No. If the point is to crown "the best team" 16 is way too many. Maybe 6, but not 16.

As far as all 5 conference champions getting an automatic berth, be careful what you wish for. Wisconsin would have been in last year. Yes, a team that went 7-5 (4-4) would have been in.

The whole idea of a large football playoff comes from the belief that the football playoffs would be like the basketball playoffs and some team from a shite conference could legitimately be a top four team. I don't think that's the case in football.

At least not today.

They may have been in, but they wouldn't have won another game.

This format gives teams something to play for in week 12.

1 or 2 is usually all you need
4 covers the exceptions

Anything more than 4 and it just sucks. College basketball has totally devalued the regular season and attendance / viewers are off and falling. Devalue the regular season and you crap it all up.

That would be good news for the SEC rep.

One less good/great team to get through to win the crystal football.
