NOW, can we find a way to eliminate the polls and the committees? Settle it on the field. Expand it, take in or totally eliminate conferences. Eliminate the beauty contest entirely. Either that or go back to the old bowl system, and make it a total beauty contest. This crap trying to paper over the flaws is stupid.

The ideal system would be one of the "Super League" proposals of around 70 teams, fit into neat geographic divisions of historic rivals, and an objective way to determine who does and doesn't move on to the playoffs, no more committee.

Somebody's gotta figure out how to make that attractive financially so that the conferences agree to merge into it.

This playoff is one the best things to happen to college football in a long time. I like it exactly at 12 because it makes the season matter.

You have to win or you're out.

However you're right. Boise State will be ranked around 10. But a number of 3 loss sec and B1G teams would whip them.

Im nit sure how you fix that other than requiring the G5s to play at least one, P4 team in a OOC game during the season.

Meh. A committee will get it about as right as any computer would. It really doesn’t matter much anyway. There’s only about 4 teams with a real chance to win it.

8 13-team conferences. 12 conference games. 4 post season tournaments. All 1’s play for NC. 2’s play each other in “bowl” game tournament. 3’s do the same and 4’s do the same. The rest start their breaks early. Who cares if the 5th best team in any conference doesn’t get a chance? They had a chance when they played their 12 game schedule throughout the season. Know it won’t happen but that’s how you remove rankings and such from the equation.
