The NCAA has finally figured out they need a playoff. Sadly, they are only going with a 4 game playoff.
Any thoughts?

There will eventually be at least an 8 game playoff system. The walls have been breached and nothing less will satisfy the quest for a true national champion.
The best idea would be a 16 team playoff, but that may be too much considering the rigors of the game.
One of the things that I predict will come out of all of this is the lack of limitations on the number of teams from a single league or conference. If you want to determine who is the top team, you let all the top teams fight it out on the field.

I'll believe even a 4 game playoff when I see one.
The NCAA should go back to freshman teams (ineligable for the varsity) - no leaving for the pros before you finish your senior season of eligabilty - the way it used to be.
College sports today is a joke - a farm system for the pros
I am old School.
Always liked freshman teams.
The Big Dance in basketball shouldbe halved from 64 teams to 32. (too many teams that have no chance o fwinning with 64 teams.)
And a football playoff should be 8 teams -not 16 like I posted before (same reason)
That was an uninformed and stupid thing to write.College sports today is a joke - a farm system for the pros
The average salary for college graduates is $46,000. The minimum salary for a rookie in the NFL is $310,000. And the average NFL career is 3.5 years.
In 3.5 years a player will earn $1,085,000.00 at the minimum salary. It would take a bit over 23 years to earn that amount at $46k per year.
The average salary for nfl players is $1.9 million, and the median salary is $770,000. If you use the lower number, the players earn $2.695 million in 3.5 years. It would take 29 years at twice the average salary for college graduates to equal it.
I don't know about you, but if my kids had the opportunity I would encourage them to be "farmed".
