      You’re correct. 100 guys suited up, more guys on the practice squad. You would think more talent would be available. It’s not.
      Big issue is playing time. Only 13-14 games a year. It’s a sport where few people get to develop their skills in an actual game. 75% of the team is on the bench most of their career. Not getting game experience. Most guys, even good ones, spend thier life to play about 30-40 hours of collage football. Then it’s over.

      Why did the ACC vote against a 12 team playoff this year? If they had voted for the 12 team to start this year they would be playing some scrub team first round of playoffs. This is what the ACC wanted.

Plus you've got a room full of strangers deciding the fate of an undefeated power 5 team, ultimately saying they aren't good enough as a team to complete for the national championship. Their backup QB would be ready by Jan 1, who's to say he can't lead them to victory? Let the action on the field decide their fate, they earned it by going 13-0.

    Not saying FSU doesn’t have argument cause they obviously do but I don’t like Klatt talking around the point today. He himself said last week that Oregon, Texas, and Alabama should all get in over FSU if they won. He said that FSU had no case whatsoever to being one of the top 4 teams given the Travis injury bc it’s that significant. Now he doesn’t want to talk about whether it was right decision or not even tho HE SAID THIS WAS THE WAY HE WOULD DO IT. Seems like he’s trying to avoid backlash

You're telling all of those players on a 13-0 FSU team that they aren't good enough to compete without even given them a chance, especially since their backup QB would be ready for Jan 1. I'm not even a FSU fan but they should have been #3. The controversy should have revolved over which 1 loss team got the #4 spot (example: is it the team who beat Bama on their home turf by double digits or is it the team who beat UGA on neutral field by 3 pnts).

      I have heard this argument before and I think it is one of the best arguments to be made. I also like Mike Greenberg's argument that college football has suddenly become figure skating. He argues that when the playoff teams are determined in the NFL, teams don't get dropped from the playoffs if their best player gets hurt. It's won-loss record. Period.

    Here's the best way to maximize the best teams both during the season and at the end of the season having the chance to compete for the National Championship: ALLOW the ENTIRE TOP 20 to participate in the following manner:
    1. Eliminate "automatic bids" for certain conference champions;
    2. Eliminate 13th game "Conference Championship Games," begin the regular season the last Saturday in August, and end the regular season the weekend BEFORE Thanksgiving.
    3. Take the BOTTOM 8 teams of the Top 20 (i.e. teams ranked # 13 through # 20) and have them play a "play-in round on Thanksgiving weekend (teams #1 through # 12 receive a BYE). The play-in winners of the 4 Thanksgiving weekend games get added to teams #1 - #12 to complete the 16-team National Championship playoff bracket
    4. The first Saturday of December (the weekend that had previously been used for "Conference Championship Games") is when the Round of 16 plays -- 8 games. The 8 winners advance to New Year's Day games. Losing teams are eligible for lesser bowls during the Holiday Season -- OR all those other bowls are simply cancelled because players enter the transfer portal and/or decline to play/risk injury for meaningless games. All teams have no games after the first Sat in December until after 1st semester final exams.
    5. The 8 advancing teams play at 11 a.m., 2 p.m., 5 p.m., and 8 p.m. EST on New Years Day.
    6. The 4 winning teams from New Years play in the two semi-final games on 8 January
    7. The two semi-final winners play the National Championship game on 15 January.

It is about the 4 best teams AT THE PRESENT DAY based on ALL of the collective and cumulative data, some of which some people conveniently boast and some that others conveniently disregard or downplay in order to reach their preferred outcome. I just want people to see beyond their emotions, accusations and conspiracies to consider all criteria as equal, but that is not possible without knowing all of the criteria and being reasonable enough to consider all of the criteria, not just the criteria that gets you to your desired outcome.
