Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
This positive change has been a long time coming.
But it won't solve all problems. Arguments about which deserving team was not selected to be in the final four will still rage.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
Yeah but hopefully it will settle the "#3 ranked undefeated team deserved a shot at a national title" debate. I like this move. It's not going to fix everything that's wrong with college football, but it's a start.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
Ladies and gentlemen please welcome to the 20th century..............COLLEGE FOOTBALL!
*Yes you read that right* At least now the National Champion will be more deserving of the name. I'm still holding out hope that one day there will be a 6 or 8 team playoff with home games but this is a good first step. Anything more would dilute the postseason.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
About time! I think within 2 years, we'll see it expanded to 8. Of course, 2 years will be 2017 since this won't start until January 2015.
They won't do it because it's the right move for competition, they'll do it because of the revenue potential. I don't care why as long as it happens.

Awesome, thanks for sharing your lack of an opinion.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
I had a opinion it sucks. Opinion stated.
No worse then Giantone complaining about the NBA in the playoffs thread.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
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.

Re: NCAA Football Approves 4 Team Playoff System
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 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.
