it should've always been P5 conference winners with 3 at large. if it were done today:



1 - Bama/FL winner
2 - ND/Clem winner
3 - OSU/NW winner
4 - USC/Oregon winner
5 - OU/ISU winner
6 - Coastal Car.
7 - Cincy
8 - BYU


get rid of rankings because we all know they're subjective and bias based on this weeks rankings. MAKE IT HAPPEN.



No this is stupid because Bama losing a close game to Florida still deserves an at-large over Coastal frickin' Carolina.

Period.

You want to reward conference champs and then get the 3 best remaining teams -

Use what I wrote above:

- 5 P5 conference champs
- 3 at-larges chosen by BCS
- Ranked 1-8 by BCS
- Top 4 get home games on NYE and NYD
- Remaining 4 play in the rotating bowl system we have now for the CFP

It would put A&M and Notre Dame in if they lost to Clemson. I'd have to look at others in the BCS rankings to put it all together but something like:

1. Bama
2. Ohio State
3. Clemson
4. A&M
5. Notre Dame
6. Cincinnati
7. Indiana
8. Georgia

Teams are limping to the finish line as it is. How many games is too many?

You'd have to cut games out of the regular season. And that would hurt everyone who DOESN'T make the playoffs.

4 is fine. Tell me a team below that that would have had a chance.

16 is too many
4 is not enough
6 with #1 & #2 getting byes is good
8 is good also
I prefer 8.
