that be don’t want one
Nat Gas Man
4/22/18 3:41pm
Agreed: 16 teams. Have a 10 game regular season. Take the conference champions

The thing I like about this, is that it helps push the narrative that we need an expanded playoff.

Byu fans dismissing ucf is particularly ironic.

I never dismissed their claims of being snubbed. I dismiss their NC claims.

Why do you even bother to act like you're a BYU fan at this point?

No one would be talking about UCF right now if they didn't claim a championship.

And, ultimately, nobody will ever talk about them as 2017 national champions.
