🏈 CFP mulls moving semis from New Year's Eve

HOOVER, Ala. -- Bill Hancock said the College Football Playoff is considering moving the playoff semifinals from New Year's Eve.

Hancock, the CFP's executive director, said the move could happen no sooner than after the 2018 regular season.

"We're exploring if there's a better [date] for the semifinals," Hancock said. "We're thinking about if New Year's Eve is the way to go."

The fact that Hancock publicly addressed the possibility of moving the games off New Year's Eve indicates it is "likely to happen," a source said.

I could have swore I caught a headline in the last few weeks that suggested otherwise...like they were sticking to their guns on this.

Play them on the last Saturday of the year. At 1ET and 4ET if it's NYE. Rose and Sugar Bowls if it's NYD. So what if the rotation is changed? It can be evened out.

Hell, just take the Rose and Sugar Bowls out of the rotation. Give them the games just when it's on NYD. I suspect that would get their attention and change their attitude.

Best line yet. From an Arkansas fan on an SEC board:

"I suppose only bama fans should really give a crap....."

That would be a trick unless the end of the world were nigh.

It would also put the game on Christmas Day every so often.

Personally, I like it on NYE. For the fans of the teams playing it's great. Instant combo football party and NYE party.

Yeah, I meant to say if the last Saturday was 12/25, then play them on Saturday 01/01.
