Would hate a system where a 11-1 SEC that lost a close SECCG sat out to allow a participation trophy to a Toledo type team that would otherwise get steam rolled by a power conference team.

Participation trophies are for losers. If that's all you want for your team, you deserve to sit at home.

Steamrolling Toledo is the reward top teams get in the semis. If your team didn't win their conference, they're not a top team.

When are people finally going to give up on having opinion polls determine who our champions are? I thought the play offs were supposed to get us there. But it looks like people just want mulligans everywhere. That's pussy-assed loser bullshite.

Win and advance. Lose and go home. That's the American way.

Too bad we can't have this conversation face to face, I am losing some of your points, as I see it, "it is a lose and go home", starts at the conference level, essentially these are mini playoffs if you will. There is no second bite at the apple, one and done or go on.

No so?

WT- If I understand you, you are OK with the 8 Conference Champions, it is the addition of the 4 At Large that you think is watering down the playoffs, correct?
