2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

They expanded Bowls back in the 70's for the same reason.

It's entertainment. People want more of it, not less.

They will make the field bigger, give all the little boys a seat at the table for a proper 1st round exit and then still leave room for the interesting teams from the big boy league(s) just like every other major professional sport does with wild cards.

No one is going back to division/conference winners only in any sport.
Exactly. Follow the money.

It's never really been about finding a "true" National Champion.

I think I'm legally required, or something. :shrug:

Re-read the Bible, man! It’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure the first book has a “how-to” manual on getting rid of annoying brothers. At least that’s what I remember of it.

Well, I hate the fact that it's 12 teams, in general. But if we're including 12 teams, we should be looking at champions, not also-rans. We took a P5 argument (5 champions for 4 spots) and expanded it 3 fold for no reason. Should have just went to 6 teams, IMO. 5 Champs, 1 "best of the rest".
