What benefit does a 10-3 Mizzou bring to the dynamic?

A 10-3 Georgia Tech?

    Save your bitching until 2025. That's when the current model of the playoffs will expire, unless ESPN wants to back out of its TV rights and $7.3 billion deal.

    16 us too many. Eight would be okay, but I think four will work.

    NFL: 12 out of 32 make the playoffs (37.5%)
    D1AA: 24 out of 121 make the playoffs (19.8%)
    D2: 24 out of 167 make the playoffs (14.4%)
    D3: 32 out of 242 make the playoffs (13.2%)
    NAIA: 16 out of 89 make the playoffs (18%)

    D1A has 125 teams. What's the right number?

    8 teams would be 6.4%
    16 teams would be 12.8%
    24 teams would be 19.2%
    32 teams would be 25.6%

    In my opinion, 16 is perfect. Power 5 Champs + 11 at large teams. Seed it out 1-16. Higher seed at home. Conference championship games first Saturday of December. No playoff bye weeks. Jump right into the playoffs the next week. Championship game at a pre-determined site the first Saturday of January.

    Bowl games go the way of the fucking dinosaurs.

    Fuck this, if I wanted to watch an over populated playoff I'd watch the pros. College football doesn't need to ape the NFL.

    LOL at counting 125 teams in FCS. There are only about 70 40 that should count.
    I would argue any given year only 20 teams matter.

    On average, 3 from each conference make some noise ... then there is typically one non-power 5 member.

    The regular season and conference championship sort those 20 out.

    8 is debatable, I stick to 6 ...

    The idea of four is growing on me. Everything gets settled within the course of 8 days. Great build up and drama.

    Getting back to January 1 is the best part. By the time the BCS game was played the Masters pre game show was on
    And the natty game is being played even later now.

    1. 16 team playoff
    2. No bowls
    3. Kick about 30 teams out of D-1A
    4. Promotion/relegation
    5. Profit

    30?

    About 80 need to be booted.

    UAB at least selectively Darwined themselves out of the system.

    Troy, Idaho, et. al. Should follow suit
