The logistics kill a sixteen team playoff. No one will know week to week where they will be playing. The teams/fans won’t be able to make travel arrangements. Won’t happen.

What could happen is an eight team playoff. Sixteen teams in four conferences with a championship game. Then the four teams advance, etc.

Besides there is no reason to include a bunch of teams with no chance of winning, ie, the mid-american, mountain west, etc.

Bullshiite, the MWC has a proven record of being giant killers. In 2008 everyone said Utah didn’t belong on the same field with Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. They are gonna get killed they said. Well lookie here..... Utah embarrased Saban’s boys in New Orleans. Boise St was told the same thing when they met Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl. Boise won. TCU did the same to to Wisconson in the Rose Bowl. I don’t buy the ESPN lie about Power 5 Conferences and The G5 Conferences. Phuck ESPN, they have ruined the game. They have their heads so far up the SEC’s azz I can see Lee Corso everytime Nick Saban opens his mouth.

The thing is, the more teams you include in a playoff, the harder it gets to separate the teams on the bubble.

You would think there’s a greater difference between the 4 and 5 teams then there would be between the 8 and 9, and 16 and 17 best teams.
