4 system playoff needs to go to 8

Forget the playoff. Blow up conferences, combine FCS and FBS, and go to a promotion / relegation system. Top 14 team in the country are in the Premier League, next 14 teams are in the American League, then you go down to South 1, East 1, Midwest 1, West 1, then South 2... etc. To win the Premier League, you would have to play 13 of the best teams in the country.

Regional rivalries are one of the greatest things about college football. This system would largely eliminate that, at least at the highest level.
 
I agree, but the concept is solid. Instead of having multiple leagues, just have two as we do now and then divide them up by regions and have those regions match in both leagues. Every year, the bottom 10% of each region in the upper league will be relegated to the lower league and the top 10% from the lower league will be promoted to the upper league. Since conferences will be completely determined by location, the issue of p5 vs g5 is irrelevant.

After the regular season, have a playoff between the regional champions and a set number of at large teams.

More is better for Tech. We aren't going to crack the top 4, like ever.... I could see us putting up a 2009 (ACC champ) or 2014 caliber season and sneaking in on the back end of 8.

We could crack the top 4. Just gotta be 12-1 or better ACC champs. If we couldn't do that, we probably couldn't win 3 playoff games, either.
 
no matter how many teams you allow in, any "selection committee" used to pick at-large teams, will continue to have an underlying agenda.
the ncaa has proven every year since the advent of the bcs, that its an agenda driven organization.
 
Everyone here wanting to expand is so clueless. Honestly only 3 teams deserved to be in this year. georgia,OU, and Clemson

The real solution is only three teams decided by committee. We're all so dumb. Glad you're here to set us straight.

Why would you want 8 when there weren't 4 or 5 teams that deserved to be in the playoffs? It makes no sense
 
I imagine that’s not the reason you were banned considering we’ve never been annual contenders, at least not in several decades.
Well, that was the part underlined. It could also have been the part where I said that the feces breath dawgs were annual contenders.
