The argument that the #5 team could have beaten the #1 team is a lot more compelling than the idea that the #9 team could. In my mind there is absolutely a line there somewhere. It's not about how many teams get to participate so much as making sure that the "best" teams who have a legitimate shot at winning get a chance to showcase that. I'm fine with 4, 6, or 8 team playoffs but anything beyond that seems pointless.An eight team playoff is a terrible idea. You will never remove all controversy or argument that the 5th or 9th or whateverth team should have gotten in over someone else.
Well you see, they made those decisions instead of somebody else.It's funny to me how the media could "know" that Syracuse (87), WVA (88), Texas A/M (92), WVA again (93), and Tulane (98) were NOT the best teams and deserved no consideration, but now they find it all difficult and confusing.

^ ThisNotre Dame is about to slip back into mediocrity, where they now belong.
The NCAA shouldn't force ND or any other team to join a conference...There will be howls when the SEC gets 3-4 teams in and the NCG ends up being a rematch. If they do, I hope to God that they will force all independents to join conferences, all conferences must have CG, reduce the regular season, and make it with a number of losses requirement (no 3-4 loss champions).

I DON'T WANT ND IN THE SEC. Let those Prima Donnas play in some other Power 5 Conference.There is no reason what so over for a 8 team playoff, OP. Notre Dame was exposed as a fraud, and if the rest of college football is going to play for an opportunity for a 13th game, that should be enough to put any team over an undefeated Notre Dame team. Not to mention the BCS would have gotten us to the same result as the playoffs got us too, with one less game. Realistically how many damn football games should these kids play?! Are we going to have a 16-0 national champion?! That’s a regular season of NFL ball, isn’t it? Notre Dame get thei .... together and join the SEC. then you can get into the playoffs again, but in 2012 the Irish lost their jocks against us, and this year they got handled by Clemson. Notre does NOT belong in post-season play.
Definitely pulling for LSU in this one, and I have a strong dislike for LSU (just as many of their fans have an equal or stronger dislike for us). In most years, I am not one of those "SEC! SEC! SEC!" guys. But I am just so tired of hearing it from other fan bases that I want to see some teams crushed by the guys we play regularly that are part of our "weak schedule." As much as I hate Auburn, I was actually smiling watching them put a beating on Purdue after all the crap I have heard from Ohio State fans (and I typically like OSU more than I really have reason to...I guess it is a respect for their old school mentality...not sure but I do like them more than I like most teams).If we lose to UCF, the demand for the 8 team will be even higher.

That's true but in the initial year of the CFP when we were the #1 seed we simply could have played #2 Oregon and probably won the title instead of having to play #4 Ohio State and losing, so the 4 team playoff helped us one season and hurt us another. Bottom line is I see no benefit thus far for Bama with 4 team playoff vs. BCS 2 team formula.If you go to two teams, Bama does not play for and win the title in 2017 as they were considered the fourth best team that year.
