CFB Playoffs

Well it’s officially official. Rose Bowl is in. Starting in 2024-2025. Never thought ide see the day…

I doubt anyone actually believed it would take multiple years for this to happen.

CMD has an asset to sell now. You sign up to help us win NC. Alabama, Texas, TOSU, LSU all have the same message. The playing field isn’t level but the crown has been lowered.

SBC should be in play now for that 5th or 6th top auto bid for the conference champion giving the SBC at least a shot at it.
I don't see the new BIG 12 being that great. I for sure don't see the new American Athletic being better than the new SBC. SBC champion has a legit shot at the playoff now.

Back in 2020 the pac 12 champ would have been on the outside looking in. The AAC(Cincy)and SBC(UL/Covid Car) champs would have gotten auto bids into the playoffs. I think 12 is a bit much and 8 would be great but it gives us the best shot at getting in. I think the setup isn’t very good with the NY6 bowls starting in the quarterfinals. Games should be played at higher seeded teams up until semis then have your bowl games.

A recipe for success . . . it will never happen . . .

Will SBC take the route that other conferences seem to be going and eliminating the championship games to avoid their best team getting upset and losing that playoff spot?

I hope not as an extra game vs a potential ranked opponent could only help with positioning.

Maybe some years but some it may not. For example let’s say Coastal was top G5 team and then losing to Troy would allow another conference to get the higher seed.

Let's suppose that they weren't but beating Troy gets them there. It can work both ways.

No conference is getting rid of their championship game. Too much money to be made. What they’re doing is just getting rid of divisions so the top 2 play in the game which brings in more viewers and more money.

Ahh ok got it. That makes more sense

This expansion is huge for us. We can now recruit to that.
