Wait until it goes to 24 teams. No way all the AD's on the selection committee could watch even 25% of the games.

Is that this season or in 2027?

The Next Round
@NextRoundLive

What would it look like long term if there were a 24-team CFB Playoff?

*IF* the CFP had been 24 teams from the start in 2014, 80 different teams would've made an appearance over the last 12 seasons.

I have already lost a lot of interest in cfb. If they do go to 24 I am out.

At least we still have baseball.

Ole Miss with 6 playoff appearances and LSU with 8. #Just different.

I will still watch but significantly less. It will take marquee matchups and I’ll tune in only if Texas is in the final 8.

Only way to fight this is for us to stop watching at a serious clip

People think it’s going to include more lower tier teams …. It will not because if they are teams with 3-4 losses in sec it will override any 2 loss non power four team. What we are gojng to get is more big ten and sec teams making the playoffs . We are going to have so many conference on conference matchups it’s like why the frick do we even call it a playoff ? Notice how the big ten never has to play the other top big tens till the last few rounds. The big 10 bracket has really been set up well the last for years for the playoff .

Everyone complains about every playoff selection.

No one watches all the games in any sport.

That's fair, but i still think it is better than these crappy little bowl games where all the top players opt out.

About one third of Power 4 teams would make it ever year. It's complete bullshite.
