You basically have to be top 12 to be “guaranteed” a spot, whether as a champ or at large.

Uggh. This is semantics. You know exactly what I mean, regardless of title

If the new CFP format goes through it actually will be different, not semantics.

7/25/21 5:03pm

You can't compare 5 conferences fighting for a table scrape to the power

7/25/21 5:05pm

As I said, the money part won’t change dramatically at first but the access part

7/25/21 5:10pm

It's not 5 conferences with the power now though. It's 4. And even that isn't

Man, not sure what to tell you. The power will still be with the major

You have no counter-argument, and that’s ok. You have chosen the hill you’re

7/25/21 5:16pm

Sigh. You do you. Strive for a seat at a little boy table. Carry on

If you’re going to keep arguing this in every thread you really should consider

How did you get a "leveling of the playing field" out of my post? This is the

It's not semantics. The power structure is not the same with a 12 team playoff.

Lance71

7/25/21 5:03pm

The power structure is of course still the same.

LiveCoug

The power structure will be tilted more in favor than it is now.

New CFP format will drive us to join a conference.

Why?

Because we would have contractually-guaranteed access to the only meaningful

Question: does the AAC champ have a chance at getting one of four CFP bids now?

7/25/21 5:14pm

That’s a fine straw man you just made there.

7/25/21 5:25pm

Actually you just did. And you also misunderstand the new CFP format.

7/25/21 5:28pm

But you have to hope there aren’t six other champs ahead of you.

Here we go again.

7/25/21 5:30pm

Yes, you did say that many times.

7/25/21 5:37pm

It’s never been negative.

I would love to hear what Worthen and Holmoe believe about this stuff.

Would be a great time for a BYUTV interview with Holmoe

Compared to what? Being invited to the competition on fair terms? Yes, it's bad.
