It boggles my mind how huge that would be and how much more money it would make. Idiotic Presidents.

I agree. I hate the BCS system we have now, royally! NCAA definitely needs to use a playoff system at the end of the year. Although I think a 16 team playoff might drag on a little too long. If they just took the top 8 teams, we could have everything clearly settled in just 3 weeks! And the schools that lasted all 3 weeks get money from each and every game, unlike the measly single bowl game teams play now.

Yesterday I was flipping every once in a while to the Sam Houston St vs Montana football game. I looked up the attendance and it was 24,000 which was a full stadium. The game was in Montana yet there were a ton of Sam Houston fans there, which is a Texas school.

The main beef with a playoff is attendance would be bad with people having to travel week after week. If a semi-finals game in Montana can draw a bunch of fans from a Texas school then I'm sure it would work for Div 1. Cut the regular season down a game... we don't need teams playing 12 games a year. Make it a 12 team playoff starting on Dec 4th. Second round will be Dec 10th. Semi's will be Dec 17th and then the championship game on new years day or in the middle of that week like they do. I'm not a brain surgeon, but that wasn't too hard to figure out...

How does that playoff bracket work? It needs to be 8 or 16.

I said I wasn't a brain surgeon... I was still on the 12 games a season kick and typed in the wrong #. I meant to type 16.

No reason for 16 teams, make it the top 8 and it would be great.

Actually top 4 would be the most likely scenario. You need to figure out a way to keep the BCS bowl people happy. They can't lose their BIG games. This scenario also keeps the other bowl games in place similar to how they are now.

What you do is assign the championship game to one bowl and rotate it every four years. Sugar gets it year one, and Fiesta and Orange host the first round. Rose Bowl gets next two choices out of top 8.

Then next year, Fiesta gets it, while Rose and Orange host the first round. Sugar then gets its choice of the next two teams it wants out of the top 8.

Each year, one of the BCS bowls is out of the picture so to speak, but there really is no other way to have four bowl games entertain a playoffs.

This would work. You don't need a long drawn out playoff schedule, the season, and season championship games are grueling enough. You just need all the undefeateds, and have room for a California. This season would be perfect. Texas and Cal though, would fight out for the number four seed, but you have to have a way to make sure that whoever loses is guaranteed to go to the other BCS game, not like how Cal got totally screwed this year.
