I for selfish reasons would love to see a Playoff of VT, Tennessee, Wiscy, ASU. Maroon, Orange, Red, and Yellow. The colors of fall would work great to cap off a season.

I'd love to see a mining school playoff. VT-penn state-utah-arizona. Idaho get the G5 ny6 spot. Wvu and Kentucky get left in the cold. Let's celebrate my weird little major.

Do we usually have a predictions thread, or do we just post them in here? I can't remember... Regardless, I think it's time for predictions.

Actually Rutgers should be in every title game. I think Indiana is going to fall off a cliff in be the worst team in the East, and Rutgers will beat some teams from the West.

Am I the only person who isn't counting pre-playoff championships? FSU actually has zero and the SEC is on equal footing with the Big Ten and the ACC imo

Long term that will probably be where people start counting them. The previous systems were arbitrary and stupid, that's why they are gone. (and money.) If they add teams to the playoff, it will make the championships won in the early playoffs mean less.

I'm sure there were bowl people in school presidents' ears constantly making up bullshit about how a playoff wouldn't make them more money, but come on. It's been obvious for like 20 years a playoff would be a license to print money.

That's because the other divisions play fewer regular season games. FBS will never cut down on those, because of money. So the argument about "too many games" w/r/t expanding the playoffs for FBS is entirely valid.
