Iggles_Phan Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Just now, 315Eagles said: It would be hard to go by strictly record because you have a million teams in college and only 4 spots to choose. Thats why you have to consider the conference you play in, strength of schedule, top 25 wins, etc. Not at all. They are the ones who limited the thing to 4 spots... or in years gone by... to 2 teams and the weird BCS nonsense. And yet... FCS, D2 and D3 schools have been able to have a 16 team tournament, based purely on records and never have the controversy the D1 schools have. The NCAA created the problem they have, and yet they have an easy solution with the lower levels... If its about the 'Power 5' conferences.. a 16 team tournament is simply the top 3 teams from those 5 conferences and one 'at-large' wild card. BUT... there are other schools in D-1 that aren't Power 5. So, how do we mix them in? There's AAC, Mid-American, Conference USA, Mountain West, and SunBelt... plus the Independents. So, you make it simpler... Conference winner from ALL - TEN conferences gets in automatic bid. 5 more spots goes to the #2 team in each of the Power 5 conferences. And the final spot goes to the Independent (aka, Notre Dame, basically) if they win 10 or 11 games (depending on how they want to couch the decision... and if not, it goes to the at-large team from any D1 conference with the next highest record.... with tie breakers like, SOS (based on record), SOV, etc. The tournament starts second weekend of December... third weekend of December (gets you down to 4)... and the 'bowl games' for other teams fill in the next week (which is usually Christmas week, as it normally would be)... and the 'top independent bowls' (Gator, Peach, etc.) can claim teams for 'consolation games' for New Years' Eve. And the two playoff matchups go to New Years Day. Final matchup lands as usual the week after that. The 'bye' week that's built in to that schedule gives the top 4 teams time to get ready for the big matchup... And you get a chance to see the top players from the smaller conference playing against the top players from the Power 5 in those early rounds of the tournament. And money to be made for EVERYONE. (You could even move the whole tournament schedule up a week, by having the conferences eliminate the conference championship games (since the top 2 make the playoffs anyway.). That would give an extra week to organize the consolation bowls (which is what they are anyway even now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be an easy win for FSU. (sarcasm) I mentioned this last night. The committee should hope Florida state plays Georgia in a bowl game. Cause if Georgia does what most people expect it would help them optically in their decision. Again whether right or wrong but most people would say look and use it to justify.

Frankly he’s better than any backup tight end we have. I’d argue he might be better as a 4th option than quez, julio or Oz at this stage. Oz is about the only one i could argue and say is better as a 4th option (with goedert back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
