You think you bought access for the lesser thans. All you did was provide insurance to the big boys. Congrats, 24 Team playoff people.

"How do you do, fellow kids?"

1. The regular season still matters 2. OSU will end up being #1 by default even though they got lucky 3. Indiana should get the same treatment as Bama last week and shouldn't drop any spots, right? Or is that just the SEC that gets that privilege?

"There's not 24 teams in the country that deserve to be in the playoffs ... I don't think there's 24 teams in the country that can win the championship." Nick Saban reiterated his concerns about a potential expansion to a 24-team College Football Playoff in 2027.

It's December 2005. USC is undefeated. 12-0. Carroll. Leinart. Bush. Ranked #1. Texas is undefeated. 12-0. Mack. Vince. Ranked #2. No other team in the nation is undefeated. Choose your own adventure... a) USC v Texas in the Rose Bowl! b) USC, Texas play 4-loss teams in a 24-team playoff bracket

This. It's all about moving the goalposts for what the definition of a "good" season is, and saying you made the playoffs is good. This used to be finishing with 8 wins and going to a good bowl. Now an 8 win SEC team will get smoked in round 1. PROGRESS!!

The thing about 24 that bothers me most is… Who is this for? It’s not because TV was begging for it. ESPN had to be convinced. It’s not for a boatload of new cash. Losing conf champ games is gonna make this a minimal gain. It’s not because the 22nd team has any shot at a natty. It doesn’t. It’s certainly not done with the health, safety, or academic success of the players in mind since they don’t even get a say in this. It’s entirely to appease the people donating the money that keeps a financially irresponsible business model afloat. It’s discounting success so schools can say “look what your donation bought.” It’s an industry hellbent on treating investors and bosses as the customer, and customers as an infinite resource that will keep coming back no matter what.
