my guess would be Bama/TCU and Oregon or Texas /Cincinnati

16 teams is too much. 8 teams at most IMO. An 8-4 team shouldn't have a shot at the national title at the end of the year.

+1 ....

Look at it like the NCAA tournament. The small confernce champions have little chance of knocking off the #1 seeds, but they want their shot.

The only thing that gives me pause about this is letting the NCAA get their hands on all that playoff money and control distribution of it. That's why I'd like to fold a playoff into the bowl system.

Because football can be a game of attrition, the final game may be more of freshman and lucky surviors than the best of the best.

Along those lines, I've already heard FL fans says they would have won with Dunlap playing...I don't if they would have been that much better but the game could have been different.

What about a "plus one" game, ie. Bama vs Texas winner plays the winner of the TCU vs Boise game.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

An eight game playoff adds three more games to the season, which is a bunch. At most, I would think a four game playoff would be the max that could be managed, which is essentially would a plus-one following the BCS bowl games. If they went out to an eight team bracket, I would have the SEC demand (perhaps the Big 12 could as well) a bye because of the conference championship games. Then you could have six teams and the SEC would still add just one extra game.

All that being said, just leave it alone. It's rare to have this many undefeated teams. Heck, LSU won the NC with two losses...

I think a plus one is the only thing needed, a playoff system would be just too many games. Takes care of itself honestly.

 

[ElephantStomp]

I'm for a plus one and that would be it. Pretty soon with a bigger playoff and teams and ESPn would have something else to gripe about... so and so was snubbed for so and so. Can't make everybody happy.

As for had Dunlap been playing they would've beat us, Florida could've had 16 players on each side and they wouldn't have beat us. We didn't just beat them up front we beat them at every phase of the game. If they couldn't beat us with Superman what makes them think they could've with Dunlap?
