... by a vastly inferior opponent ...

Because these teams make us feel good but lo ... they're not as good as we thought ..

Admit it. The "playoffs" idea is severely flawed.

Honestly, 4 was fine. At most 8. 12 is too many.

Lol, really? People saying they wish Army could make the playoffs ain't the same as saying they should be in.

Take a nap my brother. Nobody made a case for Army to be in the playoffs.

Wrong. Plenty did. And you know it. And just as bad, they made cases for 4 of the teams in the playoffs now.

You’ll never know if a team is overrated until they play the game. We have all seen ridiculous upsets through the years. HBCU Howard beating UNLV as +45.5 underdogs. Stanford over USC as a +42 dog. Buster Douglas over Mike Tyson as a 42 to 1 dog. App State beat Michigan as +33 point dogs.

Hell, even Oklahoma beat, hmmm, who did they beat? I forgot but they were huge dogs this season and mopped the floor with a powerhouse team that only scored 3 points total. A team their fans begged to be in the playoffs.

4 teams was not fine. Several teams had legitimate gripes. 6 to 8 is probably the ideal number but who doesn’t want to see more football? I’m all for that. I’ll watch a crap football game over most other sports. I love single elimination.

If you stay at 12, only guaranteed spots should go to conference champs only and one lottery pick team.

This year proved the conference champs guarantee is stupid.
