College football play-off expansion dead?

Post by koimaster » September 6th 2021, 10:10am

Less than a month before College Football Playoff executives gather to consider next steps in the evolution of the current four-team field, approval of a proposed 12-team expansion has never been more in doubt, multiple sources tell CBS Sports.

Prominent individuals within integral CFP committees have concerns about the process as well as whether the proposed structure is the right move for their conferences and teams.

What appeared to be a simple approval process just months ago is now an effort muddled in jealousy and doubt that lacks mutual trust between key parties.

Uncertainty was ratcheted up in late July when news broke prematurely that Texas and Oklahoma were talking about leaving the Big 12 for the SEC. The sudden migration of those two powerhouses has cast playoff expansion in a different light.

Perhaps there should be NO playoffs, and present all players/teams with a participation trophy .

That would solve this dilemma
Ha ha ha ha ha ha. So postmodern America!

Instead of the same four teams in the playoff, there would be the same twelve teams in a playoff.

And the same four teams vying for the national title.

And the Tide rolls on! $k@@

It must suck to live in a state where they don't have college football.


I don't really care what they do; there will be football and I will watch it until it goes political like all the pro sports. Then I will watch the cornhole championships where they actually put down their beer before they toss the bean bag. That's how you know they are professional. :-)
