If that happens, will have ALL SEC finals most years.

They'll put 4 SEC teams in there most years, and 2 will make the finals. This will regionalize football very fast. The Alabama-Georgia final a few years ago had lower ratings. I know ESPN wants these extra games, but they need to think about that.

It's also going to destroy the bowl games. SEC won't have enough teams to play in them. Rose Bowl would be non-event, or have to be involved in the quarter finals. If they do that the tie in conferences make less.

The P5 will need to absorb the best of the G5 to at least make them work to get there.

The Presidents will have to have made an about face in 7 years to now agree to this many extra games. They insisted before to not play any games in 2nd Semester.

Your opinion…we will see. Or I hope we don’t see. ** -- Stech 06/11/2021 7:31PM

Meaningful expansion should cease if this goes through. -- goldendomer 06/11/2021 5:09PM

14 is a horrendous number for a conference…not sure it’s over, but ND -- Stech 06/11/2021 7:35PM

Yep . ... -- MrFantastic! 06/12/2021 03:45AM

12 is even worse than 14. -- Maroon Baboon 06/12/2021 04:49AM

16 or even 20 with 4 Quads is the way to go if you are going with -- Stech 06/12/2021 08:26AM

I would have preferred 8 (six champs, 2 at-large, no byes) -- Maroon Baboon 06/11/2021 6:02PM

I think this.... -- MrFantastic! 06/12/2021 03:43AM

I know this. ... in 99 -- MrFantastic! 06/12/2021 06:51AM

Any longview thoughts from anyone? -- Colonel Jessup 06/10/2021 9:46PM

Yeah, Swarbrick is happy. He stated since the Conference champs -- goldendomer 06/10/2021 7:50PM

I didn’t look at it from that angle -- Millpoint 06/10/2021 8:10PM

ND is pretty happy about this -- TerryD 06/10/2021 11:22PM

I would think this would strengthen ND's independence status quite a lot. ** -- wwhokie1 06/11/2021 7:13PM

There are six at large bids there for ND yearly -- TerryD 06/10/2021 11:26PM

Anyone else think that will turn into 3 at large bids? -- Truthahn 06/11/2021 1:09PM

Wasn't it the college presidents over these years saying -- Maroon Baboon 06/11/2021 3:24PM

If this proposal passes as is, it should end the talk -- goldendomer 06/10/2021 11:42PM

I don't like the 4 byes. It should be to all 5 P5 champs, or no byes at all -- Maroon Baboon 06/10/2021 9:22PM

Byes for college football playoffs sound like a really bad idea. -- wwhokie1 06/11/2021 7:16PM

Several reason why the byes suck. -- Maroon Baboon 06/11/2021 7:24PM

If that happens, will have ALL SEC finals most years.
