When the (4) team format was enacted, anyone that follows college football and those meaningless rankings that are posted every week knew this scenario was going to arise: This year the dilemma is deciding whether Oregon, Alabama, TCU FSU and now Ohio State should be thrown under the bus. We are right back where we started. It happened every year in the past when one or two teams didn't get (voted) into the Championship game. Does any one believe there isn't (8) teams that deserve at least a shot at the National Championship? As usual, the NCAA has caused the mess they now find themselves in. An (8)team play-off would have solve the problem.
well lets face it,this is all an experiment year as it is the first year of this change.i think 6 teams would have been good and this way baylor and ohio st would be those 2 other teams,but we have to live with it for this year and move forward as we go on,....everyone has valid points in this subject
This is just fine the way it is. Let's give it a few years. The fact is that there will NEVER be a 16 team playoff, and there is absolutely no chance of an 8 team playoff until the playing field is level. That means the Big 12 (who will get shut out this year) MUST expand to 12 teams and get a CC game, because the other 4 power conferences have already done so.
You got it....1st year experiment.....Soon,real soon...LOL.....I say it will be 6.....2 teams get a 1st round bye.....The 4 square off and they take it from their.
6 is the way to go.
1- Alabama
2-Oregon
3-Florida st
4- Mystery team is...................Drum Roll
