G5 Go out and start your own playoff Championship, Kannel and Brando heads blowing up

Or they could just schedule a good team once in a while.

I mean it would actually be a smart idea for the P5 and Group of five to split.

They have no business competing for the same national title.

Some of their conference commissioners have discussed the possibility. Even before all of this mess.

Right. This has been cussed and discussed for a while now, especially in the inner-circle of the conference commissioners. Many ADs, HCs and administrators are receptive. It's all about the $$$$.

I don't get the sudden outrage. We have all known good and fricking well that none of the G5 teams will not only never win a national title, they will never get a chance to compete for one either. The best they can hope for is to grow their brand and following big enough to attract some P5 suitors during conference expansion.

And we will know when college football is officially dead when they expand to an 8 team playoff in reaction to all this pissing and moaning. That Clemson and Ohio State fanbases seem to be leading the charge toward an 8 team playoff over the other "controversy" - Bama being in, leading to an all SEC title game - is fricking abhorrent.

They're actively rooting for the death of the regular season all because two teams that haven't played since 2015 are going to meet up in the national title game under a single conference banner. Nevermind that these are clearly the best 2 teams in college football this year. Nevermind that the storylines surrounding this game are intriguing. Nevermind that many of the players involved are going to spend the next decade starting in the NFL. It all says SEC so it's clearly time to destroy the sport.

As if 2 SEC teams wouldn't end up meeting in the finals of an 8 team playoff.

I'm actually all for cutting the G5 out of the FBS and having the P5 forming its own league within the FBS. Then treat the G5 like the English Premiere League in Britain. The teams that are worthy to be in a P5 conference move up while those P5 teams that exude consistent badness move down to G5.

We should do what Premier league soccer does. Best G5 school gets promoted and worst P5 demoted a year. Next year Tennessee would be in the Sunbelt.

If Arkansas moves down we can finally win that natty!!




Eh who am I kidding

I've been discussing this for years.

You're close, but it's a bit more complicated than that.

I am a college football guy, I attempt to watch any D2, IAA, NJCAA playoff game that is out there, I know my interest level would be raised much more if these minor bowl games at some implications to the next set of minor bowl games.

Every bowl game should matter. Read the link I posted for how to make that happen.
