An unpopular take? This game represents everything that’s wrong with CFB

Reduce # of scholarships and expand the playoffs

1/11/21 9:55pm

Scholarship reductions are the biggest key. Don’t allow a few teams to stockpile

Yep, it is this simple

Are you implying that CFB is a “free market”? Now that’s funny.

Make it a free market system.

Term limits for coaches

Let guys go pro after freshman year

Bama will still get the best

But they might not develop the fastest in some years.

That’s the NFL’s call.

My unrealistic solution: Set quota on # of 4* & 5* scholarships.

Soupie

Just reduce the number of scholarships

1/11/21 9:54pm

This will hurt small schools too

LyleLanley

Yep. No reason to keep kids from gettting an education.

Soupie

1/11/21 9:56pm

Why not do more scholarships altogether but a combination of full and half?

puntersarepeople

1/11/21 11:06pm

Nope. It would ensure better parity

1/11/21 10:05pm

Then you leave logistics of recruiting to some subjective star rankings? No way.

That is a caveat that would need to be worked out. Not sure of the solution.

I didn’t watch any of the playoffs this year. And I used to love football.

1/11/21 9:59pm

It's not a playoff. It is THE P5 Invitational.

TrueBlue67

Didn't watch that one either.

And if an outsider somehow fields a top team, they lack the history to get in...

1/11/21 10:00pm

I’d say six programs can compete- Alabama, Clemson, OSU, LSU, Georgia and OU

No one else in your lifetime? That's crazy talk. These things are cyclical.

Texas could and USC could. But that’s it.

1/11/21 10:18pm

ND could but probably not with Kelly

puntersarepeople

1/11/21 11:07pm

Agreed. College football prides itself in "every game matters." That's garbage. For the vast majority of teams...

cougfanblue

1/11/21 10:22pm

Every game does matter...if you are Alabama, Clemson, ND, tOSU, USC, Texas, or

I haven't watched the playoffs since year 2 of playoffs. I hate this system.

here's to hoping
