They just created the 6 team playoff. #6 Wisconsin would play AT #3 UGA. #5 tOSU would play AT #4 Bama. #1 Clemson and #2 Oklahoma would be waiting at the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl for the winners.
Which makes yesterday's Big 10 title game TOTALLY meaningless and nothing but an injury risk.......They just created the 6 team playoff. #6 Wisconsin would play AT #3 UGA. #5 tOSU would play AT #4 Bama. #1 Clemson and #2 Oklahoma would be waiting at the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl for the winners.
Yes, every conference now needs to go back to the drawing board and get rid of the geographic divisions and set up scheduling and seeding for conference teams such that the 2 best teams in the conference playoff for the championship if they are going to keep scheduling conference championship games. I have always thought a 6 team playoff was the best option and have the 2 playin games the week of Christmas. it increases the chance for all P5 conferences to be represented plus 1 at large team. That would be an awesome 3 weeks of football for sure.Which makes yesterday's Big 10 title game TOTALLY meaningless and nothing but an injury risk.......
wisconsin shouldnt be in anyones playoff with that marshmellow scheduleThey just created the 6 team playoff. #6 Wisconsin would play AT #3 UGA. #5 tOSU would play AT #4 Bama. #1 Clemson and #2 Oklahoma would be waiting at the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl for the winners.
So if a conference champ had 4 losses, they would be in simply for winning their conference. I thought a playoff was about having the best teams in.I just want a 6 team playoff, 5 conference champions and 1 at large.
this year would look like
Clemson - Bye
Alabama - Georgia
Ohio State - USC
Oklahoma - Bye
Playoff zombies love having automatic entrants. It takes that whole pesky thinking thing out of the equation. Besides, it's more inclusive and aren't we all about being inclusive now? Merit? Nah, that isn't so important, just be inclusive.So if a conference champ had 4 losses, they would be in simply for winning their conference. I thought a playoff was about having the best teams in.
I'd MUCH prefer going back to the TWO game "Playoff" even though it wouldn't favor Alabama in many years. But the reality is it made the REGULAR SEASON a whole lot more important.They just created the 6 team playoff. #6 Wisconsin would play AT #3 UGA. #5 tOSU would play AT #4 Bama. #1 Clemson and #2 Oklahoma would be waiting at the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl for the winners.
