And I still love ya @Bols
Amazing how people can disagree on 1 topic, yet still love each other. 
The world needs to get back to that asap.

Yeah, it’s all good.
I’m happy they expanded the playoffs, I just think they took it too far.
With 8 teams, I feel like we would be getting teams that are all deserving of the chance (at least most of the time).
With 12 teams, I feel like it’s deluted, and undeserving teams are getting an opportunity that they shouldn’t.
You asked for my opinion, and thats it.

Hence why i say the teams eligible needs to be cut down from 136 teams to something like 48-60. That keeps more of the top talent on fewer teams. Making competition more level.
That and have set scheduling. You have a 12 game schedule and 10 of those are against those top 48. Yea much harder of a schedule vs what we have now. Cool Oregon is undefeated. But power rank out all 132 schools. They might have played 4 top 50 teams all year.
Excluding the title game.
6 - Illinois
10 - Boise
21 - Illinois
35 - Michigan
Thats it. The other 8 games Oregon played are trash.
Not crazy about conference realignment and NIL/transfer portal but the 12 team playoff is the best thing to ever happen to college football. It’s still flawed but certainly better than the coalition/shared championships then BCS based on computer ratings then 4 team college football playoff.
I mean, how can a college football fan not be excited about the 4 games coming up the next 2 days at home sites? This is great IMO.

This is an interesting idea to explore. It makes a better product for the average detached fan, but it really freezes out fans/alumni (attached fans) of the schools hurt by it.

My team throws around NIL money like drunken sailors. Screw everyone else.

Lol, fair point to those who are into the big teams.
Why do we even call it NIL still?

SEC, OSU, Clemson and others have always paid players. Now that it’s legal, would it be unreasonable to suggest this creates more parity not less
When is the last time anyone watched Boise State or Indiana in the CFB playoff??
Indiana is sure looking like a pretender. Don’t get me wrong they had a great season, but they aren’t a championship team.

This one was a snoozer. I took 5 naps while it was on.
Hopefully tomorrow brings some better games.
So Cignettti breaks out the cockiness and bravado and then punts down 17 with ten minutes left?
Is Kentucky leaving the SEC??
Probably not, but it’s more about concept than about getting teams perfectly lined up. Although I did try to get teams lined up as much as possible it’s pretty darn hard to get them all lined up without some odd ball slotting needed to fill things in.
Just follow the FCS model, it works well.
