24-team playoff > 4-team playoff
i hope D1 gets there some day. 24 team would be awesome. all the 9+ win teams pretty much would be in the race, althought the officiating would be gawdawful.

Maybe just 16. I could deal with that.

Great! Always glad when Jim Tressel's team gets beat!
If I'm going to cheer players and coaches in victory, I damn sure ought to be man enough to stand with them in defeat.

For those wanting a similar playoff are you willing to give up a regurgitation season game and all the bowls?
People ask me what I do in winter when there is no baseball.  I will tell you what I do. I stare out the window, and I wait for spring.

True. If that's the case we wouldn't have made the NCAA tourney in a while.

If top 24 made the playoffs, I would be willing to give up all the other stuff, mainly because Arkansas would likely be in at least 3 out of every 5 years.

curious. Wha polls are you seeing that have had the hogs ranked in the top 24 three of the last five years?
This is fun, isn't it.

Not saying the last 5 years. Just saying around 50-60% of the time overall.

I'd be happy to give up that regurgitation game against Mizzou.

Yep
Quote from: BearsBisonsBoars on January 18, 2016, 11:06:54 pm. The four team playoff is still opinion. Or do you really think MSU was really the fourth best team in CFB?
You miss the boat.  A four team playoff is a championship.  A championship produces... a champion. You seem to be looking for the "best" team.  The "best" doesn't exist. Best does not equal champion.  Best is a myth.
Opinion polls produce... opinions.

Most bowls have been made irrelevant anyway. Maybe I'm just getting old but I had no desire to watch any bowl games this year other than the Hogs and the Bama game.

I grew up near Youngstown and had many friends who went there so I was rooting for them.  James Madison was definitely the better team.  They deserved to win.

Considering that both the Football Championhip Subdivision and the Football Bowl Subdivision both now have playoff championships, can we get back to 1A and 1AA or something else that makes more sense?  Along with the Legends and Leaders crap the Big 10 initially went with, that's one of my more hated division terminology changes of recent years.
