Maybe this is why the regarded committee should value teams during the regular season that, you know, actually proved they can beat a "playoff team."

 

And get rid of automatic handout spots.

Why? This year it would have resulted in Georgia, Indiana, Tech. Instead we get a bunch of teams that have already proven they don’t deserve to compete for a title. As long as humans are making the picks instead of it being decided by playing there will be problems

And no Ohio St., and Duke. Your idea is terrible and OP posts nursing pay stubs to the internet.

Who cares about no Ohio state? They could have won their conference. The argument against conference champions is that a bunch of teams deserve a second chance. No thanks. Win your games

It was hilarious for sure. I’m not sure the funny part was a lack of understanding on why you just had to post it.

Yeah fuck the 12 team PO format. 
 

Make it 16.  
 

this year's slate would be improved with Texas Notre Dame, BYU and just pick another fourth team. 

That "another fourth team" should be another ACC powerhouse. Fucking schooling the mighty SEC 

ACC! ACC! ACC!

It’s also screwed up that Ole Miss and Oregon get to play teams they’re both favored by double digits against for their first round matchups.

-17 and -21. Ole Miss should be playing a UVA team and a -7 point favorite at home, with Tulane at Oregon and a -15+ dog. Weird ACC year. But the G5 experiment should end if they aren’t in the Top 12. Only a team like Boise would be likely to do that. Absent that, ND and Texas should be the back-fillers moving forward.

I think this is a fun one to show. If your goal is determining who is a champion from historical priors, 4 teams in contention is a solid cutoff.  6 is reasonable and is more commercial.  Beyond that it's a statistical improbability and not worth consideration.

Notes:

-numbers are from AI

-NCAAB doubles the conference count of other sporting leagues so seed count is repeated

-NFL is probably best comparison because its a single-game format and is literally the same sport

Fuck the G5. They are the reason people are bitching. If not for G5 Texas is possibly in and this dumb fucking thread doesn't exist.

* G6

The newfangled "Pac-12" doesn't belong with P4 teams, either.

So?  The regular season should matter.

I liked the BCS.

So you think mediots and members of a coaching staff is a better way to determine who is a champion over actually ya know, qualified teams getting to play for it.

Hate G5, hate the committee and its process, but hating the fact that P4 left a system that never worked and should have ended 50 years ago is really stupid. It's nearly as stupid as the way champions were determined.

You'll get no argument from me. The ACC is on the edge too.

The G6 absolutely belongs up and until the moment the power conferences stop being bitches and split off into their own competition.

If you're going to claim to be running a playoff for a league, then every league member should have a path to winning the championship at the beginning of every season.

This format is giving us a first round full of JAGs

I realize they changed it up a bit this year but you do realize the first round last year gave us all four semi-finalists?

If you’re going to nix G5 then you need to remove them from FBS altogether and give them their own championship.  You can’t put them in the FBS and also delete any chance of ever winning it. 

The remaining conferences should be capped at 8 or 9 teams.  You want to bring someone new in, you must kick someone out. That relegated team has to find a new conference.  Every team in every conference plays every other team in conference.m. Similar strength of schedule throughout each conference. However many conferences we have is how many playoff teams we have. Conference winners make the playoffs. Nobody else does.

This. If your argument is “eye test” then you have a flawed system. 
 

And it was mentioned up thread but the problem is the current conference alignments allow for wildly disparate schedules. 
 

This isn’t that hard but when you have 130+ institutions all looking out for themselves only, you get this mess.

should be top 16 flat.  no auto qualification.  if g5 team is top 16 they are in.  if five are top 16 they are all in.

 

that way the current versions of best 2000s bosie state, utahs, and tcus would still make it, which we all want
