This isn't directed to you personally because I've been complaining about this for about 20 years, but that's some BS. It doesn't matter if the conference is small. They are all Division I football programs. They should all have the right to compete for a championship. We should not have people sitting around a table deciding who gets to play. Just like Division I basketball. Every school has a shot. Win your conference championship and you are automatically in. That's the way it should be.
There would not be too many games. They can use the existing bowl format and just shorten the regular season by a game or two. It works in every other division and every other sport.
The new system does not give every team a chance. It gives the usual suspects a chance. This should all be settled on the field.

I kind of agree but they want to avoid too many playoff games that are blowouts and that's why they are putting the top rated small conference school in the playoffs. Every team still has a chance but they have to be the best. Seeing Alabama play Miami (Ohio) in a playoff game would bring in horrible ratings and college football is all about $$$$$.
I am more concerned with the new NIL stuff. There needs to be some kind of regulation on this or it's going to turn into a shitshow reel fast.

The NIL stuff is crazy, but I have mixed feelings. They system didn't treat the athletes right for years. The NCAA governance sucks. This sort of levels the playing field a bit. But I definitely see how things can get out of control.

One of the coaches said it's a million to a million and a half for a QB.

I think they will end up with a NIL salary cap for each team. If they don't the big schools will dominate even more than they do now.
