I’m becoming more intrigued by the idea of an 8 or 16-team playoff. Here’s an interesting little piece about what a 16-team playoff could look like if it were in place for 2020. https://syndication.bleacherreport....d-look-like-for-the-2020-season.amp.html

Leave it at 4. Like wew said above, nearly all the semifinal games are blowouts...or at least less than competitive.

I'm fine with 8 teams but the division 2 games need to be removed from the schedule

I'll say 4 is plenty too.

I think there should be a representative from each Power 5 conference then 1 at large bids which should usually be an SEC team. That gives all the other conferences outside of the major 4 something to play for and broadens the viewing audience, thus creating more money for those involved.

If they're not worthy of a top 4, they're not worthy at all. The PAC12 this past year was schitt....as was the Big12. The ACC was a one team conference. Best 4 teams, period...regardless of conference affiliation.

The average margin of victory in the CFP semifinals has been 22 points; how bad will some of those games be?? Bad. Real bad.

#2 verse #3 on #2's home field for the right to play #1 on their home field. Makes the regular season even more valid. Never happen but I can dream. Screw #4..they can play China in an exhibition for all I care.

I used to think it needed to be at least 8, but I was wrong. 4 is plenty.
All the extra games would be hard on players and fans trying to afford to travel to the games.
GO5 schools need their own playoffs. There is a lot of good football in those conferences, but they will never compete with P5 schools.

Who is qualified to decide who the best 4 teams are? 8 teams minimum!!! If you have a playoff, then play it off as well as possible. Don't do it based on the beauty pageant ideas of the past. 4 teams that you can name right now, huh? Why play the season?
