Let's face reality. Trying to configure a perfect or even better playoff system is not likely to achieve the end. Even in a field of 64 plus in the NCAA basketball system, teams feel that they got shanked. Same here. I am ready to return to the bowl system with one change-- untie the bowls from conference ties. Teams and bowls compete to get the best games.

Yes, let's destroy the only sport where the regular season really matters. By all means let's emulate the NFL or NBA where the regular season has as much excitement as a dentist's convention.

What's the point of expanding them? There are only two good enough teams this year.

What about next year and then after that?

I’m not necessarily in favor of expansion, but this isn’t a great argument. We’ve had a few four seeds win the CFP

The Bowl games will adapt by moving to the BEGINNING of the season.

-5 power 5 champs (unless not ranked in top 25) -2 at large -highest ranked mid major if in top 20

No shite. It's obvious to everyone. Quibble about the details. The six P6 champions (if they're ranked in the Top 10). The highest ranked G5 team and two at large selections. The lowest seeded teams have a play-in game for the final 8.

There are only five Power 5 conferences, not six. So you would not need to play-in game. If you are a fan of the AAC and are considering it as a Power conference I disagree, but I am not here to argue the point. But in that case you should say highest ranked G4 team.

Not really. There's rarely more than 3 teams who have a claim to #1. This year is no exception. We can argue over Florida, aggy, and OSU on who should be #4 but no one honestly thinks any of those teams could stay on the same field as clemson and Bama right now
