BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - You're missing the point.
The latest football scheduling news isn't about Alabama not wanting to play a home-and-home series against Wisconsin.
It's not about Wisconsin not wanting to play a neutral-site game against Alabama, perhaps in a fertile recruiting area like Chicago.
It's not about two teams trying to do what's in their own best interest, which is what scheduling's all about. In this case, no news really is good news.
Look to the future, and think big picture.
Wisconsin vs. Alabama may not happen, but the fact that Wisconsin wanted it to happen and allowed ESPN to try to make it happen underscores the point that playoff proponents have been making for years. A four-team playoff won't devalue the best regular season in sports.
