College football has become one big quagmire.

IDK I could see some team throwing a hissy fit over having to play with nothing for them to gain and for them to lose. It sounds absurd but the situation we have now could lead to it happening. A lot of shyt that would've sounded absurd in 2018-19 is totally normal today.

Personally I think they need to conference championship games now. There's no more use for them in the new format.

What fanbase or AD would stand for that p*ssy shyt…..?

I preferred the old models because it made Championship weekend playoff games for the most part.

I know @smitty22 feel what im saying

When was the last time won a conference? Let me look that up real quick .

The people who complain about the Winter are the same ones who complain about Summer

Who woulda thought that the Army/Navy game could possibly have playoff implications. I'll be tuned in....and it has very little to do with patriotism.

I used to be all about a playoff but they have just gone too far for dudes that they still aint paying. All this shyt...bowls, Conference games, playoff are money grabs and the pie dont get split. fukk that. nikkas playing 15 games and gonna be 16, 17 now for free.

Lol nah

lol yeah you right but you have to admit they are a bunch of hoes!

The funny thing is they keep making the same mistakes. They created a bunch of meaningless bowl games, then the media/fans/etc got mad when players started skipping them to prepare for the draft. Now we're going to have a 12 team playoff system and I guarantee you players will skip games on lower seeded teams. If you're say...James Pearce and Tennessee is the 12 seed come January, are you risking injury in a meaningless playoff game or are you preserving your potential top 10 status and bouncing to the draft process.

The playoff expansion should have been 6 teams total (top two seeds get a first round bye). I'd be fine compromising and doing 8, but 12 is way too fukking much.

I don't think players see national championships as meaningless especially in the post NIL era. A national championship could earn you limitless bread if leveraged correctly, similar to winning a super bowl.

It’s a reason they got sent a noa. You probably should come up with another angle.

I kinda like the parity, watching teams like bama barely win is good for college football, no wonder saban left

 

[Da Jungles]

Are the games good? That’s all that matters to me. I don’t need a narrative.


Just watch the Velveeta Cheese BOWL game and STFU

Not being able to stockpile talent anymore is kinda nice.

These kids don't wanna wait, they wanna play. All the they were told to get them on campus and sign the dotted line don't matter no more as they can just leave if they feel like they were lied to and/or not getting PT, etc.

Better start recruiting cats that actually love the school and not just for the PT/Paycheck

Army-Navy being relevant in 2024 is wild.

I actually liked the format pre BCS. There wasn't 20 teams in a conference and going to a bowl game actually mattered. The bowl matchups also mattered. Regular season games mattered.

But they didn't want to do votes anymore and have co-national champions. So they created the BCS, and introduced algorithms instead of humans to pick who plays for the "title". Running up the score mattered. Instead of "style" points, they needed to feed the algorithms.

Then they created a playoff. They didn't know what to call it, so they just named it the "College Football Playoff". The ONLY difference between that and the old way is instead of going with the AP and Coaches poll, a ground of "special" people got to sit in a room and decide the 4 teams. Now they get to pick 12 and eventually 16.

Then you add in the fukkery with the conferences. The SEC and Big 10 plotted to and has successfully monopolized perception by poaching schools to create super conferences and weaken others. They are already angling to get 8 guaranteed spots, if they go to a 16 team format.

There are currently 10 FBS conferences. Out of those 10, 4 conferences make up over half of that. The SEC and Big 10 control the media slots and get the most tv money. A true playoff format would consist of 12 conferences and a 12 team playoff. The winner of each conference is in. If a 1 loss SEC team doesn't get in, then they should've won their conference. College football has basically become NFL light. Take the committees, the polls and the voting shyt out of it. It's like they want to evolve, but still have elements of how it use to be which makes no sense. Notre Dame shouldn't have it's own TV deal. They changed the transfer rules, but then change them again, because too many people was using it. They don't know what they want.

Bro...no

The current state was and is needed. All that style points and running up the score on teams just for conference bias to kick in from voters was egregious. Too much parity for 4 teams to only be in a playoff. All conferences aren't created equal for 12 conference winners. Hell we were in the Pac and our conference was shytted on. Why would anyone care about the MAC champion.
