2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

My $.02 - stop playing around with it. Let it run, as is, for a couple of years and then adjust.

The flaws in the BCS became evident after 3-4 years. Same for the 4 team CFB.
Let the current structure breathe a bit. Then adjust in say - 2028 or beyond.


Too soon to start monkeying around with something so new.
In many cases this might be mistaken for a thoughtful, reserved approach

The trouble is, the exact problem exhibited in year one is exactly what people said would be the problem as soon as the format was announced

This is like when a group of guys are working on an engine and the biggest guy wants to advance the valve timing and the actual mechanic in the group says, “if you advance it that much it’ll destroy the engine”. The engine starts and is immediately blown, but the big guy, with a broken valve stem embedded in his forehead, says, “let it run fer abit’n see if it don’t smooth out”

Spoken like somebody from the conference that can afford to let a format dick around for several years before making a change. Some teams don't have the luxury of being the guinea pig.
