There's a reason why every other collegiate sport has a playoff and there's a reason why D1 football doesn't.




The only difference between the football playoffs and the basketball playoffs is that 60 more teams get in the basketball playoffs. Every year, basketball teams get screwed. Certain conferences are deemed to be better conferences; certain wins are deemed to be better wins.

Penn State was the #8 team in the Big Ten and had a .500 record. And they got a spot in the playoffs.

At least a third of the teams that get in the NCAA basketball tournament have no business being in the playoffs...the occasional upset not withstanding. Penn State was the definition of mediocre in their conference. WTF???

Your team has played in two championship games since 2010. You call that crumbs?

Is there ever a debate over who the eventual champion is? Not in my lifetime. It's won on the court and not in a brokered deal from a committee.

Yep. Considering the number of times USC, Bama, Notre Dame and alike have gotten favored over the years. It's time for this system to go. Can't wait to see it gone.
