    Is Franklin a brother tho?

    Every time I look at him he looks like a different race. He was puerto rican the last time I saw him.

    I think only conference winners should make it the playoffs

    It makes the most sense.

    There are 5 "Major" conferences though. 6 if you wanna count the AAC.

    Most conference winners have at least 2 losses around this time. So only two or three will have a legit reasoning. The MAC, AAC, Conf USA, Sun Belt, Mountain West, BYU and Notre Dame need to get there resume up before they come with the BS.

    I'm cool with the "playoff" system. It's a good middle ground for having the championship won on the field while not taking away from the "playoff" atmosphere that college football has throughout the season because of the pressure to win out.

    As fun as "march madness" is -- it actually takes away from the College bball regular season. I have to force myself to watch a non-OU college bball game. And I hardly ever check the rankings during the season.

    You win your conference and you're one of the top 4 conference champs = You got a shot. Simple.

    Les Miles learned a expensive lesson today. You dont want a player but that player will get you other players. Just take that player and process him later.

    Bama offered Cameron Sims, LSU didnt. Now Bama has Sims(maybe fifth best WR in Louisiana), CRob (best OL in America), and "Hootie" Jones (Best safety prospect in Louisiana). Remember LSU really need the last two positions. If they can get J. Adams out of Texas. Then they may get a better player. But CRob was a big need for LSU.

    I guess Les Miles didnt want to be like Dabo Sweeney when R. Nkemdechi got all his boys schollies and then dipped to Ole Miss.

    B/c I'm tired of seein teams like Connecticut and Lousville's ? ass squads play meaningful games just because.

    To be totally honest, people ? on my Buckeyes for playing a wack schedule, but look at Florida State's schedule! They're only #1, because their average margin of victory is over 40ppg, compared to my Buckeyes' 27.9ppg average margin of victory. Our schedule was tougher than theirs!

    Deabatable re: the schedule, but 1) At LEAST FSU had Clemson as a legit major win, and 2) FSU has been unfukwitable.

    Whereas OSU barely beat Mich, allowed a ton of points and yards to Illinois, and my goodness just look back at their "moment" game at Northwestern, which at the time was hyped up (even tho NW was only ranked #11). embarassing.

    its all about that $$$$ at the end of the day...they disguise it in the form of "too many games will interfere with academic schedule blah blah blah..."

    dont seem to affect the FCS division...thier academic calenders acant vary that much...

    IMO i think a full playoff would actually generate more revenue....and they could still include thier precious traditional bowls...

    Real ? and i was first for an 8 team playoff but honestly i think its good at 4 because this thread wouldn't be half as long if 8 or 16 teams made the playoffs. The conteversy still needs to be there otherwise like you said its gunna turn into march madness where hella mediocre teams are going to get in ruining allot of the regular season.
