Alayoff system will generate so much more interest in College football. As it is now, outside of the true followers, no one knows how the hell a champion gets named (notice I didn’t say awarded). Maybe 16 teams is too many, but an 8 team playoff is definitely the answer.

huh? That’s bonkers. College football does NOT suffer from a lack of interest. In fact, it may have just the opposite problem; ravenous, insatiable interest in the game is one of the things driving people to “improve” (translation: destroy) it.

Why would a playoff system generate more interest? We already have NFL, why make a second rate version. They are taking everything interesting about college football. It keeps getting more and more boring.

If they are going to go in this direction, why not get writers and script out all the results for the season in advance? After all, it’s a business, and to maximize profits, why allow actual “winning” and “losing” games, when those “plot lines” could be scripted for maximum profit?
