So I'm listening to Mike and Mike interview Brian Kelly.   Naturally, they ask about the playoffs.   Kelly says he'd like to see 8 teams and, in order to not make the season too long for the players, he'd be willing to give up conference championship games.    Well, duh, you don't have a conference championship game as Notre Dame.  So, basically, Kelly is willing to give up nothing in order to expand the playoffs. 

Dumbass.

It should be 8 teams, but they probably would have to cut a game out.  The answer is not a conference championship game but instead a non-conference game i.e. go back to an 11 game schedule.  First week of playoffs like Dec. 20, then semis on January 1, championship on January 8.  They could do the first week at neutral sites, but closer to the campus of the top 4 seeds (that would require adding some more northern venues to the mix like Detroit, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, St. Louis).  So if you just took the 8 right now

1. Miss St. v. 8. Ohio St. in New Orleans
2. Oregon v. 7. Baylor in Seattle/San Fran
3. FSU v. 6. ASU in Orlando/Atlanta/Tampa
4. TCU v. 5. Bama in Dallas

Something like that might work.  Then the Semis in Phoenix and Miami and the finals in LA (or whatever).

The playoffs would have to pay each conference more than the CC games and each school would have to get a large enough piece of the pie to lose that home date.

I'm pretty sure it would work out that way.  Lots of money to be made.

Alabama over Miss St gives the SEC a better chance of getting 2 in, if they both win out from here....

Bama was soooooo much better than Miss St.

TCU and FSU avoid major upsets after losing much of the game. 

Oregon St. knocks ASU out. 

Georgia ensures Auburn is out (even if they beat Bama). 


and Arkansas gets its first SEC win in years against LSU

Miss St might stay in top 4 with TCU getting bumped. 
11/16/2014 10:01 AM
than would be sad if miss st stayed ahead of tcu. miss st love is based of them beating auburn a&m and lsu. all of them are good wins but in no way should that resume get a second sec team in.

Yeah but put Miss. St against TCU, Baylor, and Ohio St.  Who has the better resume among those 4?

I mean TCU's best win is Kansas St.  The same Kansas St. that lost to Auburn.  Baylor beat TCU but lost to West Virginia.  Ohio State of course lost to Va Tech and only has 1 victory over a ranked team (Mich St) assuming of course Minnesota drops from the rankings.

We'd also be assuming a win over Ole Miss.

Truth is, it would solve the Baylor/TCU controversy if both win out.
