Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Ojo Rojo replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
I disagree. I think having the G5 with its own set of playoffs and a chance to be national champion would actually increase interest in those schools' football programs. It might even be a large revenue generator. They are already second class citizens in the college football world. I'm not trying to be insulting. I'm just really tired of pretending that Wyoming, Troy and Bowling Green are in the same ballpark at Tennessee, Ohio State and USC. -

Yes, but football ain't basketball. Much easier for an upset in basketball. How many G5 upsets of major P4 schools have there been in the last 10, 20 years. I remember Michigan/App. St. and Aggy/UL Ragin' Cajuns. It's pretty damned rare. -

So you're saying that giving G5 conference winners would eventually strengthen all G5 rosters and eventually put them on the same, or at least a closer level, to the P4 schools. That would take a long time and I still think it would be very, very unlikely. There are 136 teams. There's only talent enough now to have maybe, maybe 30 teams with any kind of realistic shot at a championship in any given year. No level of dilution is going to create parity for 136 teams. However, 7 equal 10-team divisions probably would strengthen the rosters of the other P4 schools... -

It wouldn't take relegation. As I said upthread - there are 70 teams in P4 + ND, Oregon St. and Washington St. It's not that hard, actually, to construct 7 10-team regional conferences that are roughly equal in terms of the quality of teams. You have to have scheduling parity. Realignment can accomplish that. -

So why do FCS schools have football if it's such a grim prospect? Also, I'm not suggesting that P4 schools be forbidden from playing G5 schools, just that they are in separate divisions and have a separate playoff system. They can still get their pay games to be slaughtered. I am suggesting that P4 schools shouldn't be allowed to schedule FCS schools. Lastly, with their own playoff they would then have those playoff games and potential for a national championship as incentives they don't currently have as well as the revenue that would go with it. -

It's fucking it up for any bubble team. What does the G5 add to the sport's health? I'm not suggesting the G5 give up their football programs; I'm saying they need their own division. It's de facto the way it is already except they don't have a prayer of making the playoffs or winning a championship. Under the current system, you could absolutely go undefeated and not be in the playoff. See UCF 2017. Agree to disagree about auto bids for the winner of the G5 conferences. You would then have 11 of the best teams in the country (assuming the P4 conference winners were the highest ranked) and 5 scrubs. What good is that? -

What? The G5 auto bid is part of what is fucking everything up. Why should an obviously inferior team make the 12 team playoff when it's supposed to be the 12 best teams? If the FCS went away, does that damage the P4 and G5 teams? Other than taking away lambs for the slaughter, absolutely not. The G5 needs to be a separate division with their own playoffs and national champion. That would add a level of opportunity and excitement that they don't currently have. I would think it would attract more people watching and participating, not fewer. The needs and scale of the P4 and G5 are too different to be lumped together. That's also part of the problem - the current playoff system is a one size fits none solution. -

Ole Miss realized that they might miss the playoff without any offensive coaches left. Woopsie! -

One national signing day the second Friday in February. No early enrollees. Schools can't talk to coaches until after that coach's team's season is over. Portal is open March 1st-June 1st. Spring practices moved to start second Monday of June. -
Ah, Ms. Danzig for me.

This is what it should be if ranking the 12 best teams: 1. Ohio State 2. Georgia 3. Indiana 4. Oregon 5. Texas 6. Alabama 7. Oklahoma 8. Texas A&M 9. Texas Tech 10. Miami 11. Notre Dame 12. OIe MIss 13. Vanderbilt 14. BYU 15. Utah -
I think it should happen if for no other reason that to hasten the blowing up of the whole fucked up system.

Rankings, in general, are stupid. They are also a criminally negligent way to pick playoff teams and national champions. Fucking UIL does a 1000% better job than whoever is running college football. There are 70 teams in the P4 plus ND, Oregon St. and Washington St. 7 10-team regional roughly equally strong divisions, regular season is 9 division games plus 3 out of division games that cannot be against teams below the second division (G5), top two from each division make the playoffs automatically, 2 at large spots for good teams that are third in their divisions. The two at large spots are determined by the highest ranked non-top 2 teams, thus preserving the polls for the limited purpose of picking the last two in and all the debate and shit surrounding that for those sickos who like it. $20M payroll cap for every team that increases 5-10% every year, NIL unlimited, but strictly enforced - has to be legitimate value received. Penalty for NIL violation is automatic forfeiture of postseason. The revenue sharing part would be the hardest. It's either a graduated payout with the best teams getting a larger share or all 70 teams get an equal distribution. I would probably do equal payments with fairly large bonuses for making the playoffs and winning at each round. The best teams will make the playoffs more often and have more revenue that way. One national signing day the second Friday in February. No early enrollees. Schools can't talk to coaches until after that coach's team's season is over. Portal is open March 1st-June 1st. Pick it apart. -
