By your perspective the NFL should just take the top three teams plus one and call it good. Every sport has a real playoff to determine the champion, not this dog and pony show.thre Dont worry full playoffs will happen some day and then we will all enjoy a great tournament and wonder why this wasnt done sooner. I am not arguing that more teams would be fun. I think the NCAA Tournament is the greatest sporting event of the year & 90% of that field has no chance of winning that. But if your looking for a true National Champion, you really only need 4 teams. Also, football is a bit different with the wear & tear on the players. Like Bill in NYC said, it is a lot too ask these kids to extend the season like that. Say if you had an 8 team playoff right now with the Power 5 getting their champ in + 3 wildcards it would look something like this: Lsu vs Notre Dame; Ohio ST vs Georgia, Clemson vs Alabama & OU vs Oregon. That would be fun, no denying it, I am just not sure it is practical. Quote

They aren’t there to relieve your boredom and lack of useful imagination by playing more and more pointless games Universities are about making money. You mean pointless bowl games, yeah those Tropical Smoothie Café Frisco Bowls are fun to watch, takes real imagination to put those together. Edited December 11, 2019 by Buffalo Barbarian Quote
