Greed. Power. Money. The adults in the room are killing college football. 12 team playoff is a watered down money making scam. 24 team playoff is even worse. There are only maybe 3 or 4 teams that have a realistic shot at winning it all and one of those realistic teams was left out of the CFP maliciously and intentionally last season. We celebrate our outstanding recruiting class but how many will still be around in 1-2-3 years? Fans are conditioned to not blink an eye at a player who has 3 and 4 other schools under his belt and still playing in college. ESPN, university presidents, ADs, agents, conference officials, CFP committee, boosters, and fans all have a hand in this. I don't know. There's no going back. The adults won't stop at football.
