Instead of letting a poll, which could be subjective, determine

which 4 teams get to participate in the Playoffs, I would rather leave it up to "chance" and draw the 4 teams out of a bowl. Similar to what soccer does to determine the groups for the World Cup, Champions League, or Europa League.

Watching the CFP. I think staying at 4 teams is the way to go. BUT... -- Maroon Baboon 12/28/2019 6:24PM

I wish they would stay at four. Unfortunately, money will rule the day -- goldendomer 12/30/2019 11:24AM

Not sure how they get to 8 without impacting conf champ games -- Vienna_Hokie 01/01/2020 6:50PM

Just go to Conference Champions only... and you have your 8 😁. ** -- Stech 12/30/2019 7:26PM

We have five P5 conferences, so you propose picking the top 4 champs? -- EDGEMAN 12/31/2019 07:14AM

There have only been 3 close Semifinals in the 6 years -- HOO86 12/29/2019 12:25PM

Well let's cap the NCAA tournament at 8 teams -- Vippie1 12/29/2019 12:18PM

One minor correction to your post -- VTHokie2000 12/29/2019 3:37PM

Thank you folks don’t understand that -- Mercury 12/31/2019 12:41PM

The NCAA is responsible for certifying the bowl games -- VTHokie2000 12/31/2019 9:27PM

Comparing football and basketball is a bit of a fool's errand. -- Maroon Baboon 12/30/2019 10:36AM

All true -- Vippie1 12/29/2019 3:30PM

If that happens, I'd be fine with it. -- Maroon Baboon 12/29/2019 5:56PM

Depends on your angle. Seems many folks who want expansion -- Colonel Jessup 12/29/2019 11:33AM

Yes. The playoff, even the BCS, diminished bowls. Only 4 bowls matter... -- Maroon Baboon 12/30/2019 03:09AM

Absolutely! -- Colonel Jessup 12/30/2019 02:39AM

Thanks. If you mean Northern Virginia? No. -- Maroon Baboon 12/30/2019 03:12AM

For me, there is only 1 bowl game that matters -- VTHokie2000 12/29/2019 3:22PM

I empathize with your position. -- Maroon Baboon 12/29/2019 6:06PM

If the media showed "love" towards more teams (including the G5s) -- VTHokie2000 12/30/2019 2:29PM

After watching these 4 teams 4 is the right number -- Mercury 12/29/2019 07:35AM

No #1 or #3 team has ever won the tournament (per ESPN last night) -- Maroon Baboon 12/29/2019 2:10PM

How about a "play in" game, like the NCAA BB Tournament? ** -- EDGEMAN 12/29/2019 05:44AM

I think the tournament should be a round bracket number 2, 4, 8 or 16. -- Maroon Baboon 12/29/2019 1:42PM

Reasonable. Today's first game kinda puts a damper on more than 4. ** -- IB4TECH 12/28/2019 8:06PM

...again. There have never been more than 3 teams with a legit shot... -- EDGEMAN 12/29/2019 05:45AM
