If Division Titles don't mean anything, then neither do divisions.

The problem with doing away with divisions is you have to come up with tiebreakers for the glut of 10-7 teams or whatever. If the two teams with the same record didn’t play or were 1-1, who are you taking for the last playoff spot? The tiebreakers like MOV or coin flips tend to piss people off whereas they more readily accept “won the NFC East” or whatever."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

I like divisions in the NFL and have no problem with the division winner getting a better seed than a team that didn't win its division that may have a better record . Winning your division (or conference in college) should mean something. It does in the NFL.Originally posted by AlabamAlum View PostI feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it onComment

With college, though, with respect to football quality and deservedness, winning the Big Ten or SEC means MUCH more than winning the Sun Belt or CUSA.
Conference championships should never be used as a sole criterion for playoff admission in football unless they’re about 70 spots to fill."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

This is true. I still believe that when it comes to power five teams getting in, a criteria for inclusion should be winning the conference. A team should not be rewarded for not having to play a CCG even if they are perceived to be a better team. There should never be two teams from the same conference in a 4 team playoff.Originally posted by AlabamAlum View Post
Of course, this will be moot when the playoff expands.I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it onComment

Yeah. With having 12 spots, we will have multiple non conference champs in it."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

And, I know we have had this convo before, but in a 4-team, I want the best 4 teams. Especially if the teams’ only loss is a close or controversial loss to the other."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

I like the concept of winning a conference game gets you in to the playoffs. It sounds like the top 6 conferences would get that in the 12 team setup. That would be good, as it is now the conference championship games can hurt you, help you or have no effect at all.Comment

In an 12 team playoff, conference champs should absolutely get auto-bids.
In a 4 teamer you have to just take the best teams. The SEC has gotten two teams into the playoff on two occasions and they both played in the finals each time. That means they went a combined 6-2 in those two playoffs alone, thus demonstrating that not only was the SEC runner up one of the top four teams, they were one of the top 2.Comment

In a 12-team, not all conference champs should get in. Just the P5.Originally posted by Mike View Post"The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

The format will make it so only conference champs get byes. Top 4 would have been UGA, M, KSU and Utah. Then TCU, OSU, UAT…
So OSU-KSU, Utah-KSU, UAT-M, Georgia-who cares (if seeding held — OSU would have played Penn State).Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Arizona would not have gotten in, Talent."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment
