Intervention Needed
This conversation has been had before. It shouldn't happen and the comparison
to match madness autobids is flawed.

I think the only way you fix college football is to expand the playoff to 16.

Autobids for all G5 conferences should never and will never happen

Why? This brings more competition to college football...
BYU Grounds

Because it way overvalues G5 champions. Why should buffalo be rewarded
LiveCoug

Because they won their conference. Just like in basketball

Who cares? Seriously, who cares who wins the WAC/MWC/MAC?

Because they aren’t one of the best teams

I bet a lot of people hated watching all of the upsets in march madness.

And that is the thinking of the P5...who cares who wins the non-P5 championships

Ah so you like football to be women's gymnastics. Got it.

Monopolies are monopolies specifically because they restrict competition.

Why, the rule is that you need to win your conference championship

Any undefeated G5 team would easily get an invite to a 16-team playoff.

“Easily”? Did you not learn from BYUs rankings this year?

An undefeated BYU team would easily be in the top 16.

Because they blew almost everyone out and played a few decent name brand teams

Name brand teams? Only BSU. BYU's ranking this season is consistent with

But there’s something special about the autobid, including a ranking system

Generally, it wouldn't be an issue but it could work against a P5 conference the

That’s actually pretty simple
puntersarepeople
1/11/21 11:38pm
All that would do is discourage P5 teams from scheduling quality OOC games.

Meanwhile a 3 loss Iowa State makes it. Shouldn't have to be undefeated.

It works for basketball because there are significantly more at large bids

there are also significantly more D1 basketball programs too
ManicBlue
1/12/21 3:28pm
Yes, but the many at large spots go to good teams. There are plenty.
LiveCoug
1/12/21 3:38pm
Six at large spots in the CFB should be plenty
ManicBlue
1/12/21 4:54pm
It would be 5 and that's not enough to make up for UTSA or toledo

How do you know if they don't get a chance to play? Btw, why are you using
