NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System

Awesome, thanks for sharing your lack of an opinion. :D

I had a opinion it sucks. Opinion stated.

No worse then Giantone complaining about the NBA in the playoffs thread.

Instead of sparking a debate on the #3 and #4 ranked teams being shafted, it'll just move the debate down to the #5 and #6 teams that were shafted.



This is a huge start though.

Boomer Sooner!

Yeah but at the same time the debate over teams 5 and 6 getting shafted won't be nearly as intense as a 3 or 4 team crying foul. Personally I never understood that. If the rational against a playoff was teams crying about being passed over then why have a national championship to begin with?

This is a huge start though.Yeah, you describe how future complaints will be, perfectly. :) This is still huge. Given the nature of football, and college student's schedules, there's not much more you can do, that I can think of. I'd like to add one more week to the season, to have a final eight instead of final four. I'm not sure if that would play too much havoc with the bowl system, though.

What i think sounds great is that BCS rankings arnt picking the teams and match ups. Quality wins and how you finish become much more important, while bcs conference play becomes less. But being college football you cant help but think politics will be part of the decision. Hopefully they make the selection process transparent and without conflicts of interest.
