re: Playoff Expansion

My take from the “Alliance’s” tet a’ tet is that a strategy to compete with the SEC for viewers is vital. There may have been other subjects discussed but they apparently didn’t warrant any actions be taken.

So I see them continuing to schedule SEC teams and also pairing their best teams against each other to garner week-to-week television appeal. That’s smart IMO. I think they understand that the SEC product has become so strong that they need to step up their game if they’re going to compete.

I also think they’ll vote to expand the playoff so that the PAC won’t be frozen out every year. They see the value of “last year’s playoff teams facing each other in this year’s regular season games” for TV appeal.
