What is your post season proposal?

[foster4prez]

A lot of consternation over the blowouts this weekend leading to discussion about the right way to handle the CFB playoff/post season.

How would you propose we handle it?

I'll give two.

Realistic based on current situation:

8 team playoff
5 highest ranked conference champs
3 at large teams
Seeded based purely on rankings
First round at higher seeded home fields
Semi-finals rotate through traditional major bowls
Championship location bid out yearly like the Super Bowl

Ideally if I could change everything:

Re-align 64 FBS teams into four 16-team conferences with four 4-team pods each.
Team play a balanced schedule of their own pod + 2 teams for each of the other 3 pods + 3 OOC games yearly.
Each pod winner plays mini 4-team playoff for conference title at higher seeded home field
Each conference winner plays 4-team playoff for national title.
Semi-finals rotate through traditional major bowls
Championship location bid out yearly like the Super Bowl
Exhibition bowls are moved to end of spring practice
PLUS CONFERENCE RELEGATION AND PROMOTION

For the 2024 season...8-team playoff and no CCG unless necessary (e.g. Arizona St vs Iowa St).
(1)Oregon (12-0)* vs (8)Arizona St (11-2)*
(4)Notre Dame (11-1) vs (5)Georgia (10-2)

(2)Texas (11-1)* vs (7)Boise St (11-1)*
(3)Penn St (11-1) vs (6)SMU (11-1)*
*conference winner

Going forward, a 72-team league with 2 conferences (Eastern, Western), 4 divisions of 9 in each conference, no more CCGs. Play a round robin schedule in division (8 games) and 4 non-division games. 6-7-8 playoff teams in each conference (12-14-16 altogether). Not sure how many would be ideal. The divisions would make a helluva lot more sense than the bullshit that's happening now...e.g. Oregon, UCLA, USC, Washington in the Big Ten.
