The playoff won’t fix anything. it will probably make it worse. people just aren’t thinking this through.

prediction: this time next year, people will be screaming about the unfairness of the playoff selection process. teams 5, 6, and 7 will have a legitimate gripe.

“the BCS did everything it was intended to do and then some.”

Made lots of people lots of money and then some, at the expense of true competition.

The new “playoff” should be the top eight, not four.

Why is college football being ruled by people who hate college football? If you like professional football, watch it. Instead, they decided to destroy college football.

Need a 24 team playoff....FCS has 20 teams in theirs, and has no problems with it

A large playoff would bring in more $$$ for the schools. And better TV ratings

The bowl system is a joke....only ESPN and the bowl hosts make money. If you wonder why there are 35 bowl games...because they can have 35 bowl games

The NCAA Basketball tourney is quite exciting with 68 teams....24 for football would work

I don’t like the playoff system for one reason. It adds an extra game to the mix and college football players are already stretched to limit (workouts, study, how to handle the press, and alumni that tempt poor players). Enough is enough. This is not pro football, this is for most of them just kids trying to get a hard fought education.
