Don't know the exact math but let's start with this and see how some teams look

1 point for each FBS win
.75 points for each FCS win
.5 for each opponent FBS win
.25 for each opponent FCS win

espn wants a 16 team CFP moving forward. - Hensou - 9:29am 11/30/25 (24) [View All]
- It should be 16, but there should only be 5 AQs (Top 5 Conf Champs) - Chrisb - 9:49am 11/30/25
  - as long as there is subjective decision-making, there are going to be issues [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 9:59am 11/30/25
    - There will always be complaints, people find ways to complain about who gets in NFL playoffs... - Chrisb - 10:20am 11/30/25
      - i’m not aware of people complaining about who gets in the NFL playoffs. Regardless, a 16 or 24 team - WestCoastIrishFan - 10:28am 11/30/25
        I'm not for 24, and in a 16 team CFP, if SEC gets 5 or 7 in based on merit, ie where they're ranked - Chrisb - 10:35am 11/30/25
        that’s the issue, who defines merit when leagues rarely play each other [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 10:39am 11/30/25
        The CFP Committee! Who actually does a pretty darned good job with their rankings - Chrisb - 10:46am 11/30/25
        I want as little subjectively as possible. [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 11:08am 11/30/25
        Can't be done with this many teams in this many different conferences, who - Chrisb - 11:16am 11/30/25
        that's why I'm a proponent of blowing it up. No reason to put lipstick on a pig. [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 11:39am 11/30/25
        Blowing what up? Elaborate! - Chrisb - 11:45am 11/30/25

        i posted it earlier. for football only get rid of conferences. [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 12:06pm 11/30/25
        Nah, I don't like it... - Chrisb - 12:30pm 11/30/25
        i liked the way ohio used to do high school playoffs. teams got points for their wins - WestCoastIrishFan - 12:36pm 11/30/25

        no different than the two best nfl teams being in the same conference [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 12:34pm 11/30/25
        It is different, in two ways - Chrisb - 12:48pm 11/30/25
- Why not 64 teams? Then we can quibble about # 63 thru 65. [NT] - Shadow_of_the_Dome - 9:33am 11/30/25
  - Yeah, that makes total sense. 64 would be 47% of the field (more than even NFL), 16 would be 11% - Chrisb - 11:39am 11/30/25
- there always will be bitching as long as it’s subjective. guy on X said it right, it’s now an - WestCoastIrishFan - 9:32am 11/30/25
  - Don't be ridiculous, the NFL has 14 of 32 (44%) in "playoffs" 16 of 136 is only 11%, huge difference [NT] - Chrisb - 9:54am 11/30/25
    - but the NFL doesn’t have subjectivity in its playoffs [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 9:58am 11/30/25
      - Yes, which would be a rationale to have MORE (not less) college teams in a playoff... - Chrisb - 10:12am 11/30/25
