I completely enjoyed them and I agree and regular season being shorter because first and foremost a 15 to 16 game total number wears and tears on college kids. I say go to 10 regular season games then 16 playoff teams, one additional home game to the top 8 seeds and eight neutral bowl games then 4 teams to the major bowls to two and the finals from sunny Pasadena after. At least it would be down to 14 for the finalist in number of games.
