Jumper_Dad Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I just read a few days ago that the Rose Bowl was the hold up. I thought the CFP should have already told the Rose to pound sand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I don't know if it's the equivalent to telling them to pound sand, but I believe they drew a line in the sand and said if you don't make a decision by this date/time...you're out. It's amazing what deadlines can do when people know there are serious consequences to missing them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theguru Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 If it was active this year here are the current teams that would be in: (1) Georgia; (2) Michigan; (3) TCU; (4) USC; (5) Ohio State; (6) Alabama; (7) Tennessee; (8) Penn State; (9) Clemson; (10) Kansas State; (11) Utah; (12) Washington.

So, if top 4 get byes, we'd end up with... Ohio State vs. Washington Alabama vs. Utah Tennessee vs. Kansas State Penn State vs. Clemson I'd gladly take that. Granted, it would be better if Hooker wasn't out, but still. On a side note, I've not heard how they're going to do the second round. Would it be a predetermined bracket, based upon the higher seed from the first round? So, OSU/Washington would play USC regardless. Or would they do the complicated thing the NFL does, where it's based upon who the highest seed is that's remaining after the first round. So, if Washington happened to beat OSU in the first round, they'd play Georgia instead? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always been for 16 teams but 12 works. And think back to all those "powers that be" that told us for decades two teams (or more recently four teams) was enough and we don't need more teams blah blah blah... All I see is the corrupt people in power are finally having to move away from their monopoly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will not be, nor should there be reseeding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite simply, for me, the more teams you have in it, the more it's decided on the field. Which is how it should be. Scrap the polls and computer models and everything else that's used to "predict" who the better team(s) is/are, and let's play some ball. Will there be some blowouts? Sure. Will we have brackets go by chalk some years? Maybe so. But will we also have a #5 team make it to the finals and maybe win it all? I think that's possible as well...which could not happen now under the current set up. The same way a #4 seed could never win it when they only took the top 2. This is a step forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
