    Scrap the whole system. Go with 8 divisions of 10 and have a 16 team playoff (or some variation of this). Promotion and relegation. No more bowls at all.

    Or just go back to the way things used to be and scrap the playoff completely.

    It's embarrassing that it's gotten this far.

    I would jizz for promotion and relegation, bring some fear back into these soft fucks.
    This is how I feel about Asians.

    Bowl games got really stupid about ten years ago when a lot of .500 teams and midmajor trash qualified. It was oversaturated, but still reasonable and most were watchable until then. I don't really get how the playoff changed things.

    I get the impression you're one of those settle it on the field guys which I understand. You cite UW 1984+1991 and based on what we've experienced we would have historically greatly benefited from playing BYU and Miami. I just don't think that even now with a top 4 that we really capture the real possibilities for best team. As noted in other threads I think scrap it all and go back to the good old days. Argue about it and let people claim what they claim. The thing is I don't think playoffs have changed bowls - they've just changed how people view national champions. There is this impression of a true champion when it isn't. Say Bama wins it all this year and you don't have a gripe. It makes sense. Clearly there are a lot of scenarios in any number of years (any Big 12 fan will cite last year) where this all breaks down and there is still controversy but and a make-believe champion.

    I miss the days when Michigan could go 50-4-1 over 5 years ... and only qualify for one bowl game in that stretch.

    Kick out the 2 worst teams to lower divisions and promote 2 in the lower divisions to Div 1.

    The more bowls the better. 20 straight days of fucking football all day long to drink to, and you're complaining... The whole point is to make fun of all the teams playing in shit tier bowls and troll their fag fans on social media.

    You make the most compelling argument to date.
