cougarmeister How does this work?

Laughable to hear P5 folks talk about the 'unintended consequences' of the CFP, which were obvious to everybody else

For every one of these concerns expressed in the article, I thought: "Well yeah, what did you think was going to happen?"

-Same teams over and over again
-Damage to the reputation of conferences that don't make the CFP
-Further decline in the value and competitiveness of the leftover bowls

Maybe an expanded playoff is really coming.

It will be challenging. Powers that be don't want a large playoff

The fact that Hancock acknowledged there is a working group,

That's what TNT has said for years

I don’t get why the NCAA or schools would want more meaningless bowl games

The article explains why the powers that be are moving toward double digit teams

TNT will believe it when he sees it

They need more money; plus Clemson/Bama/OSU on repeat is completely boring

Exactly. Never fool yourself that this is for more inclusion. They are only

This is the real answer. Until they include a team from every

In the past two decades, any major change,

Like it. Not a fan of byes though. Just make it 16 like it should be and call it good.

The "fairest" system would be 16 teams w/ 10 conference champs and 6 at-large.

It will just end up a majority P5 tournament with maybe 1 or 2 G5 sprinkled in for "inclusion"

letthewookieewin

4/28/21 8:52am

Probably should be. 12-16 at least gives smaller schools a chance at it though. Why I prefer 16 with no byes.

4/28/21 9:02am

I just think it would be cool to see a small school make a run, like they do in march madness

letthewookieewin

4/28/21 9:04am

I doubt a single non-P5 will be included

2FarGone

4/28/21 9:07am

It "should" include all 10 confernce champs, but my guess is you are probably

jreid191

4/28/21 9:11am

We need to get to at least 12 for me to feel like BYU has a shot to be included

mwcoug

4/28/21 8:53am

I wouldn't get your hopes up. It's going to be the P5 + ND that reaps the benefits

letthewookieewin

4/28/21 8:54am

Yep, they just want more P5 spots

2FarGone

4/28/21 9:06am

At 12, I feel like they would have to include a couple of G5 teams. I don't have

mwcoug

4/28/21 9:10am

They will include *one* G5 auto-bid just to avoid legal issues, plus all P5 champs and 6 at-large bids

4/28/21 9:49am

The article does a great job of why it’s more likely the CFB jumps to 12+ teams.

TempeCoug

4/28/21 8:57am

We need to be in the Big 12 for that to happen

2FarGone

4/28/21 9:03am

They could throw the G5 a bone and include at least one champ (like NY6 now).

rggee

4/28/21 9:25am

More likely they require all P5s to have at least 12 teams and two divisions

2FarGone

4/28/21 10:16am

No one dictate to conferences how many teams they should have.

Everyman

4/28/21 10:22am

Completely money driven. They desperately need more revenue.

shoganai

4/28/21 9:08am

What they all need to do is stop spending so much. They're out of control.

4/28/21 9:09am

In reality, the exact opposite is probably about to happen.

Can't wait until we have a dream season and come in at 13 in the final rankings!
