Why wouldn't you just take the top 16-seeded teams? Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.

Seriously. Do away with the conference championship nonsense. Take the top 16 seeded teams. Start play before XMAS. Give home field advantage in first round. Use the major bowl games for the second round.

This doesn't need to be that difficult.


Imposing corporate abuse, neglect and greed on deserving victims.

  • The SEC and B10 want 8 auto bids? - AlbanyIRISH - 6:24pm 2/18/25 (21) [View All]
    • Leave it at 12. Eliminate the auto byes. The season is long enough as it is. [NT] - Frank L - 8:46pm 2/25/25
    • Most seasons, there will be 4 teams from these conferences in the Top 16. - jakers - 3:26pm 2/21/25
    • This is just dumb and is 100% anti-definition of a playoff. Money hungry leagues. [NT] - oldirish - 10:00pm 2/19/25

      • the NCAA presided over this mess, I'd get rid. of them [NT] - cubsfanin16 - 4:34pm 2/19/25
        • Taking the NCAA is more mercenary - strip UM of stallion cheating Ws [NT] - LanceManion - 7:25pm 2/19/25
    • Why not? Anything to cheapen the regular season. That is the trend for College FB. [NT] - Shadow_of_the_Dome - 12:14am 2/19/25

        • But you can't only look at this year, you have to look at the whole picture..consider this - Chrisb - 8:26am 2/21/25
          • 16 is definitely most ideal for Notre Dame (short of joining a conference). - jakers - 3:42pm 2/21/25
