re: 247's Josh Pate with a hot take on a potential 8-team College Football Playoff

We've already seen that the playoff gives teams more room to handle a loss, thus resulting in teams scheduling more big OOC games. Making OOC games mean less would just increase the willingness of teams to schedule even more big OOC games

If you lose the OOC game, you have to run the table on the rest. You can lose a conference game and get in, lose a conference and OOC game? You’re in big trouble.
