16 teams is overkill, IMO. I’m down with 8.

I've been good with 8 forever, but not anymore. Just apply that to this year and tell me if it would work.

It wouldn't.

I disagree. 11 conference champs plus the next 5 best teams. Let's set a bar for conference champs to meet for a qualifier. (To prevent the 6-6 conference champs) If a conference champ doesn't make it, it would be another at large place.

8 games week 1
4 games week 2
2 games week 3
Championship game week 4

Start Jan 1.

8 is the correct number. Take the 5 “Power 5” Champs and 3 Wild Card picks.

Thats 17 game for the Championship teams.

That's a lot for college kids.

If they did go to 16, they might as well get rid of Conf champions.

8 would be best. The #8 team isn't going to win, but at least the Cincy's and Coastals would get a fair shake.

Nailed it. 8: 5 power 5 champs and the next 3 highest ranked teams.

8 is the sweet spot.
