Havent they already effectively done that by agreeing to the current 2-team, one game playoff system? Also, I think that they can be bribed......
Please read my post more carefully, instead of just looking at the playoff bracket I posted. Here is the pertinent part that you apparently...
I like the way you think! (except it's "moot", not "mute"! :-))
I only used the Sun Belt because I happened to see that they will likely produce a conference champ with 5 or more losses, but I feel the same...
It does make a lot of sense logically to have the teams organized in a more balanced fashion. However, I just don't see that happening - I don't...
You may be right - haven't seen or heard of any financial studies to know if a hypothetical college system that would send teams to the big BCS...
Very valid point... some fan bases would be able to travel well to two big games, while others wouldn't. Plus this system would only give the...
For many people, the flaws of the current ranking system are exacerbated by the fact that out of 120+ teams, only 2 teams are able to play for the...
I think that they could take TCU without being mandated to do so, and if they did that, it would satisfy their agreement to take a non-AQ team.
My understanding is that the Rose Bowl MUST take a non-AQ team - they don't have the option to pick which year. (They only "must" if a non-AQ...
That is an important thing to consider for sure. If you look at the hypothetical 8-team bracket I posted, you will see that the first round games...
That may very well be the case. I wonder if a "consolation prize" could be arranged for any conference champion that currently would get a BCS...
A classic 16-team playoff, as you propose, is something I've also been a proponent of. However, does a 3 or 4 loss team deserve it simply by...
If there was an 8-team playoff, AND the current BCS rankings were used, AND the current rankings remain unchanged at the end of the season, here's...
It does. You are focusing on one specific season, with teams still having one or two games remaining. I say 4 teams are better because a team...
I think the thing that you're pointing out - that a 4-team playoff isn't a completely unbiased, perfect system - is something that no one is...
Duplicate topic... http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/103385-parking-2011-a.html
Sorry - I shouldn't have quoted that line of yours about removing all bias. That's not really my personal goal - I'll settle for a better system....
I disagree. Going from 2 teams to 4 teams means 2 additional teams get a chance. Going to 8 teams means that 6 additional teams get a chance. I...
A playoff system will bring in more revenue (even the former Big Ten commissioner admitted in front of a congressional committee that a playoff...
