Official 2023 College Football Thread: Michigan Recognized as National Champions of Cheating !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like playoff expansion to 14 or 16 is going to happen in 2026.
Ridiculous. 7 at large will already be 3 or 4 SEC, 2 or 3 Big Ten, and ND or one ACC or Big 12. Adding two or four more teams will just add more SEC and Big Ten teams. And conference champions should get a bye as a major advantage for winning their conference. A 16 team playoff shouldn't bother with a conference championship game.
 
College football is going to become really fucking boring
It’s an Atlanta strip club. A bunch of mouth breathers getting all excited and gawking while throwing their money at talent that peaked in high school on display with production values that are probably a little much for their scar tissue.
 
these extra playoff games are basically going to feel like NFL preseason games. Starters resting, nobody wanting to get injured and tank their draft stock. They'll already be tired and beat up from a full regular season. It's going to be awful.

I rarely agree with BBD, but in this instance, I have to, this is starting to become too much. We haven't even seen a 12 team playoff yet and they are already talking about 14 or 16 teams. The regular season is going to become a battle of attrition and who can keep the most players healthy. I have to wonder if players are ever consulted about these decisions.
 
I guess keeping FSU out of the playoffs officially ended the whole “the season is a playoff” idea.
 
How did UGA miss out on those guys.

If you read the stories, you'd know that the UNC-CH football players were ticketed for underage drinking by ALE and that a female is the one who was driving 124 mph, killing a fellow student in a wreck.

Another way to say that they just didn’t have sec speed.

the report said that the car driven by one of the football players was driving 15 yards behind the car that was going 124 mph
 
You ever been to CoMo or you just assuming ?
I've spent time in both. Anyone who would prefer Columbia MO over Tucson needs to have their head examined. And any college student who would rather go to school in Columbia over Tucson needs a full frontal lobotomy.
 
It’s interesting that the Big Ten and SEC seem worried they won’t get 3+ teams in a 12 team playoff. That set up seems worse for them. Takes away likely at-large spots and potentially their bye.

Agreed. This actually seems like something the ACC and Big 12 should actually be excited about.
This may be the end of conference championship games though.
 
It's a brilliant set-up for the Big Ten and SEC because it both makes their own Conference Championships more valuable (win the Conference, get a bye in the playoff) while neutering the Conference Championship for the Big XII and ACC (both teams get in anyway). This allows the Big Ten and SEC to not only further their financial dominance by getting more teams in the playoff, but also lessens the value of their rival conferences television packages since the conference championship is likely the most valuable game to the networks.
 
Why would the SEC want to help the Big 10? If recent history is a guide, the SEC would slways get 3 bids in a 14 team playoff if there were no auto bids. The Big 10 would not. Really do not understand why the SEC feels like they need this. At some point, giving the Big 10 three auto-bids will likely keep an SEC team out. If the SEC thinks they are the dominant force in college football they wouldn't seek any auto-bids. Such a pussy move.
