Our conference leaders are spineless cowards for agreeing to this, competing for a single bid while dogshit P4 teams can get in on name alone we’ve hit a new low as a sport and a country

ESPN is single-handedly destroying
everything that made college sports unique. Regional conferences, regional rivalries, every game mattering, it’s all gone. And it’s gone because of ESPN’s greed and need to control everything.

Again, the only real way a 24-team playoff works:
ALL FBS conference champs get AQ. You still have 14 at-large bids. The regular season will still matter!
Yes, I’d rather have the MAC conference championship over a 8-4 SEC/B1G team everyday and twice on Sunday

🗑️ Only 1 guaranteed spot for G6 teams in an expanded 24 team field is absolute garbage. You could have guaranteed each G6 conference champions a spot and still had 18 spots for P4 teams. What a joke.

Absolute spineless silence from people who are supposed to protect these institutions and in most cases, the tax payers who own them.
Not one antitrust lawsuit. Pathetic.
Disney needed a massive change order to their TV deals before another pathetic earnings report sunk them on the 17th. Instead of letting them drown, you all just offered them your heads to stand on.
The people at fault here are the docile herd of elected representatives, university presidents, conference commissioners and athletic directors. Academics and bureaucrats don't have the best reputation, but Christ, you'd think there's be at least one who would have to balls to call up their lawyers and start swinging.
Breaking: The College Football Playoff and ESPN have signed a five-year, nearly $1.7 billion deal that will expand the field to 24 teams in 2027 with ESPN as its continued broadcast partner, sources told @CFBHeather.

It remains to be one of the most ridiculous things in sports that the company which has a broadcast deal with a conference also gets to create its own playoff format and pick and choose the teams it wants in that format.

ESPN should have nothing to do with the CFP. Saying that the CFP & ESPN have agreed on something is tantamount to saying the SEC has agreed to a 5yr contract with the CFP.
College football knew this was coming, but it shouldn’t be subjected to the Rule of ESPN or any network.

10 conference champions.
14 at-large bids.
If people are so worried about the regular season losing value, this is the only correct format for a 24-team playoff.

The two aren't an apples to apples comparison... But the last local legend who wore 17 and was hired as head coach of his former team worked out.

NEW: Illinois' Bret Bielema after beating Nebraska:
"But to be in this job, where we’re at right now, 6-3, we beat another 5-3 team. If we were in the SEC, we’d probably be a top-15 team."
