Crazy upsets in football playoff won’t happen as often
You can find five jokers who can ball. If one of those guys is elite, you have a puncher's chance on a given night. If two are elite, you can make a run.
Football needs a total of about 35 players and coaches to compete at a high level.
The odds of a 16-seed Sam Houston State beating Georgia or Alabama (or Kentucky, for that matter) are extremely remote, if not statistically impossible.

This pretty much nails it.
Upsets in the football playoff won't even feel like huge upsets. Last year, UGA as a 6 seed might have won the playoff... but would UGA beating Michigan really feel like much of an upset?

With March madness, loads of people that have zero interest in college basketball during the regular season fill out brackets left and right, creating an industry in and of itself. I guess my question is: Do we see the same thing with CFP?
