      Stupid idea if true.
      Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!

      I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.

          Yes, the NCAF is about ratings and no one aside from FSU fans wants to see a back up QB. Georgia is who has a 29 game winning steak narrowly losing to good Alabama team with it key receivers gimpy , got screwed. There should be a 6 or 8 team format. But for now it is four. The college playoffs is exciting and rather tribal.
          Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

          Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

          *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

            I like it. If you are beat up early and lose a couple, should still have a shot to run the table when healthy.

            First round will be home/away by seed, should be all rounds, IMO, except the championship. The NFL playoffs is the greatest in all sports, college football is being smart to emulate it.

              nah, this is the best idea ever. Let the play on the field decide the winner instead of a bunch of empty suits handpicking teams.

              Should be 16 teams.

              Pretty sure every sport BUT Division 1 football has a playoff format. Why is that?

              every other college sport has playoffs. Its way past time

                They're beholden to the bowls -- they've tried to shoehorn the playoffs into the bowl system and this is what we got.

                  Division II, Division III football has playoffs.

                  HS has playoffs.

                  NCAA needs to drop these dumb traditions. They also need to get rid of 20 minute halves in basketball and get with the times. Everyone else plays 4 quarters.

                    these bowls are trash anyway. Too many of them and most are empty.

                    all these teams and players hopping from team to team and conference to conference.

                    just use the bowls for playoff games or better yet, start the year off with bowl games and better matchups to start the season.

                      Thats my point, it needs to be either 8 or 16. Not sure how 12 is going to work? Is the NCAA going to now have wildcard weekends?

                        Top 4 get a bye, 8 teams play home/away I assume on what is now "championship Saturday". At least I hope they're doing away with the conference championship games.

                        If not, the Big 10 needs to lose the divisions.

                          Big10 is scrapping the divisions now that they have added Pac 12 teams.

                            Still would rather see 16 and just have a playoff system. It's really not that hard to figure out.

                              Gotcha.. yeah, I agree, this is to make sure the networks can still pick 4 teams for the bye to try and curate the best outcome.

                              still much better than 4 teams.

                                yep, but the suits and networks would totally be at the mercy of game and they can’t have that.. lol.
