I think 12 or 16 is plenty of teams in the CFB playoff but after pseudo careful consideration I guarantee the powers that be will follow the $$$$$$$$$$$$ while at the same time claiming the “student athletes” are their main concern.

They'll expand to 24 and naturally a large amount of morons in the country will use that number to somehow justify the entire SEC being in the playoff.

this makes me feel like I would be worried as an ole Miss fan.

For sure.  Betting markets have shifted pretty hard to LSU since yesterday afternoon, but it’s still not a lock.

Quite the saga!

This makes me continue to really appreciate IU and Cig resolving our coach speculation situation in a matter of days with a revised contract and clear video message to the fans and broader CFB world (recruits).  A chef’s kiss of institutional alignment here at IU!

I wonder if we will see conferences drop a championship game in the future to avoid damaging their seeding or inclusion in the CFP? Maybe just go back to way it use to be, best conference records complete with tie breakers.

Maybe.  Theoretically if the committee looked at resume instead of idk vibes it could be a way for a team to play themselves into the CFP.

It will depend on which decision makes the most money.
