Yep, 12 is just too many for a sport with 130 teams . . .

I’ll just say it…12 teams is too many for a college football playoff.

I think 4 is fine. I could tolerate 8 I guess

I definitely disagree with the obsession for more playoffs in every sport. I’ll

The 4 team playoff is the exact reason for a lack of parity, which is what you

Increased access should in theory spread the talent around and maybe

It’s not enough. 16 is better.

but why do you think talent is going "move around"?
Mayor of Cougartown
12/1/22 10:25am
Because there will be more than 6 ways to get to the playoff.

I don’t follow this logic.

The difference is that BSU's path to the playoff will be easier than Kentucky
The Dark Knight

That’s not too much different than it’s always been. I suppose BSUs odds would

To even out recruiting we’re not talking about Kentucky vs BSU

Chet Holmgren chose Gonzaga over bigger schools. Football will see the same.

1-2 players matter in basketball. Totally different than football.
Blue Cat

But the idea is that top recruits will start considering smaller schools

No G5 teams should be allowed. G5 football disgusts me.

That means we'll probably be involved with their lot. Who's to say we won't be

It's not enough. Every conference champion should have an auto-berth. Until then

Agreed. Access will create parity.

I’m fine with the top 6 conf. champs plus 6 at-large. All 11 would be too many
cougarmeister
12/1/22 10:14am
I think there should be a few G5 slots and those conferences should replace CCGs

Should be a 6 team playoff, 6 highest ranked Conference Champs.

If this is a legitimate possibility, it’s the only thing that would make bigger

Nope. It will be 16 teams at some point most likely. Gonna be a huge success.

Maybe the bye weeks for the conference champs make some sense and the first week
johnnybyu

I'm predicting that it goes to 16 teams in the next 15 years with 7 total

8. The best team has never ranked worse than 8.
Genghis Spreads

12 is perfect. You get all the top 6 conference champs. Prob the top 10 teams

Jomilo21
12/1/22 10:06am
March Madness runs 2 rounds/week. CFB is only 1 round/week. 12 teams is best.
Y2010
12/1/22 12:19pm
8 is probably the best number: 6 highest rated conference champs + 2 at large.

16 or 24 would be better.

Only if ALL conference champions are represented.

16 is the magic number

Well aside from the automatic bid for a G5 Conference Champion...
Jomilo21
12/1/22 10:22am
There's an important distinction here though. It's the top 6 ranked champs

I also think all conference champions should be included. I would be fine with
