Since when do you have a sport with 100+ teams playing in the same league where more than half of them know they have absolutely no shot at a national championship before the season even begins? Major college football is unlike any other sport in world in that there is no official championship for said sport. The championship of college football has evolved dramatically over the years. Up until the 1950s, despite the fact that the AP had been voting for well over a decade, there was no agreement on what a national championship was. Beginning with the establishment of the Coaches Poll in 1950, the waters began to get less muddled on that score, but it took over 80 years from that first game against Princeton and Rutgers in 1869 until there was some agreement on what a national championship even was in the sport.
D1 college football is screaming for a 16 or better yet 24 team playoff where every team has some chance at the championship day one. Some may have a very small chance, but still a chance.

No it's not. Just some of you fans are. The playoffs are fine at 4 teams. Everyone does not belong in the playoffs. It is supposed to be hard. If your team isn't good enough then get better, don't lower the bar.
