      It’s not about “just the first round.” These games are still supposed to be meaningful, and when teams get demolished, it exposes that the playoff structure is allowing weaker teams to slip through. A real playoff system should produce competitive games in every round, including the first.

      @@noredoosno2929 There is literally no way to predict (and by extension, prevent) blowouts. Games that are hosting two teams of similar talent and coaching (FSU vs. Clemson in 2013, Clemson vs. Alabama in 2018) still sometimes result in blowouts. You cannot make a system that eliminates that possibility.

There will be schools every year that argue it should be them but now it's like a 1/12 chance of making the playoffs instead 1/33. It's better for everyone.

    I think seeding is more the issue. Conference champions should get an auto-bid but i dont agree with the bye.
    In the basketball tournament the #1 seeds are still the top ranked teams and upsets are ranked lower.
    If seeding was..
    1. Oregon
    2. UGA
    3. Texas
    4. Notre Dame
    Then youd get these games
    5. Ohio State vs 12. Clemson

    No. It will take time for programs to get recruiting bumps for appearing in the playoffs. Blowouts really don't matter as long as high school kids believe they can realistically make it to the playoffs in your program. Teams like Indiana and SMU can be much more competitive in a few years simply because of the clout making the playoffs will have for high-school kids and experienced transfers.

    The playoffs aren’t even over yet, it’s too early to say if it’s a disaster yet. We have only played like 1/3 of the games in the playoff. The lower seeds went ON THE ROAD and lost to the home teams that were favored.

    I don't understand this talking point about teams "not deserving" to be there because they don't have a chance to go all the way and they get handled easily. This is the case in LITERALLY every other sport. When is the last time an 8 seed did anything in the nba playoffs? A wildcard team winning the Superbowl? Relax, you hyperbolic whiners. This format eliminates the teams stating that if they would have gotten in then they would have won. If a few games aren't competitive, so be it. It comes with the territory

    The 12-team format provides an opportunity for more upsets. Maybe a team with a less impressive resume upsets a more reputable one, which makes the competition more interesting. The excitement of college football lies in the chance for the "other guys" to dismantle top-tier teams. I don't know about you, but I don’t want to watch the same 3 or 4 teams consistently win the championship. That’s not exciting at all.

    It's not all the bracket's fault why we're seeing the Oregon-Ohio St match-up so early.
    The biggest reason why we're seeing the "Championship game" this early is because Ohio St lost to Michigan as a 19.5-point favorite.
    If OSU had won that game, and made it to the BIG10 Championship, no matter who would've won in the BIG10 championship game, the loser would fall no further then #7 (after byes are accounted for) and the winner would be ranked #1, which the bracket would've guaranteed that this match-up would've happened in the semi-finals or the Championship game.
    We have to put more responsibility on OSU.

    Yes it's terrible. What are the these terrible takes from u guys in the comments section. U guys do understand what automatic bid means and why they went to the 12 team playoff? So smaller schools get a chance. It also means that teams from conference usa, sun belt, american, mw, and the new pac 12 will get an automatic bye if they win out. They will only consider changing it when the 14 team playoff gets here. I don't understand these brain dead comments. The most deserving teams will always get in over the better team in this format. They signed a contract for this until 2026 maybe they tweak it when the 14 team playoff gets here. Until then enjoy more blowouts and meaningless football 😂😂.

    No. Playoffs of ALL TYPES tend to have blowouts in the first round. Aka, this is NORMAL!!! But just like March Madness or the NFL playoffs we WILL eventually get Cinderella Stories that simply wouldn't have been possible with the 4-team system. 🤷
    It could definitely use a few tweaks though. While I agree with giving the top 4 conference chanpions a first round bye because it's basically the only way to keep conference championship games important, there simply NEEDS to be re-seeding done for the second round (not based on actual playoff seeding, but instead their final CFP ranking). I.e. the top ranked conference champion should face the lowest ranked team to win in the first round, and so on. We shouldn't have situations like Oregon vs Ohio State.
