Arkansas State?

Meh, 4 weeks of playoffs?

I really like the 4-team system. You're just looking for every undefeated team that's played a reasonably hard schedule, the tier 1 teams, the best teams in the league.

Re: The way the college football post season should look
 

I would love 8 or even 16 teams. The excitement for even those first round games would be out of this world. And I really don't see any reason why you couldn't still have the other bowls still being played outside of the playoff. I mean, is the freaking Outback Bowl isn't going to be less significant b/c there is an 8 team playoff going on as well. It is still better than going to no bowl at all, the school still gets money, the kids get a trip, city gets $$ etc. Rotate the 8 team playoff through what are now the BCS bowls or even give the highest seeds home field in the first round. There are so many ways to do this but the bottom line is that more interest would be generated for every bowl associated with the playoff and the others would remain constant. If the Fiesta Bowl and Orange Bowl were semifinals this year they would bring in more $$$ easily.

Why should Texas and USC be penalized for their great season, 14 (6) other teams should not start on equal ground? Why should losers get another chance?

We already had an 11 game playoff...nothing else is needed. This is the one sport that settles it on the field over a whole season. NCAA basketball, for example, settles it by who runs hot over the final 3 weekends.

Re: The way the college football post season should look
 

Except for the two unbeaten teams who didn't get to settle it on the field last year. I'd rather see a one loss team win it all in a playoff than see a zero loss team never get their shot.

Playoffs are gay. every sport marginalizes their regular season (also know as 90% of the games) into what becomes a crap shoot.

Second, I will watch every bowl game that I possibly can this year, because there all bowl games. However, if there was a playoff I wouldn't watch a single one, just like I don't watch the post season NIT.

It makes no sense to give the sun belt champ an automatic bid.

so, you don't think head-to-head play is the best way to find out who the better team is?
